2.0l

[calimus at techography.net (Calimus)]

If the stud broke off flush wit the head down in the hole, it's drill and
tap time.  If there is a good little bit sticking out, you might be able to
get some vise grips or something on it, but it will take some grunt work.

As for the deposits, I would say a small ammount of deposit would be normal.
Oil blow-by is going to get pulled into the intake and therefore leave some
trails.  A link to a few pics would help in determining if the ammount could
warrent a better look into the head.  What you really want to look at is the
valve stem where is coming out of the head.  If it looks like oil has been
making a regular trip down the valve stem, then it is prollie time for new
guides.

If it helps, I'm also in the beginnings of a 2L swap and I'm sure I'll have
a few questions for the list as well.  Most of it seems pretty straight
forward, the engines (1.8 to 2L) are pretty much the same save for a few
sensors and the displacement.  So maybe we can both end up with a swap
completion around the same time.

Ok...got the 2.0l pretty much stripped except for the pulleys for the timing
belt, water pump etc...the head on this engine is considerably newer looking
than the block and seems to be rebuilt maybe?  the intake manifold is off,
the exhaust manifold is off but there are a few studs still in the block and
one snapped in the block too....(what do I have to do for that? drill, tap?)
Looking into the intake of the head you can see black deposits and such...is
this normal? should I take the head and everything off?  there is no leaking
from the valve cover and the engine was tested ok...is it just a matter of
switching over everything from the 1.8l?
I dunno...many more redundant questions are inevitable from me as I am a
rookie here!! lol
