alright so yesterday i did the timing they seems to be wrong. i pulled front apart aligned it put it all back together including water pump pulley, motor mount everything else so i dont forget anything important too :/
before i crank it up and guess what i forgot? i left the 13/16 ratchet on the crank bolt and cranked it up luckily only the bolt was stripped lol got another bolt from another bp thank god

got the radiator in and hooked up, the radiator mount was a bittch becuause i used screws the 2 drill's dead had to use air ratchet too slow lol anyway still need to put the gas pedal back in, bleed the brakes and clutch and hopefully the battery's still good!

heres a question how do i bleed the clutch? just simply use 8mm wrench on slave or so? i m going to bleed the brakes and clutch tomorrow and make a to do list before a good test drive

[CaymenEGT91]

BP's will still run 4-5 teeth off timing, not well but it will start and idle so i dont think you have a timing issue

[bomdoutscort]

you need someone in the car pumping the clutch and someone to release the pressure. Have the screw closed and pump on the clutch till you feel pressure and tell them to hold it to the floor. You release the pressure out of the bleed screw. If there it air in the line the it will come out of the bleed screw. You'll have to do this a lot if there is a lot of air in the system. Make sure you keep your brake fluid res full or you'll get more air in the system if you run out of fluid in the res.

caymen, i had trouble goin past 4k on highway drives fine in town had no problem shifting at 6k til 3rd maybe 4th cant remember i m pretty sure theres bunch more problems lol leaking gasket from sitting to long i ****ed with timing trying to advance it 12 or so ****ed with maf and tps eveything needs to b e set again and tried to do wire tuck too early for me lol but they are back to where it was whew thank god it still runs

[bp_turbo'd]

bump

[bp_turbo'd]

anyone?

[Mazda_Powered]

I don't understand what you're asking...what to check after you've bled the clutch/brakes? make sure it doesn't leak and the pedals firm?

[bp_turbo'd]

no i mean checklist after swap things to check before go on road trip plus after swap theres no brakes and clutch water or oil in it id like to check everything to make sure cause i did atx to mtx swap too i gotta pull the engines out and regasket it

so far i need to fill fluids
gasket
5 qt of oil
gear oil
antifreeze
brake fluid
check suspension/ brakes
i need more things to do

[FE3-323]

if its not leaking badly, just let it be & keep a watch on it until you have time to devote & replace gaskets.

key thing to check is all of your bolts are tight & fluid levels are okay

[EGTeric93]

and i believe the bp is like 4.2 quarts of oil
