Very cool 3D printing! Which new printer did you get? Personally I much prefer dry filtration, but should still work well of course. That gauge setup came out pretty awesome too. Very motorcycle inspired. With how consistent the compression results were, highly doubt there is anything wrong with the engine. Possible timing is off though? I'd expect at least 40-50 psi higher than that generally. Good stuff!
Flash forge ad5m non pro with an enclosure. It’s smaller than my old CR-10 but so much fast and no failed prints so far. Thank you! Yea I’m still gonna drive it lol
Add oil in the cylinders and do the compression test again . If the reading does not change it’s loosing compression from the valves . I did does increase you have ring / cylinder issues like you saw with the camera but you could also have stuck rings . Try an engine oil flush and check comp again . Good luck !

Really liked the 3D printed parts! When you did the compression test looks like the throttle wasn't opened. If it isn't open you will not get a high reading. Try doing a compression test with the throttle open. If the numbers come up and pretty even across then motor should be ok.
Did you hard solder those lugs or used cold solder? I would buy a hydraulic crimper and crimp those on because (cold) soldering a lug on the big power cables is a fire waiting to happen...
Coming from a Mitsubishi 4G64 guy but, while that’s low compression, the engines not blown. Could be valve seats, could be rings… either way the engine is just worn. But I have seen plenty of people make lots of power on tired engines that had low compression but had forced induction… obviously your NA and so… I wouldn’t expect big numbers but I’d say if your in a time crunch so long as bearings are fine… meh tune it and run it, then buy everything for a engine rebuild and freshen it up later… probably going to burn some oil and be down on power is all.
Amazing build I hope to get 3s for my wagon soon too! 😍 One question I have for alternator battery led light you added in dash. I remove my dash and install tach only but alternator does not charge now. I read I need keep alternator dash light bulb and was wondering if led indicator you used can work same way to turn alternator on or if I need use actual oem 12v dash lightbulb?
Very impressive, on ur creation for the ITB filter box & filter itself ! Got u a new subscriber
Thanks for the sub! It was my buddy who designed the box and machined the intake manifold!
Good luck brother!! Hoping to see some footage of you ripping at that Panic event! The garage and your build are looking really good!
Work life balance, I don’t have any lol thanks
Awesome work! Hope you can get the car up, it's looking great!
Thanks! Working on it!

@@kelvinarreola Great option! I'm eyeing a Q1 Pro, but the 5M was def on my short list.
Your setup is nice and clean I'd like to do it too on my standard KE70 3t
So much potential with a 3tc also!

I’ll try to unstick the rings! Thanks!
@@kelvinarreoladid it work . !
Good luck! I hope to see you at Panic GP again this year.
I’m hoping also!!
you are too cool, i enjoy your videos.
Thanks for watching!!

I did it with the throttle open and a different tester it was a little better

Battery hammer crimp jig and torch with flux and solder after

Yea just gonna rock it for now and freshen it up later

I don’t believe the bulb matters, mine isn’t even working right
Will your 3d printed tail lights work on a 1981 TE72 liftback?
It should yes
What’s that printed out of? ABS? ASA? PA (nylon) something else?
ABS
I smell a temu battery tie down
Amazon prime 3 bucks?
Man you should start a shoppin channel
Yea Amazon prime all day
would you ever put a heat shield near the air filter to prevent it from melting?
I think it will be fine honesty, I’ll just monitor it
What material did you use for the prints?
ABS
