Repairing the Engine of a Chevrolet Corsa - Step by Step Explanation

Hello steeminian friends, today I will tell you a little about how to repair an engine, since a week ago I had to fix the engine of my car. It was not so difficult since my dad knows about the subject and between the two we managed to repair the engine.

The first thing to know is, if it is really necessary to uncover the engine, in my case yes, because the exhaust pipe was white smoke, that means that it was consuming more oil than normal Why this happens? Because the engine inside of it, it carries valves gums that are the ones that do not allow the oil to arrive more than normal and also in the rings they do practically the same work. My vehicle when uncovered we observed that in fact, had rings and bad tires.

To uncover the motor the first thing to do is to remove the spark plugs, which are the ones that give the current to the motor, then remove all the electrical system, wiring, branch, etc. This must be done with enough care because when you remove them you must remember where each cable goes.

When you finish that part, you will have to remove the screws of the valve cover and you will get the engine something similar to this

After this step, you must remove the screws of the camera to be able to observe the pistons. When you do that you will have something like this

After this step, they will have to get under the carriage and uncover the carter in order to loosen the pistons. Already at this moment what remains for them is to clean everything and assemble again, clear mounting the rings and new tires in my case. It is not difficult but it does have its techniques, in my case my dad knows a lot of these vehicles and we repair it successfully but if they do not know much about their engine I recommend that they go and repair with their trusted mechanic.

A big greeting my friends, with affection @jorlenbolivar
