I’ve had success getting rust/staining out of a cylinder with a coat of Marvel mystery oil, letting it sit, then wiping and repeating a couple times. I know this advice is a little too late but maybe if you run into it again.
Loaded question: What's you oil of choice? I saw you put rotella T4 10W30 in. Do you use that for turbo EJ's or is there another you prefer? I hear Rotella T6 5W40 is really good for turbo EJ's. Just wondering what your preference is. Thanks for the video! I have a hatch WRX that I just put a short block in. Just finished break in on it.
For most all of my startups I use rotella t4 10w30 because it’s cheap, and I run it in my “beater” ej20x STI, because I don’t like spending a lot of money on oil for it. Awesome on the new shortblock! I have seen people running 5w40 also. I’m not an expert on what’s correct/better, but I’ve had good luck with 10w30.
I really like your videos I will like to see like 2 or 3 videos a week pls
For the cam bolts I used the 10mm impact style with magpolish in the socket. Then I buy any alternative cam bolts and cam gears lol
Nice
Keep up the good work
Thank you

I’ll keep it in mind! It cleaned up ok, we’ll see if it lasts
