Mu brain kicks straight into ‘is there a way around it’ mode. Parts are less likely to fall into the chambers if you roll the motor onto it’s side almost upside down. There are specialized glow plug extractor kits available from Repco etc…. The problem is that common. You may have thought of these already😉
Yeah have mate, but I was in two minds about pulling the heads off anyway…so this has just locked me into it. Can use the money for that tool toward the machining 😂. Such a pain but I’ll then have basically a new engine (save for doing the bottom end)
ive been there, and done that, with different engines. i feel your pain. i snapped a a plug in my vdj 200 v8, i thought, fuck it. i,m not pulling the engine down. it starts and runs fine on 7 plugs. but you,ve broken more, i would have gone and got drunk.
@@skillosshed oh, one more thing. i had an injector get loose and cause damage, so i checked the other injector hold down bolts and 5 were out of torque spec.. there's only one small bolt per/injector. i recommend checking them.
Hey Mate, Where did you get the bottom end specs from? I have a Haynes manual but it does not have the specs and measurements for the crank, bores, pistons etc...

@@skillosshed the Haynes one is useless for a full bottom end rebuild, I had to go elsewhere for torque specs. In fact i dont know how you found it mate but i have the exact same manual and i didnt find it terribly useful
@clintb8786 nah I didn’t do a bottom end rebuild so I guess I managed to escape your pain. I just did the heads and everything else. I found it quite useful for that.
wow man i literally cried for you watching this....
I know right…had a good ending though 😎
Shit mate I feel your pain good luck with it 👍👍

Nah I didn’t measure anything on bottom end…just an eyeball. Not sure where those specs are
Hi mate, what repair manual do you have / using. I am finding it hard to get one on the V8.?

I’ve rebuilt my 1VD, I got the Toyota service manual from the ih8mud forums - has fully instructions on rebuilds, torque etc
