He obviously did not watch your oil pan video! These engines aren't cheap to overhaul, can't believe someone goes to the expense then does that.

I think that you're right. We just need to learn from others mistakes, instead of making them again to 'test if it works for me' Some good lessons here......

I think all of us have learned by a mistake or two, I know I have.

Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.

Needed a couple more tubes of RTV and he would be good to go. I do find it strange that if he took the engine apart and found no RTV why he thought it was good to put it together with a gallon of the stuff. Even if he was steered in the wrong direction the engine worked for 50 years as is.

Someone needed to ask him, "did it look that way when it came from the factory?" Obviously this guy got his advice from some real experts.

Don,
Thanks for posting things like this. A lot of us work on our own stuff and having a expert like you point out what not to do is almost as good as what needs to be done right. Thanks for taking the time to put these pictures up. I wondered what that burnt mark was on the soft plug. So that's from rubbing on the end of the cam? Just some sloppy work with the silicone all over the block to pan gasket area. Regards, Chris |

A lot of people think they can read something and that what ever they do is going to work. Some of this stuff that comes in to My Shop sometimes is unreal . |

I have not pulled the cam to look at it yet but the one shot is the rear cam plug and it has had the paint burnt off it, so it might be just drove in to hard but it's burnt the paint and that's wrong. I know what site posted the use of silicone on sleeve installing (the clown said to use lots of it on and around the sleeves)and at the time I read this it was hard not to start posting on there just to stop this crap from being spread. the owner used Ultra Gray Silicone around the sleeves and in the O-ring grooves without using the O-rings. I'm not putting this on the owner, he was just doing what was posted to do and that's BAD INFO. The coolant was running down the sleeves after all the crap around the sleeves because the block was broken and had a bolt holding in place. The oil pump screen is covered with silicone.
All I can say is sad! |

I am with you Don, hate to see it. Obviously the guy spent a lot of time cleaning and spent money on new parts then messed the whole deal up.
Many years ago a 350 HP 396 Chevy engine came into my shop that was in identical shape except the main and rod caps were all blue/ Most everything the guy spent $$ had to be replaced after 10 lbs of silicone and Teflon tape bits plugged up the oil screen on the maiden voyage. |

I've never done a wet sleeved engine, yet, but I have overhauled more than a few gasoline engines; both small and automotive. New gaskets peeking out look okay, globs of silicone oozing unevenly from various places ruin the pride of a job well done. Robert |

Here's a Wd45 gas engine that the owner tried to rebuild after reading on a diff tractor site just what to do, can you tell some of the things he might have done wrong. He is a nice guy just got some bad INFO and that's going to cost him more money. I hate to see this crap.
