my car has been leakin oil out by my oil pressure switch so I went to replace the switch. I figured it had never been done and it would be a good idea if it was leaking. so i took it out and put in a new one. I literally watched the crack spread on my block. It wasnt the switch that was leaking it was my block. There was a small crack on the underside near the switch and by putting in a new switch, it spread the crack and started a new one. so now my car is undriveable and I am being force to cruise in my mothers minivan. I was thinking of taking apart my engine, selling the good parts and getting a supra engine put in. what do you guys think?HELP PLEASE!!
thanks nate -------------------- The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |

QUOTE(lagos @ Nov 5, 2005 - 12:52 PM) port/polish and gasket replacement isint going to help you with anything tho. if the head is really that badly damaged, then you need to source a brand new head, or just find another motor to swap in .
