the 71 bmw 2002  was originally a 1602,, previous abuser loaded a 2002 engine in it ,,n stuck the first 2 pistons in molasses like oil ..

soaked the cylinder block from the top pistins w Marvel Mystery oil  for 6 weeks , every day adding a ml of MMO.. frozen stuck on first 2 cylinders,, using a post hole digger n a large tree bransh n slamming the pistons finnally got movement n freed em up ... this is what happens when u decide its cheaper to not change your oil on a regular basis ,,then soaked each piston in MMO for another month in coffee cans to break loose the frozen rings ,, cooked n glued in place,,,

.... now reassembly n load engine back in,, take alotta fotos ,, i had bought 2 other engines but they turned out to be hydraulic clutch engines not manual ,, so im staying w manual 4 now...

the former owner had a pick up truck load of parts he hoarded for 2002 cars,, what floored me is how he lost the title n keys yet hoarded a mountain of parts... theres no figuring ppl out........all the window rubber is toast ,, brakes r shot ,,, you can do anything ,, just break it down into smaller projects ,,,,,
