2nd hand d24 240 radiator. I flushed it multiple times. Also bought another d24 radiator (nos) but hose connections are on different sides. Will get new hose to run the new new radiator in the future.
Measured with laser on top radiator hose / head.
Yesterday I changed the oil, no water, no debris(bearings), did smell very bad (burnt).
Listened to the whole engine with screwdriver to my ear, can't really find anything unusual, except some injectors are louder than others. Even put car on lift to listen to the oil pan, no strange bearing knocks there.
Rerouted crankcase breather into a can, now know where all the oil is going. Quite some oil in the can after 40km drive.
Today further investigation into the ticking noise and another coolant flush. Did notice temperature was better yesterday, gauge in the middle all the way to 120km/h
Also, noticed left rear brake drags a bit (wheel was warm), extra resistance, engine needs to work harder? Or maybe it got hot because of constant overfueling through crankcase breather?
