    Couple pointers from a guy who has an 02z.... while youre "in there" replace the throwout bearing with one with a remote bleed hose. The factory design allows dust from the clutch to contaminate the fluid over time. Even gently driven cars have it happen and when it does, the clutch will stick to the floor. Other option is to keep an eye on the fluid color and change it with a suction gun. pull out the old black fluid, add new, pump the clutch a few times, and repeat till its clear. With the remote bleeder you can flush the system and add new in just a few min... also, above the clutch pedal theres an additional spring that adds to the problem that should be removed. its there to reduce pedal effort but only serves to make the pedal stick to the floor sooner with dirty fluid. I noticed little extra effort but better clutch feel. The daytime running lights get super hot and melt the plastic housing. Regular LED's will cause the turn signals to hyper flash so one with resistors are necessary. Check the rear sway bar links and replace with better ones if worn and make a clunk sound. Thats everything thats caused me problems since brand new and 64k miles. Awesome cars!

      @Garagetopics  6 лет назад

      Thanks a lot man! I'm definitely replacing the throw out with the trans out and def doing the remote bleeder - idk how anyone bleeds it without! I will take a look into those other issues you mentioned as well

    adding oil in a cylinder will naturally increase psi. what the oil test is to do is determine whether you are losing compression via the piston and or rings or through the valve and our seats

    The large ring gap doesnt make sense. Thats why is was smoking, but did whoever rebuilt it gap it wrong? Or did a piece break off?

    • @Garagetopics
      @Garagetopics  6 лет назад

      It still baffles me - the ring is not broken nor are there any broken pieces in the engine. We think that cylinder had way too much fuel and it started to eat itself over time due to the fuel washing oil away from the cylinder walls. I cant wait to get it back on the road, I'll be sure to make some more videos soon.

    My 01 z06 burns oil. It was a known issue on some of the LS6’s. I got 110000 on mine before the #1 lifter collapsed and trashed the cam. Now I get to pull mine. I did my tear down just like you thank God for ziplock and sharpies. Subbing...

  • @DanielGlowicz
    @DanielGlowicz 6 лет назад +2

    Oh man I just went through this, but I didn't know my engine was bad until it lost oil pressure 6 months later XD. I had massive consumption and thought it had to do with an improper installation of a PCV kit. Oil contamination definitely leads to bearing failure. LS2 shortblock kits are pretty economical and a nice performance boost. Don't be ("I didn't want to screw anyone over" => puts truck engine in corvette) that guy!

  • @keithlane4343
    @keithlane4343 6 лет назад +6

    I was happy to see you had 56 psi of oil pressure, so I was thinking it should be easy to rebuild without too much expense, but then you mentioned your lube oil had been diluted with fuel. Depending on how long it ran like that will determine what was damaged. Look at it this way, you got a great deal on the Vette. If you have to major rebuild everything, you'll have a zero mile engine in the FRC style Corvette that you mentioned you really liked. Now would be a good time to figure out exactly how fast you want to go, and build your new engine accordingly. Best of luck

    It's probably not the tune because the problem is in one cylinder only. I'd say leaky injector or previous owner installed wrong rings on that cylinder. Anyway a good candidate for nitrous on that cylinder.

    • @Garagetopics
      @Garagetopics  6 лет назад

      Haha the ring gap is asking for boost! I think it's a combo of tune that washed down all the cylinders and a bad injector on the cylinder that got eaten up bad.

      I hadn't watched all your videos. I have a chance to purchase a 03 Z06 that I have 'had custody of' for the last 5 years. The car is built to an insane level (put out 1005hp on the dyno stand / about 850 to the wheels). The car as it sits is about a 6.5/10 scale. The car's owner has recently told me to "come up with a number"....just looking for some perspective.
      I've recently gotten into some small projects with the car that have snowballed into larger ones - I've been chasing fuel leaks as the whole car is done in stainless braid.
      I dig your videos. I've been kicking the idea around of starting a 'video blog' / youtube channel of sorts...you've stirred that up for me again. Lol

    You know, if a tune is that bad then all cylinders would be washed out with too much fuel, and at least 1 bank. But seeing as how it's only that single piston, and all other 7 were perfect makes me think it wasn't the tune and that you probably had a leaky injector. There's no way for the tune to only be "bad" on one cylinder and not the others at least in that same bank.

    • @Garagetopics
      @Garagetopics  6 лет назад

      I believe it was a combo, every cylinder was washed out due to too much fuel in the tune, but one cylinder that was bad definitely had something bad going on with the injector for sure
