Bank 1 this evening
The gauze has split on this one and the middle has gone through the tensioner hence the startup rattle
Cam cover cleaned and new gasket installed
Sealant in the corners
Back on, two new tensioners installed
Thats all the internal work done on the engine
The replacement manifold is almost ready for paint. Serendipitously, this is from my grey S8's original engine so I know there's only 113K miles on it.
I know this one is from my engine because the previous owner had a can of orange paint, and for some reason painted random bits of hardware and engine parts with it
This includes the crank pulley, fan pully, and inexplicably, these two nuts. I'll clean this off before it goes back together.
Since the injector rail is off for paint I will replace all the injector filters and seals
