Hey everyone,
so its not a TOTAL loss because I have a near completed 3S-GTE sitting in the garage. but was wondering if it would be semi-'easy' to repair this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTWFLFDgtow so I can get the engine finished... any help or suggestions? Thanks, Kevin |

yeah, it started last night, I was on the freeway going about 70mph (speed limit is 65) and all the sudden there was a very heavy feeling on the peddle, and i had to acceleration. when I got off the freeway 5 minutes later, I heard it for the first time. I think a valve opened at the wrong time or something and got slammed bending it so it stays open or something... the spark plug was covered in oil and the piston was also covered in coated in oil.
we'll see how long it will last... thanks for your info  Kevin |
