so, ultimately this engine is destined for my wagon and i don't exactly have any money, well i do but it comes in ridiculously slow (school+job=no money)
engine has 214,000 KM on it and doesn't seem to of been taken very good care of, when i took it out of the car it ran good. the original owner said it smoked/burned oil or something, however it did not do anything in the little bit i drove it around (15min/half hour most) Engine in wagon works fine but thats not the point.
Ultimately my question is should i service this engine like it deserves and put it in or should i just get it back together drop it in and slowly build up a new engine while this one dies.
or maybe ive been reading these forums way to much.
here are a pic of the cams and the gaps, i think the cams are worn, but i don't know if they are bad or not.
