Renault 5 GT TURBO- Installing CRANKSHAFT and cylinder liner.

In this video I proceed with the engine rebuild on the Renault 5 GT TURBO.
This time I measure the cylinder liner protrusion and install both the crankshaft and the camshaft.
I measure the bearing clearance and crankshaft end float with a micro measure clock and plastic gauge.
This engine is being rebuild because of a massive engine failure due to the fact that someone in the past had installed the wrong cylinder head, and also filled the engine with liquid sealant which had clogged all the oil passages...
The engine ended up cracking a piston.
Please keep in mind that I do this as a hobby, and I am not an expert in anyway. Use my videos as a inspiration.

To prime the oil pump just remove the king lead from the distribution cap and crank the engine till the oil light goes off. Keep up the good work. I had a white 1991 model and it still one of my favourite cars.

Thanks! But what I meant was to prime the oil pump without cranking the engine... I think it is possible if you take the distributor out and the pinion gear for that- then you should be able to spin the oil pump with the right adapter... :)

Seaside Garage fair enough. As you have greased all the components I would say it will be fine to prime while cranking as it will only take a few turnovers to get oil circulation.

Seaside Garage I rebuilt my C1J did it this way and was fine. I think your way could be a lot of effort for no real advantage. Can’t wait to hear the engine start. K

Nice to do this as a hobby! What is the name of the manual that you use ?

Hi Seaside Garage, do you know, if the plastic guage crush width is outside tolerance, are different thickness shell bearings available to remedy this? Or is it a crankshaft regrind job? Thanks for your great videos!

@SeasideGarage 2 жыл бұрын

There is oversize shells but the crank needs to be regrind to that specs... On this engine the crank is pretty cheap though... :)

Great videos. I am also rebuilding my c1j and have installed the cylinder liners but have not measured the protrusion. Now with the gasket in the cylinder liner I have a protrusion of 0.1 / 0.15mm. In your opinion is that correct? Thanks a lot if you want to help me

Thanks! Well, they need to be measured without the seals on the turbo model... I would take them out and measure them without.. (but then you need new liner gaskets again... A leak in those is not good... :)

No specs in the volvo and daf manual. Only the 55-65nm for the bolts. Can ask at the dafclub if you like..

@SeasideGarage 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you! yes that would be great! I expect everything to be good when both rods, crank and bearings are new... but still I would like to measuring it...!
