  6. K50 Gearbox Rebuild

    in KExx Corolla Discussion

    Posted

    So I'm rebuilding my K50 gearbox and there is three "interlock pins" where are these meant to go as they just fell out as I broke it down.

    As a note the rebuild kit that my local drivetrain shop got me had all the bearings seals and gaskets bar one roller bearing that is apparently unavailable. Given this they took the old bearing cage and put new rollers in it for me.

  12. 4K Carb Advance

    Fair enough. It was just an interesting idea. I don't know what my dizzy is off. I pulled it off a 3K I have lying around and it has two outlets on the dizzy. So you just T the two together?

    I would get a timing light and see which port advances and which port retards when vacuum is applied then block the retarding port

    I have a 4k in a sierra and i'm trying to sort out the advance.

    Not sure if this is normal or not but.

    With the advance vaccuum line on the advance port(i think) the dizzy will go from 8deg down to 0deg for just less than a second then it will come back up past 8 deg and up to whatever..

    I havn't tested with a timing light but with it on the manifold it still seems to happen

    The carb has literally nothing else attached, no emissions or anything

    only things connected are choke cable, accel cable and advance line, every other port is blocked off.

    Also this is only testing while sitting in the driveway under no load.

    I usually use a combo of a drill through a socket to get it close enough.

    trick to get out the engine bearing is to pack it full of grease and hydrauliclly push it out by tapping a bit of rod ( usually the shaft of a drill using a piece of wood on the end to hit the hammer against) the right size into the hole.
