As I was observing the application of the RTV silicone I was actually thinking “that is one of the neatest jobs I’ve ever seen when it comes to RTV silicone” And then you explained exactly that, I wish more would understand why it’s important to not put too much silicone. Well done buddy and keep going! You are doing a great job! It’s a true pleasure to watch your videos.
Thanks for watching! Years ago, I found a BMW factory engine assembly video and saw a robot applying RTV silicone on the timing cover. I was amazed, and ever since, I’ve been trying to imitate that.😀
@@W15Garage thank you i will try and make a success of it ,appreciate the knowledge and detail you put into your work and seeing different videos of yours gives me quite abit of confidence in rebuilding it.🙏
@@nazeer3495 If everything is measured properly, good quality parts are used it’s really easy. The only tricky part in your rebuild is going to be the cranckshaft…hopefully it’s not developed micro cracks on the spun bearing side, and can be saved.
When I rebuilt the bottom end of my X3 N57, I used Kolbenschmidt bearings with great results, but I had to wait a considerable time to get them. King is a good alternative.
That plastic pipe on the side of the head @9:51 is prone to cracking at the seems or leaking from the gasket. Always worth changing when the inlet manifold is off.
Brilliant so pleased for you and it sounds sweet👌glad your efforts have paid off,lovely neat job to with the rtv sealant,enjoyed watching this one 👍keep up your great work
Delighted for you, well done. I'm almost ready to fit a water damaged engine in my vauxhall vivaro van after a full rebuild also, wish me luck I have the same result 🙏
Thanks for watching, appreciate it! Good luck with your project! Nothing compares to the feeling when the car starts after a rebuild.😃 Let me know how it goes
Great Job! It would be nice to see a small detail of the car before goes to sell 😉 What is the brand of rod bearings that you use? I notice one eBay a brand called “king” but I don’t know if they are any good…
@@Fabio_T26 thanks for watching! it is recommended to install them empty, when lifters are filled with oil before installation, they can cause valve clearance issues and may prevent the valves from closing properly, potentially leading to starting difficulties or misfires, after installation the lifters will automatically fill with oil as the engine runs and builds pressure.
@@W15Garage thanks to you for sharing your knowledge and passion, like all of us that love Cars like you! In all of your video you never prime engine before First start After rebuild...why you crank It "dry"? Assembly lube It Is not sufficient for bearings After all of those steps of cranking...
It’s not always on camera, but I always crank the engine 3-5 times with the injectors disconnected after every timing chain job or engine rebuild to build up oil pressure. While assembly lube is beneficial, it does not replace oil pressure. The timing chain tensioners, lifters, bottom end, and the entire engine depend on sufficient oil pressure.
@@justysone100 Hi, it’s performing spot-on. The oil pressure is good, and the power delivery is strong. I’ve clocked about 2,800-3,000 miles in total, and now I’m keeping it as a spare engine. In the meantime, I’m rebuilding another one, this time with ACL bearings. All the best!

@@nemz7505 yes it’s the coolant hose connector, common n47d20 issue. Original part is around £22 it’s worth replacing.

@@duartegomes9455 thanks. King bearings among experts is a well known brand, they have a wide range of racing bearings as well.
Awsome work buddy...one question...i clean the hydraulic valve lifters, but i dont know how to reinstall them...empty or full of fresh oil? Thank you

Where are you connecting the oil pressure gauge ?
@@CarlAlbermarle Where the oil pressure sensor would go
Hello sir.can i ask how is the engine doing until this day? How many kms has it done?
