I need photos of the engine

[pelliastra]

Hello from Spain:

I´m going to start the restoration of my Renault 4 F6 and need some photos of the parts of the engine because it doesn´t works well. The problem is that the engine mixes the water refrigerant and the oil. In english i don´t know what is the name of that problem, in spanish is called "culata". The engine is a 1.1 cm3
Please put the photos in this topic or send it to my email ercuco@hotmail.com

Thank you

You need to get hold of the Haynes workshop manual. These often come up on ebay uk and can still be bought from Haynes (go to their website). If you are getting water in the oil it's likely to be the seals at the bottom of the engine liners or less likely, the head gasket.

If it's the liner seals then be prepared to do lot's of work - engine out etc -best to put a good second-hand engine in - there must be plenty of them over in Spain.

Hello:
Thank´s for reply me.
I don´t need a second hand engine. I have found several engines about 150-200 € ( around 100 GBP), but i don´t want to change the engine. The problem that the engine has is the spare in the photo attachment, but that photo is other engine. I don´t know the name of that spare.
I need photos to know how to disarm the engine to change the spare, because i don´t have photos of the engine disarmed.

Sorry, but my english is not very well, because because i don´t speake english since 3 years ago.
