M104 e320 engine questions
Got my used engine off the pallet and looked at it. I guess its in ok condition. Shows some corrosion from being from a northern car for almost 20 years.
1. Some debris in intake ports. Thinking of just taking the shop vac and sucking that stuff out. I can see the valves but I assume that it won't hurt anything to shop vac the intake ports.
2. Looks like the rear crankshaft seal is indeed leaking on the used engine. Definitely going to renew it. Is there a mainstream solution to those star shaped bolt heads or do I need an oem tool?
