The theme E30. To life returned!

It is time to finish this, ad nauseam, epic. I understand you, the theme of the E30 I already got. So much so that I'm not happy with the Stroker and don't want to ride it even on Sunday. Overdose :)

The post "back to life" over the fact that E30 with the Stroker went bright, but after 4000 smoked like a chimney. However, I ran a little ahead — impressive dynamics we received. Of course, the question was asked to the seller of the motor: "Vova, what's the matter?!". To which he calmly replied: "the Motor three years standing. Apparently the rings are a little lay down. Ride — things will get better". OK, not a question, begin to skate. A couple of days in Kalinovka was scheduled drag with telemetry. And I decided to give the rings will :)

Before that, drove 200 km Arrived in Kalinovka, left with three DmitryTeilen:

Then Mercedes W210 —

Great start — reducer unit with taxis. But at the top the motor is OK, if someone periodically shuts off the fuel supply. I've decided that in the mix and started experimenting with a flow meter. Nothing came of it. Three refused to accelerate well at high speed. My best result at 402 m in the day — to 16.9 sec. Compared to 15,5 sec. which showed my ex-325 — the result is sad. But I'm not upset. Decided that on Monday the arrival of one of the detector, will adjust and everything will be great. By the way, pay attention — even strangled and fuming 325 E30 is able to go to the level of some fresh diesel X3 :)

Tseo regulated — did not help. Checked fuel pressure — the fuel pump dying. It turned out that he is also from the VAZ 2110. Going to the store, buy exactly what you want for the 325 and the result was not long in coming — the top appeared. And what! But the gray cloud behind us has not disappeared. Though drove over 500 km Reported this to the seller of the motor. Says: "Try raskosov" :) We are used to. Vince this time do not buy. We go to the market, take the high purity kerosene for 25 UAH per liter. Full fill the cylinders, leave for a day. Compression went up, but the smoke is not gone :) So, advice — do not waste money on expensive chemicals, domestic kerosene works better than. Because the basis of all these window and chagirov lies the kerosene for a penny :)

The next version may be oil ring derated М20В27 not cope with high revs? Don't believe it. At 5000, they are precisely calculated, and the motor smokes after 4000. A new question to the seller of the motor: "Vova, and you're valve seals changed?". Answer: "No, they're fine. I checked them to the touch — not oak". Well what can I say? Really hard before installing the motor to buy a set of seals and to change. They even Ransu cost a penny. In General, imported E30 to replace the valve stem caps. Fortunately, Dylan is able to change them without removing the cylinder head. The next day, pick up the car, go on the road and the gas to the floor. Smoke significantly less, but still smokes! You can imagine my condition. Back to Vova: "take Off your head!".

When removed, everything became clear — the unit has a decent production! Where is the promised 160000 km mileage? Here also believe after that to close friends. But Dylan we "reassured": "Guys, I'm confused. I have two E28 was. Here on 528 and was 160000 km, and this is the unit with 525е..." We wanted to strangle Vova place :) And probably would have done if I had not found a way out. In the yard Vova stood recently purchased 525е. Machine without a number. Made on the basis of the excellent German donor, a salon, a perfect bottom, thresholds, and almost the entire body in their native paint. On the odometer 247000 km, Judging by the preservation of interiors, like the truth. Agree to pick up her unit. Drove both cars to the van in the garage. Bought pads and started dismantling. The had their work cut out — remove the two motor, swap them and put the MBC in place. A few photos of the process, which I did on memory:

Started in the afternoon, and at four o'clock in the morning all was ready. Troika got a great block 2,7 — generation zero. Here is not the words of Vova — see for yourself.

And the five left with the unit worse. But she's not above 4500 spinning her go.

And here, contrary to the skeptics, good unit derated М20В27 at speeds in excess of 5000 does not smoke. By the way, misleading a caveat. At first, fuming, version the unit was Piscataway with other pistons, 1983. But the one that stands today — kutovyi the end of 1986, V. May, and this factor has affected, I do not know — need to check the same whether the ring.

So buying E30 for 2500-3500 get ready for big expenses. As a rule, fully repainted, povarka, repair, or replacement motor, new pump, viscous coupling, radiator, repair the stove, bringing order to the suspension, interior, electrics and electronics. This time, the money and spent nerves, which do not nourish. Surprises will be plenty! In addition to the elegant technical solutions like the inclusion of reverse lights with a separate button, there are more serious. For example, when we disassembled the cylinder head, to-Rui sentenced the crack mechanic, then uttered a curse. It turned out that the camshaft on the head М20В25 resourceful vuyko of the objects was replaced by a shaft from М20В27! In addition, in the fourth the affected cylinder and standing valve from М20В27, which is smaller in diameter than М20В25. And the piston from М20В27. So imagine the situation — you bought a good, at first glance, 325. It has a decent compression, it is not heated and does not smoke. That is need in repairing of the motor at all. You even found out that she has the injectors and ECU from the motor weaker. Glad your resourcefulness, changed to the correct details, adjusted the meter, bought new plugs, lambda, leads, and trio still plays in the acceleration of, say, your buddy's 525 E34. You're in shock! How so? Because digree wrote that the German tests 325 were dispersed in 7.7 to 100 and did the quarter for 15.5! Where is the promised dynamics? Why am I making machine with passport 8,6?! Continue to travel, to wonder, to puzzle, to look for reasons to dig on the forums, and not to suspect that the camshaft and valve from your engine capacity of 125 forces, and never you do not catch up with his friend...

But we, Thank God, it passed. Behind the year's work and spent a lot of foreign exchange funds. In the end, we fed thirty of the throat. As I wrote in the beginning of the story, neither I nor my friend Ivan to ride on the E30 I don't. Enough. And Ivan also considers that the family needs her unfit. With his height of 195 cm, the back to put a child seat impossible, and his two small children. After the sale of the three he will search the car bigger. Е32 wants a BMW or a Peugeot 605. But first you need to sell the E30:

any car which is bought regardless of price (well, maybe quite those who are in the highest price category are 2 times more expensive than the average car ) is in full parsing

>The unit has a decent output.
What religion is not allowed before installation to fathom backlashes in locks of rings, barrel wear, as the mirror and noticed, the tightness of the valves, condition of rails and oil caps.

Master done, change the valve seals without removing the cylinder head.
We have without removing cylinder head no one, I'm afraid rasshirenniy the valve to the pot to drop.

What would the valve fell into the pot, it is necessary to turn the crankshaft and set the piston at TDC. Then valve will have nowhere to fall.

As we ate - and eats.

in the end, it was decided not to fuck his head, and just pick up and dismantle of mill, but to see what's going on. disassembled, everything was in such a wild shit that the rings had to pick out of the pistons with a screwdriver, ie mechanically remove the tar Hells Nagar(SUPROTEC, yeah) who was there)) all washed, collected, oddly enough, but everything was greasy tolerances, including piston and ring. and all oil flow is ZERO. any style of riding - level 5 tkm go anywhere at all.

again, SUPROTEC and other stuff I do not care

Speaking of kerosene, highest test.
Kerosene nifiga does not help.
If you want a real hard decarbonize, that is such muck, as Mitsubishi Shuma, everything is there, it cleans very well and hon because it is caustic soda so she can clean up very serious high temperature carbon on the valves, and oil coat on the intake, if flows through the manifold. But spoils the rubber, so just the intake it was not worth it.

And to decarbonize soft and long well podhodyat coal solvent and xylene. They are very well dissolve all that much better than kerosene. I'd say in better times. Unfortunately, they are much more toxic, so you need to work carefully.
