Hawkwolf223 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Hi All, Posted a short write-up about an EJ25 to EJ20 swap. Thought it might be of interest to have the EJ25 video available for diagnosis. I suspect a spun bearing... Replaced the engine and plan to rebuild to have on-hand for future use...

ccrinc Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Yep, that's the infamous rod knock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Wow that's BAD. I wouldn't bother rebuilding a 2.5, they're really picky motors to rebuild properly. I've seen many people rebuild them and they just go and blow up again. You need to line bore the crank holes, hone the bores with torque plates, etc. If you wanna rebuild it, make sure and do a lot of research first.
