I had a quick ? If anyone know I build a b20v from top to bottom all parts brand new and it’s going to be a fully build motor I got a chance to put oil on motor but haven’t crank it yet or got it starts been sittint for a few month , will it cause any issue by it just sitting or Waht Shoukd I do I bene so busy I haven’t had time to finish it motor had brand new bearing piston rods brand new crank and timing belt on and etc just need ecu and Injector . But I heard I can turn the crank pulley to turn the motor alittle but didn’t want to do that yet so please let me know if it’s safe to have it sitting or what can i do Thankx

 

If you have kept the engine bagged up, and you store it in a dry location... you should be fine. If you are concerned about some rust or damage to the bores, you can run a bore scope down into each hole and take a look... or rotate the crank pulley with a consistent pressure effort counterclockwise paying close attention to how smooth the engine rotates. You will need to remove the spark plugs to do this test so you don't build compression.

Now, creating the same thread in multiple sub-forums is poor forum behavior... so please go and delete any duplicates or ask a MOD to merge them.

 

Ok I did that a few weeks ago but I did it with spark plugs on I turn the crank at first it’s was little hard but after one turn it turn smooth I turn it same way was timing belt would turn is that rite and should I turn it more with spark plug off and how many times should I turn it

 

Pull the plugs out so there isn’t that build up of compression and then turn it over. Seems fine to me so far I would think.

 

After removing the spark plugs, rotating it five or six full turns counter-clockwise and it feels smooth... I say "Send It" !!!

 

Thankx man I should turn the crank goinf to the fire wall like the timing turn when it’s on or I need to turn it going to the front sorry I ask

 

Ummmm... Counter-Clockwise. From below the crank pulley bolt (under the car), that would be push toward the firewall. From above the crank pulley, you would pull toward the front bumper cover.

 

So would be timing belt would turning the other way from if the car was on rite like back ward so can gear woukd be turning towards backward to front of the car

 

Turn it in the direction the engine wants to turn. Top of timing belt moving towards the front of the car. Counter clockwise when looking at the pulleys.
