about to take apart this motor they said that the "wrist pin" are loose and need to be replaced, please help

 

do you want us to come to your place and do this for you? i'm not sure of the question..

 

no, not really just in a predicament, wanted to see if anyone had insight

 

What's a rispin?

 

You're going to need to learn to speak English somewhat if you even want a sliver of help.



Rispin - There is not a single part on any car ever manufactured called this.



You know what a huge pet peeve of mine is? People come here asking for help, for their problems - and out of the kindness of our hearts we extend a helping hand.

Yet, 90% of the people asking for help put substantially less time into their own problem in asking for help, then we do giving it.



OP, you want help? Put a little more effort into it, otherwise I'm going to sit here at work all day making fun of you, simply because I have nothing better to do.

 

I thought about it a bit, wrist pin?

 

That would make sense...

However, I still don't know what the OP would want advice on...uh, yeah...they're going to need to tear apart your motor to replace those?

Because that's true. It's not going to be cheap.

What problems were you having with the car for them to discover this?

 

it's more fun than fixing a rispin..

 

and who is they? and how do u diagnose a problem like that wrist pins don't necessarily get loose. what is wrong with ur car burning oil, low compression, or plain old seized?

 

the prob is bigger than it seems , i never heard of a wrist pin until i was inquiring about this car. Basically it needs a new block, what will happen is at high rpms u will hear a knocking sound. i pulled the motor apart and grey oil came out, wow, so now i need a new block or preferably and new head and block together. yeah.

is there anything else i could do

 

I don't know the extent of your mechanical knowledge, but your first post made me want to tell you to put the tools down and step away from the vehicle.

HOWEVER...the easiest thing to do would be to put a new engine in it. I don't know if you would need to replace the head, but the bottom end would be easier to replace than the wrist pins themselves. It will be more expensive, though.

If you're mechanically adept enough to tear a motor apart and put it back together,(and it actually start) then you will save yourself a lot of money putting new wrist pins in.

 

Honestly? No.

Your motor sounds pretty trashed.

You have two options at this point...

1. Rebuild
2. Replace

That's about it.


If you are needing a new block, new head, AND new wrist pins (dear ****ing lord), the cost in labor alone is going to be through the roof.

In all honesty, It would probably be much cheaper to replace your engine...I'm not sure how much used F20c motors go for these days...eh...I'm guessing somewhere around $4k? Does that sound right?

 

Yeah, you can pick up a F20 for around 4,000 dollars. I have a built motor for far less, JE pistons, inline pro rods and golden eagle sleeves. Just build your motor, the F20s have FRM sleeves and if its shaking bad im just gonna guess your cylinder walls are scratched to hell.

 

hmotorsonline has them for $3800 but theyre sold our right now. Most other sites or places I see selling them have rougly the same price though.

 

My bro blew his engine at the track and we ordered one used from car-parts.com for 3500. So you're looking at that plus install

I'd recommend you resleeve your block and get better internals though

 

H-motors online if you call them you might be able to just buy the long block. But 3800 isn't bad for engine tranny and ecu. I'm so nice to even paste the link below.
