    flooding problems on 87 7mgte

    I was thinking if it thinks its cold, it could be dumping extra fuel in for a cold start condition. If the gauge is always reading cold, an open in the ECT sensor circuit or a bad ECT sensor could cause that. But it seems like that's not likely. What about your fuel pressure? -AM3

    flooding problems on 87 7mgte

    Its possible, if the injectors are leaking. I've seen it on a few Saturns and more recently my Dad's Ford. Try starting it while holding the throttle all the way open. If it starts up when you do that, I would do an injector balance test. -AM3

    Running on 4 cylinders?

    Do a compression test. If you have low/no compression on 5 and 6, you may have a BHG (mos likely). But in any case, you will be tearing the engine down at least partially if it fails a compresion test. -AM3

    Flywheel bolt install procedure

    Ok, so I have run into another minor dilemma. My service manual says to use Loctite on the flywheel bolts, but the TSRM says to lubricate them with motor oil. So what should I use? Oil, Loctite, something else, or nothing? -AM3

    flywheel bolts broken

    Seriously, get some ARP bolts, or at least a set of OEM's. You can get OEM's for like $12. And ditch the lightweight crank pulley and get a balancer. Resurface the flywheel and if its safe to use, reuse it, otherwise replace it. And lastly, get a clutch kit since you got it this far apart. -AM3

    Rusty Internals

    In this case, I would get the block hot tanked, just because of the fact that there could be rust in your oil passages. Make sure the block is completely stripped down, and replace the freeze plugs as they will possibly be damaged by the hot tank. -AM3
