    In this episode, I remove everything from the block of the M40B16 to begin the full, top to bottom, inside out restoration of the 316i touring's engine in coming episodes.
    My mic was just broken so might hear some unwanted bass noises in the voice over. (there's very little of it in this episode anyway) If you're listening to this on a speaker system, turn the bass down until the annoying background bass goes away. Sorry for the annoyance!

    The crystals are dried up residues from the coolant mixing with aluminium oxide.
    When not dried up, its actually a kind of goo clogging up the hoses and thermostat

    Those crystals (and similar) are often caused by stuff like dissolved calcium from hard water when you use tap water, etc. It's why a lot of people now use de-ionised/filtered water to mix with antifreeze. If the engine is in constant use it doesn't build up like that.

    use rattle guns on stuck bolts, generally thell remove them without snapping them
    and use the breaker bar more, putting loads of load on ratchets isnt a great idea

    FYI those core plugs (freeze plugs), easiest way to do them is to deform them first. Use a large punch or even a bolt right in the centre and give them a good hard hit with a hammer until you leave a large dent. Deforming them this way will pull the sides in and make them easier to remove.

    That bushing on the bracket over the oil filter housing comes out in two pieces, through the access hole for the bolt behind you push a flathead screwdriver between the two pieces to separate them then push the rear half of the bushing through the back and front through the front. Can then be reused. No need for fire and hammers lol

    I’m amazed you didn’t open that engine to find a thousand broken pieces in it, given the state of the pump, mate. People who don’t maintain their vehicles have no business owning them. My team sergeant in Special Forces used to say, “Stupidity should be painful and expensive”...what I’ve found is that it’s usually painful and expensive for the next bloke who has to fix everything that’s knackered.
    As for the coolant goo...this is long, but the reading is good and important: BMW has issued a 1991 technical bulletin, 17 01 88(1743), which details problems with what is known as silicate gel precipitation in engines. This is the 'green goo' (yes, it actually says that in the BMW Tech bulletin - gotta love those German translators) that results as a consequence of an antifreeze over-concentration in the coolant, combined with hard water, and the phosphates commonly used in many antifreezes. BMW factory antifreeze has been formulated to prevent this problem of silicate drop-out without any coolant performance loss. This antifreeze contains no nitrites and no phosphates. The part number for a one gallon container is 88-88-6-900-316, and it costs about $13.00 per gallon.

    @arosenberger87 3 года назад

    The crystals depend on where you are in the world and what your country allows in antifreeze. Here in America that's most likely aluminum added to help seal small holes in the coolant system. It is also the reason why you do not mix different types of coolant such as dec cool and plain green. You get a reaction and it plugs up the works.

    The gel like substance in the coolant thermostat etc. will be due to different types of antifreeze being mixed. The chemicals react with each other.

    Thank you very much for this video.
    I'll definitely use it and pt 2 for reference when I strip mine this winter, it's running a lot better than yours was at first thankfully!
    There'll be no excuse for headscratching thanks to how clear and free of bull this was, unlike many maintenance videos.
    Brilliant

    Nice video again! Small tip for the next time, the caps which hold the camshaft are line bored together with the head, so it's good practice to keep the caps in the right place.

    Hope it wasn"t too painful in the editing process with all of the sub-task when I see the number of them ;). By the way, small tip, in case of rounded allen, an other way for extract them consist to "forced" a torx of +- equivalent size, more radical but can save some time.
    So, always a pleasure to follow your adventures and thanks to share them, I finally since last summer begin to go in the right way , sadly not with my dream car, an E30 316 carb^^ (yep their strange), but almost the same period! Good continuation form eastern France ;)!

    Great work mate. The crystals might just be old dried up coolant that stagnated in that spot, looks rough. Id hate to see the inside of the block though might need treating or even a new block, liiks quite rough. Can't wait for part 2.

    Use channel locks for freeze plugs, you can use the block as leverage and it’s a lot less of a hassle

    I can't believe how much debris you found in the oil pump pick up! That would explain why the engine failed. At least the disassembly went easy for you, not to many seized bolts. As for the crystallization you found in the thermostat housing, that's usually what you'll find in an engine block that sat for a long time, also the type of coolant that was used may add to that too. 😁

    Good work as always. Crystals are just old coolant, particularly its it not been changed in a long time and then left sitting the coolant will have settled and then dessicated. As someone else mentioned I would have expected to see sludge or something different if it was mixing with oil.
    EDIT: Looks like that blockage in the oil pickup didn't do your cam much good, time for a new hot 'fast road' cam ;)

      @@RestoreIt No worries and keep up the great work, you're one of the few channels that actually does real work without the all the antics that I look forward to seeing posts from.
      I found a similar post on another (non-BMW) forum that explains the formation of these crystals in a bit more detail: "Tap water, no SCAs,(supplemental coolant additives), incompatible antifreezes mixed and the fact the engine hasn't seen any heat in decades. Its likely silicate gelation caused by the above including using tap water and severe lack of maintenance. Its basically the coolant breaking down. Good lesson why a cooling system needs regular and correct maintenance."
      So in short, as I mentioned above the lack of running, combined with the poor maintence this engine has clearly had over the years, leads to what you found.
