And So It Begins...The Repairs
Well... she's down and out... i have 1,500 to work with... EVERYTHING is getting fixed...
start off... engine.. Headgaskets.. i was driving, yesdarday, With Ttop191..and the low coolant light came on.. after doing a redoculus Acell out of a stop light.. well. he got me some coolant.. and i filled it to the neck of the surge tank (the surge tank was also all black, it's brand new) and all that come out was a flurry of bubbles.. uh oh... got it home... got progressively worse, and i checked everything... all points to a front head being blown on cyl's one and two...(reason for P0202 for ages....) so.... pics for your enjoyment... |

mmmmmmm, maybe three months with a VERY VERY VERY slight leak (i used to have to top off the coolant, maybe every month....,and this past week it became hard to start.. i knew it was gone and kept checking different things like the oil, and coolant, so not long..and the last day was the day it officially blew... so i limped it home (not very bad, still no smoke/overheating) and parked it and tore it apart |
Sounds like you've had some bad luck with the car lately, last thing I'd want you to have is bad bearings later on.
|
well at lease he is fixing it not junking it. were are you going to fix the car.

From what i saw in your pics it looks like the ring spacer for the headgasket, what did the parts list on the box say? i bet its for the exhaust flange near the stat housing... |
I hope you dont intend on installing those SHIT LIMG's into that motor!
Thats almost a damned crime! |

I hope he does get it right this time. But this is just temporary because I am going to help him build the engine in the spring and summer. nate did u get the MLS gaskets.
|
For that he would be better off finding another engine to use.
So hes got a back up plan. |
