Caboobaroo Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 well I finally got my motor pulled, by myself with a come-along and the rafters in my garage. Took me about 3 hours to pull it but hey, I figure not too bad for this being my first EA82T pull I've done without help. So I got the motor out and it now currently sits on the floor in my garage. Some of you might remember me talking about an oil leak form the turbo area causing it to spew it all over my engine compartment. Well I found the leak. The oil line in the back of the head seems to have a hole in it. Its the only place I see any oil built up around. The reason I believe it was spweing is because the gasket between the turbo and the up pipe is shot. Also I got a major exhaust leak at the heads because the up pipe is loose, the gaskets are shot, or the studs are stripped out. Well its time to take a break and go get some food... mmmm Arbys.... I love get 50% off:D Then I get to see if my heads are still good when I pull them off. I'll have pics once I get the heads off:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
