Great video! Had no idea about the piston rings gaps lining up def something I’ll do in the future.

Nice video i’m getting ready to do my 2.4 L engine and I have a question I see in the video you didn’t hone the cylinder. We do you flex hone the cylinder?

@factoryratgarage 20 күн бұрын

My cylinder bores still had factory cross hatching so I didn’t feel a need to fe-hone them. If they would have been glazed or smooth I would have honed them but I didn’t see a need. Good luck with your build. Thanks for watching.

How do you get that ladder to fit in the toolbox?

Is pulling the engine a big hassle? 4 cylinder - I figured you would save time in the long run doing both the timing and the pistons out of the vehicle.

I’ve actually pulled this engine and transmission once before to replace the transmission, that had a broken wave plate which is a common problem.I felt it was easier to do it the way I did it by just dropping pan.

Nice work! Was it all silicone and no gasket on the oil pan?

@factoryratgarage 10 ай бұрын

Thank you, and yes just the silicone, no gasket from factory.

Awesome video, bro. How did you come to the decision of not honing the cylinders for the new rings? I apologize if you mentioned that during the install. I'm asking because I'm wondering how far to go on a 2011 chevy malibu 2.4 that my mother in law gave me. Has 190k miles, and I'm replacing the timing and everything involved with that, and I'm wondering if I should remove the head and possibly rering the pistons. I have done a ton of research, and everyone does differently. I like your content, so I wanted your opinion if you would share it with me. I know the cars history and lack of maintenance. I would like the car to last as long as I can make it last. The reason I want to remove the head is that she kept having to have coolant added with no visible coolant leaks and areas around the engine with dried coolant to indicate a leak. I would appreciate your take on how far you would go and about honing before you put new rings. Thanks bro I appreciate any advice, and your content is awesome. Thank you!!

So I didn’t hone the bores because they still had good visible cross hatching from the factory and I didn’t see the need to hone them if they looked fine. If they were glazed and no visible crosshatching I would have honed. Mine is still running daily to this day. It sounds like yours might need a head gasket if it’s losing coolant, it could be leaking into the cylinder and burning off. That could be why no visible leaks on the outside. I hope this helps, good luck on your build and thanks for watching.

Thank you for the reply. That's awesome bro glade to hear she's still running strong.

No need to hone cylinders? Just curious. I've always heard cylinders need to be hone if installing new rings.

@factoryratgarage 4 ай бұрын

So I could still see really good cross hatching on the cylinder walls so I didn’t see a need to hone them. If they were glazed over maby I would, but my rings seemed to seal just fine. Still running over a year later daily driving.

Im curious. Im fixing my Sisters colbolt with the 2.2 L engine. The timing guides broke, and I replaced the timing chain and guides. I've scoped the valves because of significant ticking. They look good. Maybe a bit dirty. I was thinking of just replacing the arms and adjusters. I've dropped the oil pan and cleaned out the intake screen. Would you think its imperitive to go the hole distance, and do the pistons and valves? Thanks

@JCGible 10 ай бұрын

Right now, everything is back together. Ive removed the covers and Im waiting on the adjusters.

@factoryratgarage 10 ай бұрын

I only replaced what was broke on mine, and I replaced the rings cause I had really bad blow by. I would say if you if it’s all together and runs ok I’d leave it. I hope this helps. Good luck.

No. It uses oil now like a normal car. Night and day difference in oil consumption and it’s a daily driver since the rebuild. Good luck on your build.
