G14 smokes
Ok, so i just got a 95 G14. Had some Oil leaks, fixed 'em. now that i can run it, she SMOKES like heck while its running and sounds like the piston is Knocking... SO. can i replace the piston (and rings) by just removing the head or do i have to take the engine back out and do major surgery?

Re: G14 smokes
Probably going to need an overbore and larger piston. Hopefully it has not been overbored before. Measure measure measure.

Re: G14 smokes
Well Crap. i was afraid you guys would say that. i just had the thing out to replace the clutch side case/cover gasket. wish i woulda known it was bad as it is. it wouldnt start cuz of a dead battery when i got it so i never saw the smoking or heard the rattling. just the oil leaks and mess every where.
 Thanks for the info |

Re: G14 smokes
And alas the G 14 was a 2 year engine with a unique bore size making the replacement expensive compared with the earlier G models with the smaller bore.

Re: G14 smokes
The option I took was to part mine out on E Bay for $950 and bought an uninstalled VC 460 kit for $800. IF your parts are in good shape especially the ignition parts they sell very quickly on Ebay for about 1/2 list price. Just an option to consider.
