CAR IS RUNNING!

Post by SierraFox »

Well after all the waiting on new parts its running. However I found a destroyed hydraulic motor mount and a very destroyed lower torque mount.

They will have to do for now as my budget for fixing the car is at $0.

I got a AEM UEGO for the car so I can monitor A/F when the boost is put on later. Figured I would get a future investment out of the way. Really wasnt part of the budget, thanks to eBay for selling some parts off a spare motor I had to help fund the rebuild.

Congrats on getting her up and running again. I have seen epoxy utilized to repair/strengthen motor mounts before.... don't know if this could be a option for you.

I have heard of this. I have also dont the liquid polyurthane filling before. Took like 3 days for it to cure though.

How fast does the epoxy cure?

Epoxy is usually 24 to 48 hours.
