Ok I need some advice...
I've managed to get my hands on a complete A14 engine and 5 speed gearbox - (not telling anyone how much I did not pay for it) - but it has not run in about 6 years. It came out of a running car of a mate of mine when he stuck a Toyota Twin Cam in his Morris Minor instead. The A14 is pretty standard, apart from a mild cam and double valve springs. I trust the guy so I know that the engine was fine when removed, so here's what I need to know.
What things do I need to do to re-commission this engine? Apart from changing all of the fluids is it safe to just check/adjust the head bolts, tappets etc and if all is ok just fit it? What things can perish if an engine has been sitting for 6 years?
The 5-speed was re-built but never fitted... so that will be fine.
Any advice from the Datto experts out there will be highly appreciated.
Matt.
