SPGTi 2 Posted January 13, 2006 Any one give me a estimate ? standard 8v 1.9 engine making funny noises and instead of buying a new engine id rather have a rebuild. Any body in the manchester area who does this at a reasonable price?? regards mike This will be way more than buying a new engine. I know of a reputable breaker of rally cars selling a slightly modded 1.9 8v for £295 near to you. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 13, 2006 Mileage unknown as the engine was from another car. I listened to it and thought the noise was coming from the pulley or close to it. The noise is constant but get louder and faster with acceleration/ revs! Would prefer not to rebuild obviously. any more help would be great. Im going to whip the head off today anyways. does anybody know the torque settings and orders to undo and redo the head bolts? Thanks again Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashlee205gti 1 Posted January 13, 2006 Noisy water pump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 13, 2006 where is the water pump on these engines? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hman205 1 Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) Runs from the cam Belt at the Lower Rear of the engine sounds to be most likely the Water pump or tentioner as most internal problems will be an apparant knocking noise a certain rev's Edited January 13, 2006 by hman205 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 13, 2006 thanks for the diagram im sure it will be a great help. I assume i may as well buy a cam belt kit and water pump and see ifthat fixes it? wheres the best place to buy this from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iety2004 0 Posted January 14, 2006 (edited) It could also be the alternator making a noise, bearing failure just thought i would add this for u not to over see it. What condition is the rest of the engine like? to give an indication of possible milage. cheers Edited January 14, 2006 by iety2004 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easypug 0 Posted January 14, 2006 Its all great replacing random parts you think might be the problem but if it doesn't solve it then its a bit of a waste, take 10-15 minutes looking at the problem find out exactly what is it then replace that one part. If you can find the specific fault then ask for advise on here, what kind of noise is it!? grinding, sqeeling? etc... Not having a go just trying to help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 14, 2006 well to be honest easypug i need to change cam belt tentioner and waterpump anyways as i dont have any history on the engine! If this doesnt do the trick then i will do some more fault diagnosis. Just bough 200 quids worth of bits of GSF any way. That included T13117 TIMING BELT-DAYCO 205 1.6/1.9/GTi 10.90 1 T13166 TIMING BELT TENSIONER-SKF 205 1.9 GTi 23.50 1 T17008 WATER PUMP 205 1.6/1.9GTi ALL,17D >10/86 18.50 1 T12045 OIL FILTER 205 1.1/1.4 87>/205D/TD/205GTi 3.00 1 T12104 FUEL FILTER 205 GTi 11.00 1 T11120 CYLINDER HEAD GASKET 205 1.6/1.9 GTi 12.60 1 98002 ENG OIL-15W40 5L QUANTUM GENERAL USE 6.95 1 N98200 Latex Gloves, box of 100 3.00 1 98732 SOCKET SET-40 PIECE GENERAL USE 5.00 1 98768 TORQUE WRENCH 3/8DR GENERAL USE*** 26.00 1 98799 TROLLEY JACK 2TON GENERAL USE 19.99 1 T98403 HAYNES WORKSHOP MAN 0932 205 PETROL 83>97 13.75 1 98721 SPARK PLUG SOCKET 3/8 DR GENERAL USE*** 2.50 1 Total 181.70 everything else i need for the jobs i have got!

Headbolts if your going to be doing headgasket, might be worth getting some instant gasket aswell. (not for the head gasket before any one says, water pump ) Edited January 14, 2006 by easypug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 14, 2006 what should i use with the gasket just the normal stuff? Already got head bolts! cheers! Use the instatnt gasket to give a good seal on the water pump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul T 0 Posted January 14, 2006 With the engine running try moving the cam belt guard, i've come across a couple which have cracked and moved enough to rub on the pully. If the cam belt tensioner is failing the belt usually starts to run off the pully slightly, which may cause it to catch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PUGMIKE Posted January 15, 2006 Cheers mate! I will take the cover off later and check that! Emgine is reasonably tappety as well. Do the headgasket and the cam belt / tentioner / water pump all for pease of mine. Give it a bloody good service and we are on our way there . Just ordered all the bits to do the body work with! paint primer sand paper filler etc! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
