Hi just bought an S4 been stood for 15 years not run in that time , whats the best thing to put in bores befors turning engine over with plugs removed to let soak in bores other tips please .
First off, congratulations and welcome to the forum! We definitely need to see some pics and some info on the car ;-)
I just went down the same trail with the latest addition to the fleet, an '87 S4 that sat for 15 years. I am not sure if it was the best thing to use, but I sprayed a mixture of ATF and Marvel Mystery Oil into the bores. I stuffed the cam in some holes before that and they were clean as a whistle, but most definitely not lubricated anymore.
I like Kano Kroil. But getting it to the various areas with the pistons sitting at an angle is challenging, as would be the case with most penetrating oils. I used a long straw attachment that I found on Amazon. But honestly, Sta-Bil has a fogging oil and that is probably all that is needed, along with a 10lb hammer to “encourage” things a bit.
Had a fun day yesterday removing front wheels finally got them removed with mag tool thing nuts had corrded badly. Will be replacing them as they are 18 X 8 ET-50 have 245-40-18 . Monday will be rear wheels removed to see what they are .
I do hope that is a joke?
Because, if it is, you’re supposed to say, tree fiddy!
Cheers
Why do you think that's a joke? Lots of very hard to source 928 parts sell for big money, such as front belly pans (up to $700), uncut center console trim bezels for $500 or more, center blank between the window switches ($100 or more), nice non-sunroof headliners ($1,000), etc.
A rare one year only battery box cover will certainly sell for this number to someone who need it for a show car restoration.
