    Oil pressure paranoia...

    Rod bearings are only $25, last time i checked. I can't imagine mains would cost more than $60. I really need to get the Mk2 Golf running again, and the bumper on the Mk3 Golf fitted...

    Oil pressure paranoia...

    Pretty much, yep. I cant afford the machine work to have a new set of pistons put in, and the crank *should* be in good enough condition that i can get away with stock bearings. What i'd like to do, is get Toyota bearings, but that means taking the subframe off and the sump BEFORE ordering the...

    Oil pressure paranoia...

    Well, just been confirmed - not only has the HG gone *poof*, but the bottom end has worn almost to spun bearing territory! Hurrah! ....NOT. Anyway, looks like if i drop the subframe, i can drop the sump, and replace the rod bearings without removing the engine from the car, and without having...
