2.4 Ecotec Engine Rebuild - 2012 Equinox PT 2 

24:00 water pump change on the engine stand is super helpful. I've got an LE5 sitting on my stand and a timing chain/pump on order. Thanks for the clearly filmed and narrated procedure! Keep up the great work!

I have an engine from this development series (ECOTEC) in my current car, interesting for me to see it from the inside and how it is built. As always good work, thanks for your effort and time!

Enjoyed your video. Nice work, you're a very conscientious craftsman.

Excellent work! I always enjoy and learn from your videos!!

Buy a thread chaser, beforehand, it makes life far easier and is less problematic.

You would be an excellent teacher!

I need to get this done on NY 2006 Malibu LT 2.2L Engine!

I am about to complete this overhaul and place this engine back in my vehicle using these videos and Cloyes as a model for my project, I am working on a 2011 Chevy Equinox 2.4 Ecotec LAF engine, I drilled holes in my piston ring OIL grooves, Jasper engines do this for their rebuilt 2,4 Ecotecs now to control oil consumption, they claim a 300 percent oil consumption reduction by doing this. I did mine and am about to get it back together and try it out. Check out Jasper engines reasoning on this.

Woow excellent job. I need to do the same with my captiva chain got loose and bent valves. My engine is a LE5 ecotec 2.4 I think they are very similar to

כל הכבוד מקצועי בטח מנוע מאליבו כמה עלות אברהול רק חלקים בלי עבודה

Any chance you have the LEA engine service manual available to download? It’s been a phenomenal help

Great video. If the cam shaft seals on this engine needed to be replaced could you explain the procedure? Thanks

question about marks on cams. my manual says to clock the cams at about 10 on intake and 7 on the exhaust... I have a 2012 terrain 2.4L 2011 says 7 & 5

Great video!!! 👍🏿👍🏿 A lot of info

If the torque spec for head bolts is 22 ft/lbs why would you turn them again and wouldn't that be above the torque spec?

Quick question regarding roller fingers… are they suppose to be tight or loose?

Question, this being an aluminum head when taking the head off should you do it in sequence and quarter turns to keep from warping the head, or is that a concern at all? Thanks

Where can I find all the spec for rebuilding the 2.4 engine? torque specs and the cam position when putting the head back on?

What was the approx total cost for this rebuild? I'm trying to decide whether to rebuild or replace. Thank you

Your new pistons have scalloped valve clearance, so do they no more interfere with the valves in case of timing chain mishap?

mi amigo muy buenas noches cual es ajuste en libras y grados de torque la culata o cabeza de motor Ecotec 2.4 te agradesco tu informacion gracias

I don't have a manual, could you tell me how tight the head screws are. Swiss Brazil

Hello..i replaced the timing chain kit in a chevrolet captiva sport ls 2.4l three times in about two months..it runs good just a couple days and then start making a grinding noise again..that ia why i had to replace it three times in a short time.i dont know what is wrong..

What torque are the connecting rod cap bolts?

Bro what was the torque spec for the blue cam shaft cap bolts at time 15:00 ? Thanks in Advance

2012 captiva finally threw a timing chain. I have some rockers that are loose when not in contact with the cam and I can pull them out. Suspecting bent valves for sure. Is it really worth just replace it the head and doing a new timing chain and guides? I need to get this car back up and running

What about block warpage
