It was time for big service , namely a bit earlier than planned by 249.000 km . First of all let me say that Ghunter (thats how i call my car) left me beside the road - twice . The reason for non-participation was speedsenzor G28 and because of that I decided for big service of engine and some other stuff.
... so its started ...
… valve cover was cleaned befor 20.000 km – its still the same …
… the oil pump dismantled …
… to clean the dirt on the grill …
This is not the only reason for the removal of the oil sump and the oil pump but the reason to take off rod bearings – just for prevention.
… New freewheel clutch pulley for altenator …
… new coolant flange new coolant thermostat and new thermostat gasket (O-ring) …
… new oil breather pipe with gasket (O-ring) and new retaining spring …
… but since the change of all plastics, which was on the way to falling apart because of age , it would be absurd not to replace the guide funnel …
… new timing chain tensioner gasket …
… new gasket for throttle body and gasket for intake manihold ...
… new valve cover gasket …
… new spark plugs …
… and a lot of other stuff …
.... to be continued ...
