Today after the socal mini meet i went up the 405 to meet up a few homies. With my g/f tired i decided to head home for some r&r. On the way home, traveling east on the 10, my engine when by by. I was only going like 65 and I was with in my boost limits but something gave. Engine changed noise and power droped.
I drove home from western exit to calstate la jsut going slow. Any applied power cause a knocking noise. getting off the freeway it souned like it was running on either 2 or 3 cylinders. So probably blew a rod, colapsed a piston, or blew some rings. Either way im F****** up the butt now. Im just glad i was able to limp home. So soon i might actually have my trubo set up for sale. Cus if i rebuild the 5s im not truboing it. And if i swamp for a red top im not guna need the trubo. What do u guys think rebuild the 5s? If so what kind a pistons and connecting rods should i get. Compression wise and company wise, where can i find them. What else do i want Should i do a BEAMS swamp? if so what tranny should i use? Should i d a 3sgte? im so sad i think im guna cry. |

shes dead alright.
i doubt its just the head gasket, because a head gasket wouldnt make your motor knock. take off the oil pan and see if u can see anything funny going on . -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

[right][snapback]354391[/snapback][/right] motor doesnt knock n e more. i can keep it at a stable rev point and it still wont knock. And as for before i dont think it was knocking it may have been something else. perhaps the valves? Im not sure. as for my car backfireing it had always did that. Im not sure why cus i havnt been able to dyno it. Im pretty sure it was something due to timing. This post has been edited by urbandork: Nov 8, 2005 - 1:08 AM |
