Hmm I guess I didn’t think about that! I haven’t had a issue with it yet, knock on wood but wouldn’t hurt to change it your right

I’m unsure exactly why it burnt the valve, it had a misfire in cylinder 3. The coils and plug were replaced, then just drove again until this happened 😅 I replaced the valve and seals and gaskets required to do the job and it ran fine afterwards

@dirtykurty92 Bad driver 🙂

Possibly but it ran well after the repair

@@ToasterYoaster I got it loose off camera 🤣 I’ve definitely seen them glued to the radiator before I had to cut one off one time

@@dirtykurty92 I was thinking about that but I don’t wanna break the plastic attached to the radiator.

@ToasterYoaster yea I had no choice but to cut it before, just slowly cut down till I thought I was deep enough then used a screw driver to crack the plastic hose to get it to release. They definitely don’t just fall off sometimes 😂

@@515FLTRXS correct! I did almost all the work myself! New rods too! Only thing I didn’t do was polish the crank, and I got the heads cut and a fresh cut on the valve seats. It’s been in my dads 81 corvette for the last 4 years now still running strong

​@dirtykurty92 Nice man! Glad to hear it, we work with what we got... Dining rooms included sometimes!

@515FLTRXS got to love it! I appreciate your comments!

@@JimmyManan so is it the mirror itself is pointing in the wrong position? Like the function when you put the car in reverse the mirror points down?

@@dirtykurty92 First, thanks so much for responding to my question. The mirror clicks into place, or the pin is functioning, but the placement of the whole mirror housing is askew or incorrect. The position of the mirror housing is too near to the door, and as a result, the mirror can't be directed toward the rear-side traffic, what I see is only the panel of the door.

@Jimmymanan hmm so the housing is stopping but in the wrong spot from the sounds of it? It does move correct? If it moves maybe it lost it home position, I would try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, then try to manually place the mirror where it should be, and then reconnect the battery and then try to press the button to get it to move on its own, see if that helps

Be gentle well trying to manually move it as to not break anything hahah

@@dirtykurty92 I purposely not touch the folding mirror button, but last week I accidentally did, and the both driver and passenger side mirror became out of whack, folding out to the extreme position. But I manually placed the driver mirror in a "pinned" position which is correct, but unfortunately on the passenger side it is "askew" or "incorrect." I probably will open the cover, clean it and spray some W40 into those crevices like you did. Hope it works.

@@michaelwindle6894 your correct, I never had any issues with blowing head gaskets or over heating, and the deck was straight with a straight edge so why spend the extra money for this power level

It really does! I love it

@kylewess9210 thank you! Got to love the sounds of an old school v8!

@finkjm I did not disconnect the battery to do this repair! Good luck!

Thank you I love it

The best side skirts in my opinion! @alexraya1071

You could definitely call it that too! 13621433077 is the part number, if you look it up bmw calls it BMW Auxiliary Fan Switch

@@Sixsicdix here is your sign to pull it out and put it into a 240sx! 🤣

@@hkvp9tactical418 awesome you got yours working and this comment might help others if they do the same! I appreciate the knowledge!

At that point replace. It’s a matter of time.

@ I agree, maybe worth a shot if your waiting for new parts but that thing was cooked

@vincentenciso536 I just sent it. Haha you can drain the coolant if you want to be alittle more proper. I’d suggest doing an oil change after the repair too.

You don’t need to get it out, it will just dry up or burn off and go out the exhaust

It took me maybe 2 weekend days and 2 days after work, but I was filming all the video so it definitely took a bit longer then it could have. I think if you had all the tools in front of you, you can do it in one weekend. @Oscar-is-thankful

Puttin it dooowwwwnnnnnn

I’d use fcp euro, just type in the year and model of your car and it’s easy to search!

I actually sold it a while ago @mikemartinez661

@@paladain55 what you want to know! I believe pretty much stock motor, stock ecu

@@dirtykurty92 Exhaust sound sick. vvti motor? Longtubes into a y pipe?

@MohammedEmranM hey! Sorry to hear your experiencing troubles getting your hood to open! So I’m trying to understand the situation you’re in, are your cables hooked up or no? If the cables are not hooked up the only way I know would be to strike the lock mechanism arm, it is definitely not easy and a bit of force is required to don’t be afraid to hit it with some force once you know your on the arm. If the cable is hooked up still, you can remove the lever from inside the car and put some vise grips on them and pull the cable manually that way, you can get alittle more movement in the cable and some times that little extra is all you need

@danyxxl8634 thank you ❤️❤️

Which one are you looking for the spring compressor or the leak down tester that’s used to pressurize the cylinder? @wette92

@CubanoAmericano2008 your definitely right I should have and always should use a jack stand! No problem hope this video helped!!

I love it! Thank you man! I don’t have any plans on selling mine either!

@emmycurtis778 I haven’t added up all the parts, I do have all the receipts for everything and can get you an exact number for everything if you want, but I’d say around 3000$ for the engine build, I’m sure you could do it cheaper if you wanted to but I replaced basically everything. But I did almost all the work myself so only labor in that is planing the heads and cutting the valve seats/ polishing crank

I did buy everything new too, if you looked around you could definitely find deals. Like this the intake and exhaust manifolds, carburetor, cam, and you definitely could get away with not replacing pistons and rods if your just going for alittle more spice

@@dirtykurty92 incredible. Didn’t realize that. Love learning about this stuff. Thanks for sharing.

No it’s a 240sx with a kit

@@TakeshiZen wow! I’d definitely replace that with the proper part! It’s pretty inexpensive and easy to replace

@@TakeshiZen fcp euro sells them, with a life time replacement warranty

Dang quick response lol Preciate that and yeah I’m ordering a new valve cover, ignition coils, spark plugs, crankcase hose and pcv valve haha

@@TakeshiZen hahahaha no problem! Nice I have a few other videos on doing all those jobs! If you have any questions don’t be afraid to ask!

Maybe use some penetrating oil on it, give it some small taps with a hammer,(nothing crazy), try putting it in a vise or something that will hold it steady and use a hammer and chisel to gently tap it out upwards. It’s probably just rusted in there

@alangranton9601 awesome very happy to help!!

@naders5 yes I definitely thought about it, but to find something that is high quality, and the fittings and extras I would have needed, it didn’t seem worth it to me. I think unless it’s done right the braided lines can look trashy

@@dirtykurty92 true I have heard they are prone to leaking

@naders5 I figure if you use quality parts like oem bmw it should last another 15 years like the originals did
