Looks pretty good inside, I believe it has fd corner seals. Its dirty, but the housings/rotors are in good shape. But the front bearing has copper showing on the barbad(sp?) soft inner liner... So I think im going to completely rebuilt/oil modify and BP the motor.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

sounds like fun and good experience, I need to try that.. all I have is that Bruce video from Atkins but it looks pretty basic

i got a 13b that I want to rebuild but I want to port and stuff LOL.

I tried to do my TB(Spare) and got more material off my fingers than the TB so im scared to do my own port. I don't think grinding stones are the tool for the job huh? It scracthed it up pertty good but as we speak im sanding it by hand.



I hope your rebuild goes good post details of THE LEARNING experiencs. so us less fortunate Rotor heads have a heads up!

BigTurbo74 08-08-2003 12:01 AM

haha i've like memorized that video. i know the shop manual is a very good text reference too.
