Hi ya guys hope all is well on here?
I have started stripping down my spare D24Tic that is forming the basis of the engine for my VW LT. Just checking have any of you got some D24 specific tips/signs etc for checking the bottom end once I have the head off my check was going to be as follows whichI see as the basics needed.
1) Carry out compression test (Engine is out but I am sure this can be done)
2) Remove cylinder head check condition of the head face and combustion chambers all being weel send of for a skim and possibly a port and polish
3) Check the bores for scoring and condition of piston crowns
4) Ensure bottom end spins freely + check for excessive end float???
Is there any thing else I can do or need to do before refitting the head etc with out stripping the sump and crank?
Cheers guys
Si
