First Rotary Engine Tear Down (56k BEWARE)
#1
Well today i got my cherry popped 3 times. We tore down 1 12A engine, and two 13B engines.
12A was in my boys first gen, was leaking oil
13B was in my old 88SE car which for some odd reason wound up back into myhands after 5 years (Small world). I think it had a coolant leak
13B in my 89 GTU that i sold, the engine was seized due to a thrustwasher disintergration.
First we started with the 12a, i was helping here and there with the parts etc. I took pics of the tear down step by step for a future write up.
The 13B from my old 88, i didnt take any pictures of it, was actually getting more hands on.
The second and more messed up 13B from the 89 GTU was done 100% by me, took me a lil bit longer than the other guys, but i did okay. Till i hite one major issue, the thrust washer where the front cover is located was DISINTERGRATED. So i decided to finish it off another day.
Here are some pics enjoy
