after completing front engine's cooling and exhaust systems, we hard-wired an external
405 fuel pump to start the front engine after several months of being out of use...



it started without problems, apart from expected noisy hydraulic lifters.

Are you sure it's not a 1.9 mi16 diesel?

No offence my engine sounds pretty the same

[cybernck]

as i said:

after several months of being out of use...

mi16 has hydraulic lifters and with the oil drained... they get very noisy!

and part of the noise is exhaust manifold related.

lifters have quieted down later.

[Banita]

They shouldn't be noisy after few seconds. In fact manifold made from stainless steel can make such a noise...

Dziwnie chodzi.Tak jakby nie palil na wszystkie gary.Cos jak moja kosiarka do trawy

[DJPreZes]

Oh my.. why does it sounds so bad??

[cybernck]

haha i love these complainers...

the engine had been standing for a few years then we took it apart and
it had been standing for a few more years again, then we assembled it
and after a few more months it started... so excuse it if it's running
a bit rough .

[DJPreZes]

I hope it will run better than it sounds ;] (The front one sounds a bit better :] )
