Vacuum leaks, imminent engine rebuilding...

Post by ShiroiKaze »

It's finally warm enough to play outside, a great day to tackle the Fiat. Turns out the engine is not an 1800 like I was told, it is a 2L upon closer inspection 132C3 031. Also they destroyed the plenum gasket when replacing it somehow...why it failed emissions with a dilluted sample. This has been a trend with all the "work" these guys did. Also one of the injectors was not properly seated in the manifold, and 3 out of 4 seals look new...almost nice. It needs a head gasket anyway, so...a refresh on seals gaskets, bearings and rings, clutch...maybe a valvejob...and 7,643,324$ later, it will run like new! Well...it is such a good feeling when it is all new and fresh...almost good enough to forget what it cost to get there...
