Is there any web sites with things too look for when refurbishing an engine, like pics of worn pistons/valves etc. Just I'll be starting mine soon and want everything mint before it goes back together. | |

theyre not that bad the rotaty engines really to re-build, people just assume its going to be a nightmare but i found it took me a fair bit more time that was all | |

Ok mate cool, just wondered if there were any specific areas that can need attention on the XE engine that I didn't know about. | |

I have done a 1.6 8v and a 1.6 16v before just replacing all gaskets seals, re-seating valves, new shells etc. Just wondered if there was anywhere that does a guide before do the 2ltr | |
