[gtpinsc]

i was on my way home from work today... passed some dumb b*itch doin 20 in a 55... went WOT.. This happened...

[gtpinsc]

freakin out... BUMP

[UR LOSN]

OMG!!!!!!!!! sounds like....rod knock.....and LACK of piston. I know that sound very well....

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

check compression on all cylinders, and drain your oil, check it for metal. sounds like ya need a new shortblock.

[gtpinsc]

motor done?... definitely missing a cylinder also.

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Holy sh!t that sucks can you tell where the sounds coming from supercharger, bottom end and so on

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

yea engines toast sounds like build time

[gtpinsc]

sounds like top end... valve area maybe.. car will barely run.

[Scimmia]

First things first, check your spark plugs. If one is smashed, well....
(going off of other replies, can't hear the vid here at the office)

[gtpinsc]

Ill at least pull the front bank tonight, waiting on a ratchet.


thanks for all the quick replies.

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Yea the vid sounds like crap through my cheepys speakers definatly sounds bad pull plugs and check um
if you have no power you definatly lost a cylinder or to time for a short block probably your best bet

[UR LOSN]

From my lil experience...

Piston is no longer on the connecting rod, more than likely shattered.. therefore the rod is just knocking on your cylinder walls everytime the crank turns... this would be what your hearing.

price out a shortblock and go from there. that is not valvetrain noise.... low pitched and slow.... if it were vlavetrain it would be fast paced and more like a tap.

pull the heads and see what damage has been done.

[Jakegday]

just curious, how many miles are on it?

[gtpinsc]

^ thanks... i dont know a whole lot about internals. what would cause this?

[gtpinsc]

130 k

[UR LOSN]

too much boost? crappy hypereutectic piston, they dont like heat..... knock/detonation.....

[gtpinsc]

well that makes 99 problems... luckily its tax season and i have 2 really good friends ASE certified. One owns a 5 bay shop.. perhaps time for a cam? any suggestions?

[UR LOSN]

XP..... really your basic cam.

[TheOtherNick]

I would say s1x, and yeah your block is toast.

[blueguy]

YAY KABOOM!!

Sucks dude...just do it 3 more time to catch me

[gtpinsc]
