okay so i've been outta town for the last week and a half; and the car has been sitting at my shop. when i got back into town yesterday, went to fire her up and head home, she instantly starting making this horriffic "rock stuck in a blender" noise. when i poped the hood i found the number 1 cylinder smoking it's ass off. (like me when i'm drunk
 )this started from key in ignition so i know it's not premature detonation; the engine wasn't hot enough. Sounds like a rod pinging arround maybe? come loose? also, this morning when i started it up; the smoke wasn't pouring outta the #1 cylinder like it was yesterday. I checked the plug wires for oil, but to no avail. i've got alot of oil on the top of the engine, but not in any of the spark chambers. before i goto the dismantlement, i'd like a few second opinions; so i got lil'bit to fire it up while i ran the recorder. hope this helps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PAX4OoDyiE sugestions? opinions?

Personally i would take off the valve cover and start there. When i had that problem about 3 yrs ago with my other car i just drove it till it broke and then dropped another motor in it. but then again that cost me a new motor, if its an issue you can fix i would take it apart and see whats knocking. It could be a piston hitting a valve, a connector rod thats either broken or loose, you could have something in one of your cylinders. Thats my guess, with my old car it was a connector rod that went through the oil pan and made 2 holes in the pan and 2 in the block itself. it wasnt pretty. If your #1 cylinder is smoking and knocking i would guess its valves are the culprit. Let me know if this helps.

rod knock.
steff says 30 miles. could be more, could be less, but that is without a doubt bad news. that dont sound good at all. if you plan on rebuilding the motor, i would run that motor as little as possible. sorry, dude.

thanks cyber, thanks Manny.
i was hoping that it wasn't as bad as i though. (like a lil' kid hearing that santa isn't real; i knew it- but i didn't wanna believe )well thanks to havoc, i've already sourced a new motor. thanks guys  or maybe i should just loot up the extra and do something a bit more dramatic? lol. we'll see what my finances will allow right now. -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!

hmmmm doesn't sound like a rod knock to me at all... sounds like the beginning of a 3sgte swap.
 Sorry about your rod knock though seriously. Good luck with whatever way you're going though buddy.

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.
