I was quoted at a minimum 1700$ CAD, assuming no other issue were found. I bought the engine and two trans plus a box full of random parts for 300$. All in, this winter I spent about 1600$ to get it on the road again.
@@invizion4993 Do what i did back in 1992... swap in a 3A engine from an Audi 80. Almost a drop in 2.0 litre replacement. Another more common option would be the 2.0 litres used in the Mk3 Jetta/Golf. Just use the head from one of the older motors like the JH you already have.
Well when the pipe wrench showed up I was done!
When will we see the new engine I don't see any video of it on the playlist?
What's the part number for the tensioner bracket at the very bottom - its the second thing you removed?
What the name/author of the red book you keep referring to?
How much was the machining going to cost on the original stock engine ?
