No, it will come out with the case.
if I have to replace oil cooler gasket not seal do I need to remove oil
relief valve. gasket around oil cooler case
Extremely well-done, TheCousinDan; a well-spoken and articulate
walk-through. I’m saving this puppy!
Oh goodness, yes. I need to fix that, I meant to say 15/16. Thanks for the
heads up.
Yeah, because someone posted on a forum that bad engine mounts can crack
the pickup tube and we did change mounts also which were indeed gone. Now
the car is smooth like new
This could be a new commercial for meijer? hehe
Hey, I appreciate the kind words!
Maybe something broke lose and is jammed in a channel in the block. I’m at
a loss though, any luck on Rennlist?
Go to the Clarks-garage website and you will find how-to write-ups on most
everything. Very great resource. Also, make an account on Rennlist and
read/ask question comment threads in the 944 forum.
Use the release valve, it works just as well.
Hey! How did you get that %!$@#^%! bolt in the upper right hand corner of
the assembly. I can remove all of the other bolts except for that one –
help!
Hey Dan. I lost oil pressure in 1983 944 non turbo. because my engine
vibrated a lot at idle , i suspected the pickup tube cracked due to bad
mounts. Removed oil pan and found pick up tube perfect. The OPRV piston
which is a plain one (no oring) is smooth and looks good. Pls guide me what
could be wrong ? I see no oil leaks around oil cooler . Thanks !
Oh man! I’m glad to hear you figured it out, but dropping that pan is a lot
of unnecessary work! At least you can rest assured that your pick up tube
is functional. I’ve seen a 944 engine die because of that failure.
GREATE VIDEO!! getting my 944 next week, cant wait! 😀
how many miles did this happen to you at?
Hi Dan. My 944 only has 41K miles. The oil sensor is out of the equation
because I heard the lifters making a terrible sound so i immediately shut
the engine off. Any other advice? Please.
Dan, i cant find the alignment tool anywhere. Can i borro
Why yes!!! I am part of a 944 club and we have seen most any problem. I
have worked on several myself, what do you need info on, I’d be happy to
help.
do you have any other info on any other repair on the car? i have a tough
time finding something on my 87 944 turbo
Minor issue, 24 mm and 5/16″ are two very different sizes. 5/16 is just
under 8 mm. This is a nice review, of a procedure I’ve never done before.
Good job.
Hmmm. Sounds like maybe you just have a bad sensor. BE CAREFUL WITH THAT
DIAGNOSIS!!! You don’t want to assume it’s something that simple with a
system this important. But those sensors DO go out from time to time. As I
was reading your comment, I was thinking pick-up tube immediately, but
you’ve already looked at it (did you pull the engine for that pan removal,
or are you just a geometrical wizard?). I will keep pondering this one (in
the meantime look at Rennlist.com for ideas).
i got 106, i hope this doesn’t happen to me anytime soon..
Great video Dan, keep-em coming. I just bought my first bike,it’s a 92
cbr600 f2, has some cracks and i don’t really like the paint, so i’m going
to follow the video you did on your cbr’s cracks and pain. I dont know if
you structure your videos before you start filming but the way you explain
the step by step procedure is very easy to understand, especially for
someone who isn’t at all familiar with the subject at hand.
you saved me a lot of headache on trying to figure this out
160ish
Very good to hear.
well im getting ready to tear apart the top end of my motor and i need to
know what would be a good idea as far as what steppes to take, in what
order to do them in, what are the good brand parts to use, and what are the
best procidures to putting it all back together correctly? if you could
help out in any way i would be very happy for your advice. thanks
Hey Dan. Thx for answer but I have to tell u , the problem was a simply
loose main pulley bolt which we torqued to 150 ft lbs after going thru all
the unnecessary hassles
great video, thanks!
So did this fix your problem?
