LOL at another ClubGP style answer which is what i was LOLing at from the start. Maybe its your translator thats not working but i never called anyone a idiot for saying its a chipped piston, in fact in that same post i said it myself it could be a chipped piston BUT you need to do a few easy basic tests first. THE GUY DIDNT EVEN CHECK ANYTHING YET! He didnt check his spark plug wires or spark plugs and people here where trying to make him panic and saying you chipped a piston or blew your motor! My LOL was at the ClubGP style stupid answers where people think there cool for making a guy panic with the worst plausible thing out of a bad 15 second cell phone vid without even trying to help him at all.

If this was your best friend that came to your house and tell you he has rough idle and missfires would you tell him to replace is motor without even poping the hood to look at 2 easy basic things first?!?

I'm shure that when you have missfires you change your motor without checking anything first right smart guy?

Making the guy panic dosent help anything, before doing the ClubGP thing and saying that his motor is dead i was trying to help him do a few easy test to have a better idea of what was realy the problem.

Now that i see that he was still using his original OEM spark plugs and how the plug that he pulled looks i know that theres a very slim chance that his motor is still in good condition BUT theres is still that slim chance... The compression test will probably confirm what we already know but still leave the guy a bit of hope even if its super fun and cool to tell a guy is engine is toast

FYI, Even with headers if you have a bad tune and have your stock OEM spark plugs you can still pop a piston with a 3.4"

i said chipped piston in the beginning.... why? because it is/was chipped or even sitting in the oil pan. ive been there and done that. that wasnt a misfire... that vid was missing on a cylinder period.. VIA the whole spark plug electrode gone! and knowing hes running nitrous and a 3.4 pulley on stock manifolds and stock DP. HMmmm not hard to put 2 and 2 together. to call this place clubgp is blasphemy.. feel free to stick around and gain some knowledge on teh 3800. we have several turbo guys here.

hmm I told he to do a compression check in the first place, but I guess he does not want to do that. Must be too much work.

He never used nitrous on his car and he dosent have a stock downpipe!

You just put 2 and 0 together, you just prouved how the posts looks like the ones on ClubGP!!! Thanks!

But he DID Diagnosis the Issue. So I fail to see your point. Weather it took 2 hours of diagnostics or him hearing the sound for 5 sec. He was correct. If you think its okay to run a 3.4 pulley on a gen V with a cut exhaust and a intake Im sorry to see your a Mod at another GP site. Because your obviously giving out incorrect information

Yap yap yap, Point is he Got what he came for. A diagnosis. Might not have been what he wanted to hear.

Well spark plugs just dont look like a Pit bulls chew toy for any random reason. Theres nothing else to do. Damage has been done. Even if it runs its going to fail eventually. Dont get so butt hurt. Maybe we should just recommend he goes spend 500 dollars in diagnositics and waste countless hours to come up with the same conclusion.

With the cost being so low on used engines it would be piontless to try to repair. If I pulled a plug out of my car and it looked like that the engine would be pulled the next day. just my 2 cents

And if you read the first 5 posts it kinda kills your entire argument. Good day. im done arguing over something so stupid

^ plugs a give away.

if you really want to help this guy then end the bickering before this thread gets closed. simple as that.
