    I'd change the oil, unplug the injectors then crank it if it runs to build some oil pressure before you start it. Also, check the fuel to see if there's any water in there.

    • @aqib2000

      Checking if it is building oil pressure now makes no difference if the engine previously was abandoned due to an oil pump issue. I’d do this check after it runs considering the state of the car

  • @NicholasDomenichini

    This could be a great car, it could also be a nightmare. The Vanos solenoids being gone is a big problem since rust could then get all up inside the timing chain and down on the pump, which would be pretty bad. I highly recommend taking a boroscope around inside the timing cover at the front (probably take out the timing chain tensioner for a good view) and inside the cylinders to see what you're working with. Hoping for the best!!!

    • @jake_spence
      @jake_spence  Рік тому

      Yeah, I was bummed out when I saw they were gone. She's been exposed for who knows how long. Going to add cheap oil and see what happens lol.

    • @NicholasDomenichini
      @NicholasDomenichini Рік тому +1

      There's a good chance whoever went through and ripped the DME, cats etc. out also pulled those, and if it was right before it got to you the damage could be minimal. Those solenoids are pretty crammed in the front and if the hood was left down, you have a really good chance I think.
