Nothing yet, as it only runs since yesterday!

hum ? I'm going to resell my T4power

No, don't do that! T4 is much better for big street power.
I still have mine too and it will come back even better!

This weekend I disassembled the 2,2 T4 engine as I wanted to change the cam for this season.

Heads, Pistons, cylinders, bearings, crank, all looked great!
Pistons:


Unfortuneately, it turned out that one rod is bend! Look at the second rod from the left:


Anybody have a set of (used) Pauter rods for a 1,7ltr T4 crank I can take over?

I think you reached the stock rods limits!

Did you notice something when the engine was runing with the bend rod?

Superflo a écrit :I think you reached the stock rods limits!

I think it was because of boost-cut and heavy back-fires that caused this.
Stock rods can easily hold 500Nm, even more I think. Not big explosions from rpm limits and/or hard-cuts (fuel cut) on top of that.

Did you notice something when the engine was runing with the bend rod?

Actually turned out 3 rods were bend...
No, not really. I had expected a little more power, so the piston not being straight in the bore must have been a problem, loosing some compression probably.



Fortunatly I found some Pauter rods as replacement

ouch!!!!!!!!big pressure!!!

i don't understand really,boost-cut and heavy back-fires, too much compression and those are the connecting rods wich made fusible

you are really lucky in your misfortune ! you would have been able to explode your engine ?

and the brace had nothing ?

Yes, very lucky probably. I am still amazed that the aluminium cylinders survived and look like nothing ever happened. Even the piston ring-gap is still the original size.

Qu'est-ce que c'est, un 'brace' ?

Qu'est-ce que c'est, un 'brace' ?

oh ! excuse me , i want to say cranksafht !

T4 is much better for big street power.

yes , it 's really a tough engine, the proof !

Crankshaft is spotless and must be straight as all main and bearings were super nice as well:

I noticed this kind of "pitting" on my 2.4L engine, I assumed it was caused by harmonics due to a non-balanced trigger wheel, why do you think?
