I love the backyard mechanic get it done with what you have style of rebuild. Goes to show you can rebuild an engine w/o needing a large resurfacing machine, specialized bore honing or dedicated valve cutting/lapping. Sure having those things would make the job MUCH simpler and give far greater control and tolerances but it still can be done with readily available tools/ equipment & a good amount of knowledge in what to do.
Wouldn't it have been better to purchase and install a reman ? Just the knowing if eng rebuild fails the rebuilder is responsible . Most reputable rebuilders have a labor clause to cover your labor. Should be able to R&R eng 2days. Just my experience.
@@theforkliftguy your the mechanic and " you " know what they need, I understand what your saying,but let something go wrong with it and they become defensive with you. Nice to be friendly with customers but they need to trust your input on how and what needs to be done. All in all enjoy the video's
@ make sure nothing goes wrong and have customers who trust you lol not that difficult lol if you can rebuild and they aren’t pressed for time, do it. If you suggest a reman and they approve it, do it. Like I said, all comes down to what the customer wants and is willing to pay.
I learned my lesson lol but hey it wasn’t too bad of a rebuild. I will say, the material they choose in the metals, is trash. I see why it would be a throwaway engine.

Wouldn’t it be easier to transport the forklift to your shop?
Yeah, for sure.

@@joepacheco4038 all depends on the customers wants and needs. Every situation is different. I would agree, installing a Reman is always easier.

I work for a doosan dealer and we call those hyndui engines throwaway engines. We hardly ever rebuild them usually just buy a new one
