help with new engine please

[91accorddxbuds]

ok so i bought a new f22a1 for only 240.00

the guy said it had 94K on it, but its hard to tell isnt it?


it just came with the black head, and ITB, and all thos elittle things, nothing else .


my questions are.



will i have to time the distributor, from the old eninge, onto the new one?


the header blots came out( bottom studs) and were leaking oil.... its that right?

thanks

It would be wise to check the timing again on the new engine so you will know its fine by your standards. The exaust manifold studs shouldnt come out, but if they do, they shouldnt have oil on them. that may be a problem.

[drummersteve7]

of course you will have to time the distributor.
If you want it to run right.

as far as the bottom studs?
just put some new studs in there.

any pics?

[91accorddxbuds]

ok crap... is timeing it very hard? any tips?

and i promise ill get pics on here of it tomroow ok

aw so well am i screwd, now that i have to use all my parts from the old engine?

[Juicy_J]

You can get a timing light. thats the easiest way.

[evil_demon_01]

While the engine is out you should also do the cambelt and seals.
Yes the ignition timing will have to be set once the engine has been put back in.

I have no idea what you are trying to say, but I assume you mean swap over the parts that diddn't come with the new one?

[Juicy_J]

i was a little clueless about that too

[91accorddxbuds]

what i meant is since the new engine did not come with a distributor, it is going to be a harder swap for me. and as far as all the seals, the h.Gasket seems new, and the waterpump, and all that seem sorty of new also, so idk if i am going to replace, i still might. but i need to find out how to time this thing.

[91accorddxbuds]

also i want to put in a new oil pan gasket, before i start installing things, any tips n that, what do those bolts torque too??

[Juicy_J]

There's a sticky that has all the torque specs

if i were you and was not sure if the parts are new or had been replaced i would replace them with the engine out it is alot more easy to chage stuff like timing belt,waterpump,seals and things like that with it out

[91accorddxbuds]

yah i no it is a lot easier, and thast why i am doing it problally.



so as far as the swap, the hard things are going to be....



timeing.(installing used distributor, and timeing it.)

what else should i look out for ?
