Complete 4.0 Motor for grabs
#3
It has been sold but I have another one I just pulled a few days ago. I have not had a chance to go through it yet.
It has a new timing chain, new water pump, oil pump and I think it may have a new timing cover. It may not be. The guy did not know to pack the oil pump with petroleum jelly and started the motor instead of removing fuel pump fuse and cranking to prime. I do not know that this will actually kill a brand new oil pump but always a chance.
Chief complaint was low oil pressure after running 20 minutes on the road. Light tap upper end that goes away after a minute and I suspect a lifter is not pumping back up after compressed due to oil starvation or being worn. I see no indication of rolled bearings without pulling the oil pan. The dip stick does not show flakes of bearing material
No indication of rear main seal leakage and valley pan appears to have good seal
Oil Blow stain from possible stif rocker box gaskets, bad head gasket or head bolt backed out. I blew it with air nozzle to see directional flow of the oil stain.
just a side shot
After fitting a new oil pump the low oil pressure persists after 20 min of driving so I suspect worst case main thrust bearing or best case a pressure relief valve. The man said it runs great otherwise
I don't know how much freight shipping is on a motor. I will ship if you are interested in this one. I can provide pics of lower end or at least video of oil pan being removed once fitted in my stand
