Sup friends I just copped a b18a1 from some dude on Craigslists, and today I decided to clean the motor up a bit cuz it was all covered in grease/oil(dirty as hell). So after removing parts I don't need and cleaning the hell out of it then I decided to remove the coolant plug thingy that's located in front of the block. Once it was remove I saw something inside that hole??? Tell u the truth, it looks like dirt, ALOT OF DIRT! So what am I working with here. Am I right? Is it dirt or rusted stuff like coolant and stuff?? I need a motor that runs so I can slap it in and use it for school (UTI ).
So am I f***?? Or there's a way out nd I'm good??, BTW I'm using a different head not vtec just plain ol Ls. So please let me know because I'm planning to slap it in this weekend but don't want to do all the work just to find out it won't start. So please any advice would be greatly appreciated.......
Another thing how would the engine run if 1 cam cap bolt is missing? The intake side and the #3 cap. Just 1 bolt but I have all the other cam cap bolts...
Thank u in advance
