Things don’t go well…..
Well it’s all in and had it running for 10 mins to flush out the oil and water ways I’ll do another oil and filter change and see how it fars on a test drive up and down my drive. But I think there has seen alot of oil starvation to the oil pump so think it might have to come back out and have new bottom end. Russ only run the car for around 1 minute befor noticing the problem and shut it off straight away. The reason I never stripped the bottom end completely down was due to it all looking ok and no signs of bearing or other material in the oil that come out.
Should it be worst case scenario I have a spare long block out my car which I was holding onto but as Russ’s need is greater than mine and I won’t to wave the car good buy with him behind the wheel rather than on the back of another tow truck 🙁 I will do all it takes to make this happen for him
I think long and hard about this, and talk to the Mrs who agrees to push on with the build and i buy matts bottom end
