Would be great if you actually showed how to get the dash apart. Bizarrely hard to find info for a micra (which is almost the same)

The tube won’t go in for me

what's the torque on a head cylinder?

You have no clue how much this helps. Thanks cus now I know what little parts I am really missing

Really enjoying this series! Thank you for uploading it! Subscribed! Looking forward to watching the rest of this build.

Oil clerance? Crankshaft? Please

I’m a bit late to the video, and am just starting to get into engine building. I have experience with assembling semiconductor fabrication tools, but not much with engines. Would testing the shaft rotation after every component installation be a good thing to catch any binding points, or are there any downsides to that method? Thank you and I really enjoyed the video!!

I think the problem here was that you were installing the struts on the wrong side. The “L” and “R” designations on the struts indicate left and right as you are sitting in the driver’s seat, not as you are facing the car from the front. If you get them reversed, you will have the problem you encountered. I just installed mine yesterday with no problems.

Thank you so much

Wait.. you’re supposed to bring the engine to operating temp before changing oil? Never did my own oil change but I wouldn’t have guessed that was the proper procedure. Doesn’t it end up cycling throughout the system?

How long it takes to remove engine i got a stealth rt non turbo

Not giving in much. No need to going high speed

Your videos doesn't give much information though

Not only is this being done at the cheap oil change places but also being done at the ford dealership.

Did it bite you in the ass? 🤣

If you go 7nder the car for the filter, then just do oil drain plug style to check for metal and clean off the oil plug magnet. Extractor is better for a mid 20,000 mile or 2 year diesel oil change at the one year or 10k marker. But only if the oil filter sits on top of engine like a canister filter. This gives the long life oil a new filter to keep going strong since the new euro oils are such high quality.

🔥🔥🔥

Great to have you back!

This is the best series I've found on you tube showing the rebuild of a motor

This is gold

Those cone spring washers are hard to find. Otherwise called Belville washers. Loving this video as I'm at a similar stage with my motor. cheers

Best lockers are two bolts with large washers going through the bolt holes on the front cams and bulldog clips. Those tensioner tools are crap. Best to buys as many as you can in one hit.

Great video. Stealth and 3000GT are identical. I work on them and own 2. History (1980s-90s): Dodge partnered with Mitsu due to Chrysler's business objective. GM partnered with Toyota and Ford partnered with Mazda. To make the long story short, Mitsu had the quality and technology so Chrysler had Mitsu design and produce everything, except for the Stealth's exterior design. Dodge did a slight modification of exterior but dimensions were same. Everything else was produced by Mitsu and stamped with Mitsu's 3 diamond logo. Dodge stamped Chrysler logo on exterior sides only. Ultimately, freed up Dodge in 1992 so that they could focus on their ultimate super car...Viper. Reduced some of the high tech items from Mitsu by simplifying and focusing on brute power and cornering...thus, the Viper came to dominate against all high performance cars...

Oh the humanity.......taking thay apart next time is going to be fun with all that rtv ......thats a no no in our shop.

You mention “somebody makes a code reader”. Who and how can they be contacted?

My motor started knocking what should I do

I want to say thank you for making this series and uploading all that you have. I just finished building and finally running my 3000gt and without you I wouldn’t have been able to do that

Started watching cuz I'm pulling and engine this weekend...and what do ya know I'm pulling it out of a black Stealth. What are the odds of that LOL. Wow. Hope this went well for ya, scored a new subscriber. Thanks for the video.

Is it possible on this engine to rotate the crank all by itself clockwise and can sprocket individually in order to line up timing marks? this would be a huge help. Thank you 🙏

Thanks for the video, but that thing is junk, a waste of $200. A man should not have to go to those lengths to use an engine stand. The only hoist I would find it usefel for is a big overhead hoist that it doesn't matter which way the engine is turned you can put it on.

Hello, I watched all 16 parts of this series, great stuff, thanks for sharing! - just dropped off our parts at the machine shop on Tuesday, so in a couple weeks the rebuild will begin

Hey so sweet Stealth! Not that I know it all but your cv boots were already torn before you noticed. Especially the pass. side one; the joint looked very dry. Oil-based grease inherantly destroys rubber and the only fix is to replace the leaker. I bought both front cv axles for my vintage Datsun 4x4 from Rock Auto and the lasted about TWO MONTHS before they BOTH tore on the outboard boots.

That should help with my 1990 Daytona V6.

One year later, still working great. Have had no issues with it and it hasn't caused any adverse issues with the car. Would buy it again if I had another Versa to work on.

Thanks for the video. Any long term issues with this product since you’ve had it? Cheers

I had a 91 Dodge Stealth ES. When it started having issues running and wouldn't start it ended up being the ECU. The capacitors inside the ECU failed and leaked out onto the board causing a short.

@A Geeks Garage, I know it’s been a long time since you’ve finished the Stealth. But do you remember having trouble removing the CV Axles from the transmission? Were they easy to remove or did you have to use any special techniques to get them off in one piece? I did watch your other video on getting them off but in that video they were already out of the transmission just dangling. I watched the other engine removal video to see if there was any explanation there, but there wasn’t any. If you could please help that would be greatly appreciated. I’m going to try to rebuild my transmission this spring when I get the car back from out of storage and I want to make sure I don’t fall into any pitfalls that I know I can avoid. Also, I don’t know if you remember me commenting on one of your videos from earlier this year about the Stealth being finished. But I finally did get my Stealth and I am in love with that car. It’s the most fun I’ve had with a car ever. It just needs some loose ends tied up and it’ll be in great shape! Thanks in advance for your help. (I’ve researched that there are circlips that hold the cv axles to the transmission. That’s my main concern with removing the axles. How to get those clips off so I can simply pull the axle out of the transmission.)

Usually this is caused by one of the 4 girdle stays being installed wrong. The counterweight hits the stay if it’s installed wrong.

Looking good buddy 👍🏼

Nice work sir! She's lookin frikn AWSOME!! Good luck at the show🏆🏆

Good luck. You already won first to arrive 😊

It doesnt help much if you didnt show how to install and calibrate the tps sensor If its not calibrated, there will be improper shift in the transmission and among other things 😂

Awesome bro! How could you get the error code on this older vehicles? I can’t seem to find a scanner for that…

That was useless

I’m trying to find the torque specs for the maxspeedingrods connecting rods. Do you happen to remember what they were?

I followed your advice and we were able to install these struts. However, it seems that the blister on the left side doesn’t fit properly anymore. Actually there is an opening between the blister and the hood. Could that be because of the increased tension the not exactly made to measure struts are putting on the hood? Have you observes this as well?

Sounds like someone learned the hard way

I watch your videos for the dogs. Lololol no seriously, brakes suck. When I did the rears on my Midget the brake fluid that came out was absolutely disgusting. Roasted brake fluid is all I can describe it as. Just South of Starbucks coffee.

Hey buddy did you go one tooth back on the crankshaft gear or did you place it right on the mark? Thank you
