[@ghatch69]

that assembly you removed is a combo of an oil pump and balance shafts, the balance shafts reduce vibrations in the engine

[@alt7488]

i saw it and thought dry sump pump ...but why would you put one there

[@ianbaillie6378]

@@alt7488 You wouldn't put a dry sump inside of an actual oil pan.

that stickey stuff is the coating on the windings inside the starter,the windings got hot and melted the coating.in short the starter is shot,finished,gone ,done for and in general broke,gone andreally no good

Great video Randy hopefully you can find a good running engine for that dart. I believe you can get it done in no time. Keep up the great videos my friend shout out to you from Mexico

[@ItsaRomethingeveryday]

If nothing else,,it is a learning experience for you & us, liked watching you do the work on this, I know it can be frustrating having these not work out but with your experience you will come out ahead on this someway, liked vid, keep up the Great work

Balance shaft module.. on modern 4cyl engines it helps keep them from destroying itself. It's also timed with the engine

[@yamahonkawazuki]

Randy my friend, been with this channel for quite along time. here with you no matter which way it works out

[@richardandalex]

I really thought you would get this motor freed up great video thanks for all your hard work. I enjoy all your videos I learn a lot from you and You keep it real

Yes! An update video. I have been checking for vids on the dart for a couple of days now, I am dying to see this thing run!

[@lincolnalbrecht7090]

Great video! Appreciate your determination

[@elizabethcherry920]

The engine has to come out through the bottom, and that thing you were baffled with is a oil pump, a high volume type and it like that for the variable valve timing.

[@gravis346]

Great video! I feel bad that this happening, but it's a great following along with you on this tear down.

[@lustfulvengance]

BSM- balance shaft module (Balance shafts and oil pump all in one)

[@JCA11]

yup, just googled that and saw some piks that fits to a T to wat the absolute hell is that. lol thanks! i was curious too

[@Shane-Singleton]

What an overly complicated hunk of garbage. But I guess when they work they work.

[@Shane-Singleton]

@TheCamshafter I am familiar with balance shafts on certain 4-cyl and V6 engines but didn't know they were using them on diesels. Are they also using the combo oil pump design like this one as well?

[@AnthonyEvelyn]

Look like some crazy Italian design from FIAT. Yes it looks like dual balance shaft integrated with the oil pump. Definitely European design. When working on these Darts check the MOPAR manuals for them.

[@mikewiebers8814]

Shane Singleton What do you expect from a Chrysler product? Walter P. must be thrilled with his namesake! Does Fiat have a paw in this design? Is quality forgotten, or is it the profit motive?

[@byondxs]

Another great video from AAR, thanks for the show today. It's to bad that son of a gun wouldn't brake lose but then again if it would have we wouldn't have had the opportunity to see that weird ass oil pump . I shared the video again on my FB page, ao if I can share I dare everyone else to share. We need to get more subscriptions for Randy & Tim!!! GO AAR!!!

[@Ramirez1301]

Another great video. I really like the direction that your channel is going. Keep doing these and the Copart walk arounds. This is quickly becoming my favorite channel. That said, replace the engine. The valves likely closed with water in it and the damage is probably far more extensive than worth trying to repair. But, would be fun to see the engine torn down once you get the replacement in.

[@andyacosta1985]

This was a good video man ur actually getting into the motor lol good job 👍

[@Redbulpro]

Big thums up bro!! Would love to see you fix this car. It looks really nice. Keep up the Awesome work brother🔥

[@q135980]

The engine and transmission usually are taken out as a assembly by lowering the whole front subframe, it's usually not possible to attempt to take either out on it's own without dropping the subframe since this is a FWD car. I would say put a low mileage used engine in it and ship it out. I'm sure you can get 5500 for it at least with a low mileage engine swapped in and a through detail. I appreciate your courage to go into these projects, it's great content!💯💯

[@KeiNovak]

This was a great one. Interesting to see what problems you have to deal with to get this working.

[@MrJoebiz24]

Great video despite the negative results. You've more than accommodated the haters with the excessive wrenching on this Dart. I was stressing with every ratchet turn with you. Stay positive. You'll "git 'er done".....lol.

[@pbattis1]

Attack that motor Randy. Great video as always.

[@ragin1921]

One ,thing may help,on the crank ,I used a monster pipe wrench,,,yes monster 72 inch ,wrap towel on it and use pipe wrench or pipe strap wrench. Doing good job,,,ty

[@dalejessop5466]

I believe this 2.4L engine was originally a Mitsubishi design. Hyundai used it in their cars and eventually partnered with Chrysler to increase volume. They dissolved the partnership when they went their different design directions. The base engine design is the same and is still being used today.

[@Carls_World]

Holy cow! That's nasty! Didn't expect that! Maybe it's an April fool's joke?!? Lol

[@sberryscake]

not to self... NEVER buy a dodge dart. great video! keep it up. and thank you for acknowledging that we prefer the work ON camera. it shows you are listening. as does your content. i have a similar cheater bar. i went to home depot and bought a 10ft conduit pipe. had them cut it in half, one in half again, and one in half again. so now i have a 5ft, 2.5 ft, and 2- 1.25ft or 15 inch pipes. i believe the diameter is 1 1/2inch (maybe 1 3/4, when in doubt go a bit bigger, but if too wide it will slip off your regular wrenches) and cost less than $10. i mostly use the 2.5ft one, but have used the 5ft on occasion. i suspect that if you buy a long enough cheater bar, you can either break that loose, or shear off the breaker bar. but somethings gotta give. ;-) other than my stubbys, these have fit over every wrench i have used. i would absolutely LOVE to see what happens if you were to put a 10ft cheater on there. :-D

[@yazchannelify]

It will be easier to drop the whole engine through the bottom just loosen the engine cratleand drop it no need for engine hoist

[@larndavies6954]

@@richardt3744 you lower it on to a decent toolbox or rolling bench and then just lift the car using the hoist, no muscles required. Standard way to remove most modern fwd engine and trans assemblies

[@JosephKirbyCarr]

Hey randy use a welding torch it will help allot I’ve worked on flood cars

[@eduardobaez1599]

Spray a ton of penetrating oil inside the cylinders overnight through the spark plug holes for a few days. Try moving it again back & forth a little at a time. It should free it up. I got my aunt's 04 lancer freed up and running two years ago and it still works.

[@ericopadua320]

[@thesaturdayguy]

It was a nice try it was facinating to see a flooded engine like this could be usefull to others. And dont forget that maybe this content awers greenhorn copart buyers to buy a flooded car! You always said that flooded cars are the worst. Maybe now those guys understand it! Great effort!

[@45AMT]

I'd just put a motor in it. It might actually be easier if the motor and trans did drop out the bottom since you have a lift. No engine hoist required, just lift up the car drop the motor out the bottom.

[@byondxs]

But before replacing the engine, lets tear the engine down to see what the problem actually was.

If the starter is leaking fluid, maybe you just need to add more starter fluid? Does it use the same kind as a charcoal grill?

[@edwest1537]

Randy , you're working hard . doing everything yourself . Not getting enough rest you're dead on your feet . Dude you need to take a fishing trip get some time alone away from it all . Some time alone with lady , just enough to recharge yourself . You're a good guy . None of this means anything if you're not a part of it .

Hey Randy which online manuals would you recommend for working on Hyundai's and Toyota's? The research I did and I came up with a website that recommended several online manuals. The list included: Chilton, Workshop Manuals, ifixit, Autozone, ALLDATAdiy, HaynesOnline, Mitchell1 & AutoMD. Which one do you recommend from this list or is there another automotive manual not mentioned on this list.

Randy & Tim good TRY !! I would take a guess ! Someone has did a start up with all that water & the engine has seized . I think the car has been submerged & have you ran a vehicle report ! Would be cool content to see what actually happened to it . My guess Texas hurricane car 🌀 Salute guys took it further then I would have 😎

[@n78966969696896]

I know this is late but.. the sxt, gt (I own), and two other models use the 2.4L multi air engines. Multi air means it only has one cam for exhaust and a hydraulic pump mechanism for the intake. That's why it's such a monster of an oil pump. Also.. electronic can bus hell..

[@MikeSmith-yb1oq]

i had a car that sat for a while..had some rust around rings..had to put some evapo rust in spark plug openings let it sit a day or two and it freed up...change oil after..

[@travisburch6970]

Wow we got mystery and drama tuned in for next week exciting action pack show

[@jonsmith1259]

Drain the trans fluid? Best to make sure it is not full of water as well?

[@catera21]

I'm not gonna lie this was pretty entertaining.

[@johncox1983]

It's called a balance shaft module. It houses the balance shafts and the oil pump in one unit. It dampens the vibrations inherent in 4cyl engines.

[@jasonhangaard7672]

Since your going to scrap the engine. How about trying maybe a brass punch through the spark plug holes tapping on the piston. Or take your compression tester and adapt a hose fitting on it and apply air to possible force the marvel mistery oil through the rings, and maybe tap on another piston at the same time. Just a couple ideas for ya Randy keep the videos coming.

[@edwest1537]

Dude , I hate being a mother hen . But I like you . And I have seen how people work so hard to make their dream come they neglect themselves . I like what put out it's all good .

[@sberryscake]

hey RANDY, what diameter is your cheater bar? at least a 2" to fit over that breaker bar handle?

[@onehondabredda3161]

Never give up so fast. If you don't see anything that causes the motor won't turn you need to check the motor head as well. If it still stuck well you can go ahead and start looking another engine and be sure its the same year and type also it has to be compatible with the ECU.

[@jeffhaselwood1962]

An old trick to unwise an engine is to pou coca cola into the cylinders until it eats the rust

[@roger4375]

Take that BFH and a drift punch and rap the rod cap bolts a few whacks. The jolt may free up the pistons

[@Jay7884717]

Should have put diesel fuel mixed with a little transmission fluid into each cylinder rather than the Marvel . Then let it sit for a week or two. Bet you could have gently worked it and got it to turn. Engine needs a full tear down now after messing with the bearing caps.

[@89hondalx]

Fairly common to have an upper and low oil pan which are the two halves you see. The big unit is most likely an oil pump and balance shaft assembly.

[@chadbrown1474]

As mentioned below, balance shaft module. Go get yourself a junkyard motor, not worth trying to save that one!
