all right guys it's time to start the finishing project on this motor we're going to put on
the timing components today get the cam shaft seals installed and hopefully get to where we
can start doing the valve lashing on this Subaru j25 let's get to it all right guys
kind of how my parts washers work we got a cardboard box which I've set up cost me
about a dollar and fifty cents at Walmart built it and then cut out this hole it's
sitting on top of another cover box with a drip collecting cardboard box there and
we're just using a great cleaner and some brushes to get these parts nice and clean
alright we've got the engine upside down it's time to put our oil plate baffle in well oiled
pan baffle majid sets right on in there like that and the oil pickup tube and that just
sets right in there like that and I know we have replaced the o-ring like we're supposed
to more like that just like that now the holes line up now if you're like me and you counted
all your screws that you specifically put into a plastic baggie that says the inside oil pan
and you find that you have six with a Philips head and a hex and a washer or anti-rotation
washer on there and then you have four that don't have any washers and no Phillips head
you might be wondering why you have a total of ten you only have six holes on this thing and
then two holes on this okay now as I was saying before the badly rudely ran out on
this foe Pro we've got the oil pickup tube in the oil pan baffle inside and we have a
quandary and that is that there are six of these which makes sense because there are six holes
for this and then we have four of these which means we've got two for that but where do the
other two go I don't know we'll find out later though I'm sure alright just bolts here we go
okay just as a side note here there are spaces where the bolts can drop down into the engine
and we don't want that because then we have to rotate it and do all that crazy stuff don't do
what Johnny don't it okay looks like we've averted a catastrophe here okay so don't do
that don't drop the bolt down inside all right let's get that lined up real nice
before I start trying it droppin stuff down in the engine it's a little bit of it a little bit
of an interference there which is probably why they also have the Philips head that's a lot at
least we've got this little guy right in here and there's a little bit of a clearance issue
so we're just going to tighten them up with a Philips head all right push the bolt till
it rounds it off again you know to the right torque there we go we have our oil pan baffle
and our will pick up - now they just leave two bolts that we don't know where they go here we
are at the back of the motor and we're going to install this solenoid at the nut bolts my brand
new gasket a VCS solenoid and we just match it up now one thing that may confuse you is that we're
looking at the back of the motor here there's where your clutch and pressure plate flywheel is
going to be at this is the right hand side of the engine generally when you talk about the engine's
left and right hand side you talk about it from a perspective up you're actually looking at the
engine from the front well this goes by driver side passenger side the right hand side is the
passenger side so you'll notice your parts for your right hand side are going to have an R on
them in some cases and you might be inclined to go to the front of the engine and be looking at
your right hand side and I would be incorrect so just save you guys that confusion right hand side
means passenger side and in general that's what it means anytime you're looking at our car got
the right hand side hand shaft seal we're going to go ahead and get a little bit of Lube on it
get that on the inside of that seal there make sure we maintain cleanliness on the camshaft
itself and the oil seal on the inside now there is a little bit of gasket maker on the inside
of this here so I'm just going to make sure I get that off there before we go and think
it's sealed and it's not I don't want any oil leaks come from there of course the block is
aluminum and the screwdriver is probably Chinese ium steel but it'll still damage
it so I'm just very lightly going on it with this edge all right and in the seal goes all
right and I'm just going to tap this same little by little I'm using a PVC pipe just
to be careful not to sting the seal up too bad yeah there's a little bit of marking on it but
it looks like it's sitting about flush right now I'm just going to give it a couple more love taps
I'll say that's in same thing on the side make sure the ultra gray is removed I've
got a little bit better of an idea of how much force it actually takes
to scratch the Loon and I'm with this feel so kind of go at this a little bit faster
you got a good little gob back there all clean okay alright get a little bit of oil
goop in there woosh it around on the outside edge of it and on curious how
far I can get this in push my fingers not beaten down at the PVC and that's about it
how's it metal I'm just going to be extra gentle take it past these two what are using two four
it feels as all for I will just give it a little bit of a scrub down a
little bit of gunk there that's good enough for the girls that go out with
line up our first bolt hole we're going to go with this top one right there go
so so I'm just going to do this very gingerly and just probably too much
pressure if I start cranking on it so what I'm going to do that and strip out block there would
be no repairing it now would be a very sad boy I'm just going in a start pattern here plugging
these guys down just became a lot of pressure on each one nobody doesn't a VCS solenoid locking on
you got our oil temperature sensor comes with a little popper washer right there so we check the
torque value and what we find is that is 13.3 foot-pounds so we're just going to do this nice
and gingerly and we're not going to give it a good rinse in because I don't want to break
this thing off alright and that's got to be that good I can tell you oil pressure cinder now there
are two threaded holes here which looked very similar and this will thread into both if I'm
not mistaken maybe they'll cross thread it into one of them but it goes in this furthest over to
the right hand side and it gets torqued down to Oh Shi 12.5 foot-pounds now you can see that this
has already started getting hard I can't even do it hand tight to it with hand pressure and so in
comes expandable wrench breaking something we're going to just get a nice and snug
see those 12 foot pounds but I feel like I'm easily putting more pressure on as
an AK got a net perfect it's not cross threading it doesn't say use
oil on it so we're just going to keep going nice and steady
whoo that's a bad sound well the aluminum is stripped out it's testicle and I'll return
anyway so we're going to pretend that's just alright so at this point I've already gone
ahead and installed the oil control solenoid for the AV LS a VCS active valve width or control
system and it was just simply putting these two approximately seven foot pounds and bolting this
unit down with a new gasket and then now I'm just going head into installing the a BLS oil
pressure cinder now we've tightened down this oil pressure cinder and tightened down the crankshaft
position sensor you can see this our front left head's ABS solenoid and oil pressure cinder is in
and the right side ABS solenoids pressure Center and temperature sender are Anna here's a little
front piece thingy that you bolts up to the front of the engine I'll show where it goes
in a minute but you'll notice that it's got this black rim and it's got a little sticky
gasket here little decal style of gasket I just peeled the white tape off of it and we're just
going to stick it on there like so perhaps I should have taken that black stuff off of
the mount here but it was on that pretty good so that being the case I didn't think it was
going to hurt anything and we're just following up now doing this through the camera and it's
pretty easy if you've ever put stickers on a action figure or something it's not like that
Millennium Falcon Star Wars Star Wars toys wherever have you Power Wheels kitchen set
all that jazz and this fits real close proximity to other components so I think they just have
this on there it's kind of like a vibration dampening I don't know how much this thing
actually moves around there's that the other one was all oil soaked and nasty and since this piece
comes with gasket kit go ahead and scrub this piece off and throw that on there it's nice
and pretty we're going to do the same thing to this and just put that right nut spot in it like
this here start it and push it on down in there and it's a little bit oversized so you'll see
a little bit hang off there well right at that put it on all right here we have the tensioner
bracket that is the semi belt tensioner be pushing this timing belt down towards the water pump here
and we've got two long screws let's go one two and one short screw which goes right in there
all right there's a tensioner bracket we're going to go ahead and put the torque wrench
on it now I've already got it set to a very very precise 20 foot pounds there's a click
and click click click and now we're going to go ahead and put the backside timing cover on
it goes on just like this slides in here and back little hooks kind of hooks underneath
that tensioner bracket we just installed and it just screws in we've got three screws here
this one was giving me a little bit of trouble want to cross thread back a little bit of thread
pulled out on it if it breaks going to break on camera for everybody to see I'm looking
at it from the backside it's not even close to being in that starting to get snug slides snide
bit handy cover hold water pump do I need it yeah junk it we're putting those doodad back
on it goes right here and so without further ado you poop it's like looking up the torque
spec to that one let's make sure to go over to work this now it's got to be good as you
can see I've got this water pipe con and you will just fit not a block right now there's
two bolts here and there and I don't know where they're at right now but Deltona wait I'll go
ahead and put the this water pipe on you see we have four bolt holes and we're going to go
ahead and just gingerly setting its part in it up drunk bolting the way the o-rings are is they're
slightly oversized for the holes I did buy a Subaru genuine parts but it looks like that's
just the way they're made so once you tighten this down looks like they crushed down make me
feel so we don't want to have to do that give me more times after this you know any water leaks
and as with everything steel bolts going into an aluminum block we're pretty much
not going to put a whole lot of torque on these things and then more or less clear
