Engine build gone wrong??

[DarrenGT]

Hello people.. I done an engine build on my ep82 4efte starlet.. Ive done toyota big ends, toyota piston rings, 1 toyota piston and valve stem oil seals in the head.. BUT it started to leak oil from the sump so i thought it wasnt sealed properly.. i sealed it but kept leaking!! after trying to seal it 4 times its kept leaking and just got so bad oil leaking from everywere.. So anyone have any ideas what ive done wrong???

Thanks

have u checked to see if the oil is coming from the back end or front end seals ?

check your oil pump seals

Check the little insert at the back of the dizzy cap if you don't have sealer on it it will give you the impression it's coming from the sump. I'm on my phone now but il post a picture for you later.

Defo the sump!! Because the engine was spotless when i put it back together... could it be the rings upside down or that??

the sumps are bastards to seal,

they normally tend to leak where the hump is for the crank, put a little extra sealant here, the same goes for the other side

check ur crank seal dude they are a nightmare sometimes on new engines a mate of mine had problems with his

Ive changed the crankshaft oil seal ha.. im wondering when i fited the new piston were one of the other ones on the way out.. The reason why i changed the piston was because the ring land literaly FELL OFF!!!

Did you not take out all the pistons to check them for ringland failures as well?

Yeah but nuting obvious untill i put the piston rings on that piston
