so i need some help on this one today my girlfriend was driving my celica, it ran fine all day until she stopped and shut the car off for 15 minutes , she gets back in and the car wont start, just cranks over. after about five minutes bam the car starts and runs fine. She get its back here and i take a look at it . its running fine no knock. purring like it always does. so i shut it off, and guess what happened 20 minutes later . wont start . so i wait about a minute try again and it starts up. so i pop the hood and start looking around to see what going on. I found that the spark plug wires had **** the bed so changed them. then i decided to change the oil. and i found metal particles in the oil.
![]() ![]() Could these to things be related and what could be the metal in the oil. keep in mind the cars oil pressure never drops below 25 psi when running, it has no knock what so ever. and it idle at round 5-700 rpm. it sounds to me like im chewing up a rod bearing, or main bearing, but it dosent show any other symptoms but these .

so here is my newest issue and since it may have to do with a potential rob bearing failure i will put it in this section instead of forced induction. so i took my car out on Saturday night and gave her a work out . now the car has developed a hesitation (it feels like it did when hitting knock at high boost) but only when boosting the car above 7 psi but not always. Sometime it pulls like it always has. My first thought was maybe i had taken out the head gasket . nope cyl1 205 psi cyl2 207 cyl 3 205 cyl4 210. second though messed up the turbo , no abnormal play. third thought maybe its a fuel issue so switch it back to an older map to see if that fixed it, but it didn't. so i need to some ideas . also checked plug gap set to .30.
