Dude, you only need one thread for this topic.

Use punctuation.

Once you take the piston/rod out without marking it, there is no way to tell which cylinder it belongs in, unless you can match the wear marks on the piston with the wear marks in the cylinder. Don't expect any more help from me unless you learn how to write like an elementary school student.

see the thing is on the rods that has the numbers on it there is one 2 and three rods marked 3 does that mean anything or can u measure anything plz ppl just want some help

That number does not refer to the cylinder position of the rod, rather, to determine the bore to select the proper bearings to match the crank.

My head hurts.








Just buy high comp. pistons and do an NA build.

hello all i am new to this forum. i just bought a 1990 sedan and im also having an idle problem. when its cold the idle will drop from 2500 to 1000 and back up and then down and so on. It would continue to do it at stoplights and today it actually stalled on me at a stoplight (its an automatic) could it be fuel filter or fuel pump?
