In this video I fit all the hoses and most of the wires on the freshly rebuild engine. Then I fill the coolant and bleed the system. Lastly oil is added and then its time to check for oil pressure! scary stuff!

I worked on my GT Turbo back in 1994, and i still get sweaty arm pits when i think about the cramped space in the engine bay. Even back then it was a fight to get it to run reliably. Costed me al lot of money, but brought even more joy!! Hope you also will enjoy it soon. 👍

Thanks! I hope so too! Yea its pretty cramped in there, especially compared to other cars from that era...

Great update happy 4 you the anti perc fan was prone to setting on fire 🔥 so most people remove them an who doesn't want more boost in the gt turbo thats why no over boost sensor on the intercooler pipe and yes aei (ecu) crank sensor and fuel pump all work together remove one and no start first place to start looking when fail to start or cut out

Well maybe ill ditch those systems then... I like the perc fan... not the fire part tho... maybe I can make a fuse for it!

I can send you pictuters of my engine bay if needed as I just build in the engine. Also without any idea how it would fit but with pictures from internet/workshop manuels it is working fine now. Drove 130Km last week with it and loved it! Like your projekt and video's - keep on going!!!

After a new build, I used cheap oil,run the engine up to temp so the fan cycles once. I then let it totally cool, re torque headbolts and reset valve clearance. Then I used to drive them with little or no boost, and take them all the way up the rev range,but not under load so the engine does not labour.

That sound as a good way to do it... By no boost, did you wind the wastegate out?

Get rid of the perc fan. Mine seized and caught fire like many others. Luckily I went back to the car and saw the smoke before it was too late. I am pretty sure it is best to use the Renault coolant as well rather than a generic one. You can leave the overboost sensor disconnected . Can’t wait to hear it running 🤗
@SeasideGarage4 жыл бұрын
Yes maybe i should.... But I like it... its a quirky detail.. maybe ill make a fuse for it.. :) The coolant should live up to renault (and aluminum head) standard.. :) Thanks!

There was an official Renault recall to add a small bit of loom that included a 10a fuse to prevent that from happening 😉

@@SeasideGarage if you swap the wires in the crank position sensor plug, you will also advance the timing by a few degrees, if your not running huge boost might make it feel a bit more lively. If you do want to run more boost, dont enlarge the main jet, increase the 1st and 2and stage (mainly 2and stage) boost enrichment jets.

The perculation hose looks to run to atmosphere to equalise pressure so the car doesnt flood with petrol when switched off.
@SeasideGarage4 жыл бұрын
It seems to go into the carb to cool internally i think... but not sure.
@reTool4624 жыл бұрын
The anti perc fits into the boost hose, and blows inside the carb. Just blank it off on the outlet of the perc fan as the solenoid can leak and you loose boost.
@SeasideGarage4 жыл бұрын
Yea, i think ill do that.... I would like to keep the perc fan tho... might end up fusing it to avoid fire...

@@SeasideGarage 10a fuse I think was the official Renault recall. Also hard go see in the video, but the fuel feed from the regulator should go into the perc fan elbow, enters at the bottom where the round tube like section points down, and the out where it directs air at the carb.
