euro02

im a truck driver i go up to seattle all the time. i was thinking of grabbing one of those but i really want a 2.0 if im going to swap. for now ill just put in a bearing and drive it and not as hard lol we have a road here called bogus basin road it goes up to the ski lifts, an amzing road to take the e21. i dont take it past the redline. for that ill drive a honda lol not sure on the oil pressure i havent checked. there was a 2.0 up in seattle a little bit ago complete for 60 bucks! i missed out on that. oh well. i dont care too much about going s5x or m5x.. these cars ill stick to carb and listed to the side drafts. for speed im getting a 2jz put into a 190e as well as a LS into my 380sl.

Looks like a spun bearing to me.  Rod caps on in the correct orientation?.  Crank needs polishing too.

 i dont know if theyre in the correct orientation, ill have to check tmr. im assuming it is since the bearings are original

i can faintly see STD marked on the bearing, i attached some pictures. the surface of the crank feels smooth without any grooves. i havent measured it yet.

now you guys got me thinking about a 2.0 lol

changing plans now, ill throw in a set of new bearings and drive it as is for now, in the meantime think about building a better engine.

if i wanted to build the engine up, should i start with a 2.0 or just bore the 1.8?

my inexperience is proven lol its actually a rod bearing that went bad. 

so from what ive been reading i measure using a caliper tool right?

Hey guys, long time since ive been on here. ever since i moved to idaho i have not had any 02s or e21s. have been struggling with my mercedes addiction.

finally got back into the game, got a 82 320is, after driving it pretty hard one of the main bearings went bad. 

can someone help me out with what bearings to get? should i replace all four? i plan on keeping on driving it hard. its all stock except has weber 40 side drafts. 

so, should i replace all four? if so what size should i get? what brand is better? ive never did any work on the inside of the engine personally so bear with me plz

Thanks for all the replies, I found a set of side drafts.

Hey guys, not sure which setup I want to go with, but I need to finish my 02. What's out there? Side drafts preferred but I'll be okay with a 38, but I'd need the manifold as well.

Regular 02 manifold will work.

I'll actually have to go out and check, I think I didn't cap the bottom one. Thanks for the insight!

Just put 2-3 drops of super glue into injecters. I used the stock throttle cable on my conversion.

This build makes me wish i stayed in school.
