Can anyone in the Phoenix area recommend a place to look for a new 2.4? Preferrably 00+. The bottom end on ym current motor is shot. The guy working on my car now says it's better to just swap a new motor in. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

I paid 450.00 from Joe and its just been sitting out back... granted it cost me liek 200 in gas money to go pick it up but I am not worried about that at all. Engine is a 2001. Complete. I would like to get 450.00 out of it but if thats not possible any fair offer will be great. Id really like to sell it soon as well.
the motor ran really well when i pulled it out of the car
Awesome let me see what I can do. I get paid this Friday. Can I get back to you by then?

I don't know if you guys worked that deal out or not, but just an FYI to you or anyone else in the same position, a good place to get motors for a pretty good price is woodfins.com. I don't remember what the 2.4 was going for, but a 2.2 ECOTEC with under 20,000 on it was 1K i think it was about 1200 shipped. Only catch is they'll only ship it to a business address- so if you go that route, line up a shop that'll let you come pick the motor up.
Hope that helps.
motor is in , just waiting for oil and coolant , and a once over to check things
Awesome, I'll be by later this evening with some coolant and oil. Bout how many quarts of oil will I need?

well the motors take 4 1/4 to 4 1/2
but i like to run the motor with some cheap oil and filter for about 30-40 minutes , then change the oil and the filter
because the motor sat for awhile , it helps to clean any dirt or moisture that got in to it
Aaah I see. Any recommendations on oil. I usually took my old engine to Valvoline. Been thinking about going synthetic but not sure.

i use mobil 1 , and i not sure what joe ran in the motor
but i can tell you i tried to get my 97 to toss a rod before my extended warrenty ran out , and it never gave me any problems , and i was down close to 3 qts of oil , which is usually the main cause of thrown rods in the 2.4
using the hour and minute buttons , you will enter the code # listed above the hour will change the first 2 digits , the minutes will change the 3rd @ 4th digits , then after the code is entered , hold am/fm button , time shouild display on the radio , then radio should fuction as normal keep these instructions with the code i gave you , incase you need it later
1630
you might need to do this first
turn car on(or acc) , then press buttons 2 @ 3 on your radio at the same time , and wait for a code to pop up (ie.. 123) write it down , then push the am/fm button down
then do what is posted above
No he's got it right. That was for me to unlock my radio. He put an engine in for me.
