So you guys may remember when my crank pulley cracked a while ago, here is a refresher https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...ghlight=gompka I guess it did more damage than I thought, I'm not using this engine anyway though. The camshaft bearings are all perfect though, just the balance shaft, rod, and crank bearings got totally shot. I found some metal on the rear oil screen, i threw away my oil filter so wasn't able to saw it in half and take a look. I'm guessing this happened when shavings of metal from the camshaft got into the oil.

Btw if anyone is wondering, the motorola zine zn5 is a pretty shytty phone, except for the camera. Its a 5mp with real flash, i think 90% of all my pics on here I took with the phone, comes in handy because I forget to take the digi-cam to the garage 99% of the time

 

damn....

 

yep.....their shot....lol

 

Just a bit lol, the cylinder walls were clean, head is fine, guess it was just those crank shavings from when the pulley crapped out.

 

iv seen stock cast pulleys crack before but never seen quit that much damage but i dont doubt they can do that.

 

btw since when did the head have cam bearings?...lol

 

That to me looks like a lack of oil presure!

 

dunno, always had oil, i keep a quart in my car at all times, but maybe when the crank seal broke there was oil loss.

 

Uhmm.. the 2az always had them..

 

Reason i say that is, there all bad! Since nothing inernally broke to cause this much trash to get in the bearings!.. A lack of oil looks like it would be the cause.. Metal rubbing metal with no oil.. should look like that

 

Moral of the story.... Always use lube??

 

forgot about the ones on the end...lol..they just dont have them all the way...

been a while since i tore apart a 2az

 

JUst FYI . I've got 2 sets of Bearings for sale if you need em! lmk!
