Can you gring a Crankshaft or better buy used one in good condition??

[@BiTurboMechanics]

@@kat0197 It always comes down to how bad the crankshaft has been damaged and the availability of second hand parts. In this instance, I could find a good second hand crankshaft rather easily. Either way, both should work considering you find a good machine shop.

What do you think was the failing point of this engine to begin with?

[@BiTurboMechanics]

Good question which I actually forgot to answer in the video! I believe the issue was caused by all the debris I found in the oil pickup tube. It was clogged with bits of rtv and a lot of hairs so it is pretty self explanatory how the oil pressure got too low for the bearings not to spin. To make sure everything is fine after the install, I used the oil pressure gauge while the engine was at operating temperature and it was reading well over 1 bar of pressure (approx. 1.4 bar) at idle which is well within specifications.

😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂 doesn't clean the piston or replace the rings on it yane wowsers

[@BiTurboMechanics]

Thanks for the comment! Had you watched the complete video, you would have seen that both the piston and the grooves where the rings sit have been thoroughly cleaned. There is no need to replace the rings on an engine I am not doing a complete makeover on, and even so, the car is running perfectly to this day.
