resealing an ej22. what to replace before install


Recommended Posts

Just found a 2.2 to go in my old 90 legacy.

Motor is sitting on the floor.

I am thinking cam seals, main seal or seals (front and rear?) timing belt and how about the plate on the rear of the motor? Is this a gasket or just a sealant in a tube? If so, what is recommended type?

Water pump?

Put Keensert or such in exhaust stud holes?

Anything else?

 

tnx

mad at the oil pump (reseal or replace)? Since the engine is out of the car i would do the spark plugs too. Do both main seals. Also replace the tensioner. do cam seals, water pump, the stupid plate if its plastic.

Now I see a guy asked just about the same question a few post below this one. S'pose I should read a bit before I ask questions.

By the way, the motor to go in has supposedly about 100k miles and is from a 1993.

Motor is from an automatic, going into 5 speed manual 2 wd with about 150k miles. Intake and electronics from old motor will be swapped to replacement unit.

Hope I didn't forget too much this time.

tnx
