Sadly aunty spambot was over active last night and My wicked boss has been making me work overtime for 2 days now. sad oya let's fire on.....



We stopped at see engine shocked

www.nairaland.com/attachments/5505388_img20170614wa013_jpeg8faf138cb0766afcd7496212d474cb3c

It was a lovely sight to behold, No oil stains, aluminum was the colour of aluminum, bolts where all shiny, and catalyst what very intact and white.
Instantly I knew she was the one I was taking back to mama!

Usually I do a VIN check before I purchase an expensive engine that has its origin from USA or Canada, apart from the usual checks when buying an engine, a vin check can give you insight into what to expect. You can always find the vin tag on the engine or transmission, and it refers to the VIN for the Vehicle the engine/transmission came from

My Vin reports are usually done by the one and only Computerglobal his reports come in quick and are always accurate.

Examples Vin reports that discourage me from buying an engine.

* flood of any kind

* Fires affecting engine area (Fire might have been put out by water)

* multiple users with high mileage (over 300k) awon taxi drivers grin

* sever Front impact the clearly Damaged the engine/transmission frame, but you see a complete engine in the market shocked (awon boys have replaced all broken parts for you, unfortunately they do not always do a good job at that)

Etc.......

You can add yours... grin

Vinreports that give me joy.

* Low mileage rollovers

* Rear impact low mileage

* Minor front impact, engine Not disabled (low mileage)

* Hail damage (Thank you Baba God)

* Insurance Fraud (you will not understand why car was even listed as salvaged grin)

* Side impact low mileage

Etc.......

You can add yours......

More coming up, I do not want to write too much so aunty spambot will not wake up cheesy

So basically I'm getting an engine under 86,000miles front impact, Fair enough wink

Sharply I made payment, and I called my boy who parked on one lonely street with my toyota avensis (to avoid paying 500parking fees) to come and meet me at toyota bustop.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/4049335_img20160714091058_jpegd0d29d82fca283beb7f35ca6628c1061

It was raining, they had trucked the engine to toyota bustop where he was waiting....

Normally this is a job for my old faithful Peugot 406 wagon, but one of you took her from me cry


Note this engine came with every thin apart from the serpentine belt (one sharp guy must have sniped it in the container)

OPENED boot, loaded engine waved every one good by told my boy to move to the front passengers seat while I drive (I do not like being driven)

5seconds into the drive I noticed a wobble on the steering shocked I am like abiodun, wetin you climb!!! angry

We came down and low and behold there was an oil pressure sensor stuck in the front right tyre sad

That is when you know your village people are on your case....... do not forgett I had waved the truck pushers good bye and just placed a how many tone engine and transmission on top my spare tyre in the boot and air is currently leaking out of 1 tyre in front in the rain cry



Digest this one let me encourage a client on remotely follow repair I will be back......

For those of you that want to see a partial re-build, you can check there, there's a similar vehicle with an ongoing engine repair job.



Ok back to tori........

I drove to mobil petrol station on airport road, and replaced the tyre with the spare, I can explain how we shifted the engine, but we sha tried, and the wooden base of the boot was never the same again sad (engine broke it)

Next, just throw it into the engine bay grin

When the old engine was taken out, the main sub frame(beam) was washed to ensure it was clean.(free of ikorodu mud tongue)

www.nairaland.com/attachments/5505348_img20170615163127_jpeg6b2583b6c9c2cbda2abb76c1816fc8d1


I forgot to mention this. New engine came with 1vtech solenoid and 1 vtech pressure switch, so I had to swap in my old one into the new engine cry (ugly dirty body angry )

I washed it thorolly with a wire brush, but mehn if it's not panadol, e cannot fit be like panadol sad

Next is to flush all pipes.

Vehicle just got a new lease of life no point allowing any old aburo fluids in the power steering lines or old oil in the heat transfer transmission cooler lines on radiator.

After flushing

*power steering lines

*A/C lines

*Heat transfer lines for transmission oil from.
Radiator.

Next it was time to wash the actual radiator.

It was filthy

www.nairaland.com/attachments/5514916_img20170616144714_jpegf03a8c67114f1cc420dddab3e0e7d36a

The power steering fluid container was also washed clean.

Engine mount on the front right and base of gearbox also replaced.

Time to install fluids cheesy

Also installed compressor oil ND8 synthetic.

A/C time.......

Pulled a vaccum to ensure no leaks....
It held at -13psi high and -12psi low for over an hour. So for sure my Gas will not be wasted.

Now time for engine oil......

If I here say I waste this engine oil thunder fire me grin

Engine oil was at the full mark and as clear as ororo. I will use this engine oil for 2000miles before changing tongue

going by the vin report, engine oil if synthetic will still be very useable, and it is not contaminated.

Ok time to start vehicle grin.....
