4CFEDFDS Posted November 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Well guys i decided to take off the rocker arms to see if the lifters were pumped up and all of them were. So i was bleeding them and puting it all back together and suddenly i broke off one of the bolts that hold the cap down and boy am i not happy. Now i went to get my drill and the battery is dead so i could drill and use a extractor thingy. Think that could have been a major issue. I looked at the wrong torque spec glad i broke only one. But still mad i broke it. Thats what i get for rushing(its cold out). Edited November 16, 2008 by 4CFEDFDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edde Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 I'm a bit surprised a cam cap bolt broke. They head metal is so soft they usually strip out and need helicoils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4CFEDFDS Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Well bleed the lifters and it dont run much better. Its in the for sale section. Not so much giving up on it as i need the money for my Rx7's and i think the quest deserves a better owner(dont like me). I just dont have the time to fool with it anymore and need the space. I did the best i could and tried to fix the mess the previous owner made, fixed the engine(major issue), but cant get it to run right. $800 and it's yours i have extras too. Thanks guys for all of you help. Edited November 27, 2008 by 4CFEDFDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
