X-Day… — Toyota Carina, 1.5 liter, 1982

Yesterday (December 25) that decisive moment came ... The
power unit was removed and it became clear where We were sailing next ...))))

In general, with what We went into battle ...
- Jack - 1 piece;
- racks - props - 2 pcs.;
- a set of spanners 6-22mm;
-ratchet, heads 10-19mm, extension ...
-Kick what desire — infinity kilogram;
- well, boards, bricks - all this was found on the farm, so to speak ...

The workday began already with the outboard, wiring, carburetor with its bunch of hoses removed ... All this was filmed days earlier ... The cardan was first removed (very lively, crosses without backlash). In the trail, the rear support of the automatic transmission, the speedometer cable, the automatic transmission dipstick, the starter and all the bolts on the bell ... Then he threw off the cylinder head and undertook to land the automatic transmission, and then, for no reason, for no reason, a half dojik started - half a shower. Having hidden the tool, he took a rag and began to wash Karina Alexandrovna ...))))) And then I was unlucky, the rain ended ...
10 minutes and the automatic transmission was on the ground. I twisted the engine mounts, it remains just to remove it from the engine compartment (I didn’t master it myself) ...
In this, the cylinder head with the insides in the scrap! There are embossed stripes on the camshaft under 2,3,4 yokes, the 2nd yoke burst. The combustion chambers and pistons are covered with a thick, thick layer on top, but not chocolate. The cylinder walls are polished to a mirror, the 4th cylinder, as always, is worn out.
I haven’t opened the block yet, but I don’t hope to see anything good there, since the previous owner said that something started to knock and only then the engine stalled ... These were connecting rods, at least one ...)))) There is no oil on the dipstick, a drop only at the tip …)))
In the automatic transmission, ATP (in other words, oil) is in the level. All zasrat ... Torque converter whole, checked.
Well, basically everything. The verdict is clear to me, we are raising money for a “new” motor and on the road… We really want 3S-GE Beans, but given the distribution of the budget for Karina Alexandrovna, we will look for — to collect 4A-GE…)))
