m10 rebuild

[JT325is]

Where do I start? I want to completely refresh my motor, port & polish.. new headgasket etc.. Anybody have input or experience with rebuilding an m10. Also want to know the pricing of things.. any recommendations? I know I'm going to eventually swap it out in the future but for now, just want to make it a reliable motor for my daily driving. Thanks!

Why does it need a rebuild?

i recently purchased the car, dont really know how many miles are on the car. dont want to risk it dying out on me

Its an m10, i wouldn't be too worried about it exploding on you.
Do you have knocking, or alot of burning oil?


Just do some basic maintenance, and a valve adjustment and you should be good to go.

the engine is surprisingly quiet, does not really burn oil. so i guess i shouldnt be too worried.. a valve adjustment is next on my list for sure and fix my leaking injector

ok need information about parts needed for a rebuild. 4th cylinder on my m10 is toast.
any help greatly appreciated.
