It can be replaced in the car, you just have to remove whatever is in front of it, in my case thats the injection pump. I've tried JB twice but the coolant makes its way through before the JB can harden. Its slowed significantly but there is still a pinhole left.

He said below 3200 that you have less torque than he does. Your dyno run is one gear right? On the street (as he said) this will prove to be more useful. Of course having the top end power that you do is useful as well. I personally would rather have the low end torque. I would imagine a slush box will make boost sooner through the rpms once you are going, but personally I will take the low end grunt any day.

Why don't you drain the coolant before you apply the JB? Or am I missing something... I believe they make little tools to remove the plugs when the engine is still in the car...

The cooling system in this engine already had a rust issue that was a royal PITA to clear up. I'd like to keep air exposure to a minimum so I don't have to go through that again.

In other news...

Disassembled and cleaned the leaking #2 injector and its finally sealed.
Pulled the #5 prechamber hoping to find the cause of the nailing and found nothing. The piston top looks good and the prechamber looks normal. Swapped in my good spare with no change to the sound. At this point its now a "live with it" issue. But at least its combustion nailing and not mechanical knocking like with the 240's engine.

The ignition tumbler finally jammed for good and left me stranded, only 2 miles from home.

I called AAA but the request of "bring a drill and 3/16 bit" pretty much made their brains explode. Three hours later the truck finally arrives. Then the tow driver damn near ripped a gash in the frame before I stopped him and pointed out the tow loops on each end of the car. To top it off I had to listen to his "9/11 was a conspiracy" bullshit the whole way home.

Now I've got go drive the other car to work, get my drill and get that damn steering lock out of there. Rolleyes

It always had two keys. Drilling destroys the lock body so there's no way I can reuse it. I'll see if Tom Judd has one from his parts cars.

That sucks, any idea whether its valve or ring related?

This may have absolutely no relevance to the problem at hand or how the MB valve operates since I have never played with them apart from adjustments, but on an old low compression straight six bronco I had, we were able to improve compression slightly by rotating the valves without breaking the whole motor down.
In that case, there was an issue with the valve seating across 2 cylinders.

I guess it helps clean the rings!

I think with the tank of B50 a few months ago, synthetic 15W50, no crankcase gasses going back into the intake, 6.6gph water injection (its used about 10 gallons so far) and daily Italian tuneups, carbon should pretty much be gone from the cylinders. Wink It still averages 23.4mpg too.

FI, I am curious what 90 elbow you used for your air filter to turbo connection. Is it just a generic one, or did you cut the stock to 90?

Its fairly common if you look at every car, especially domestics. There have been occasions where I needed to stash something (don't want to carry it around the lot, for example) so I just put it in a car's trunk and lock it. Most people won't take the effort to force open a trunk. I even left a manifold in the trunk of a Volvo for a week before I remembered it! Big Grin

Its fairly common if you look at every car, especially domestics. There have been occasions where I needed to stash something (don't want to carry it around the lot, for example) so I just put it in a car's trunk and lock it. Most people won't take the effort to force open a trunk. I even left a manifold in the trunk of a Volvo for a week before I remembered it! Big Grin

We used to use SS wire to attatch the keys to the column. Made us alot more money on the column sales & less destruction.

Just a quick video accelerating onto the highway to test microphone placement. I'll get a good 0-60 video this weekend.

That sounds nice!

Is the fuel consumption figure still in this ballpark?

Did you repaint the needles? The yellow on the gauges looks almost orange so I am assuming its original. Good god that is loud. Where is the mic, in the engine bay?

i hate people who do that. every time i come across a w123 where someone did that, i make an extra effort to open the trunk up because obviously there is something good in there that someone wanted to bogart for themselves.
