So, i was driving home from school on monday and all of a sudden, blue/grey smoke started coming from underneath my hood and exhaust. I pull over, and pop the hood. I start the car up again(it has a lil trouble starting) and it seemed like oil was be shot everywhere, i couldnt get a pinpoint location but it almost looked like it was coming from that little breather filter thats on the valve cover...oil was everywhere. The engine also had a violent shake to it.
When i got it to my dads, hes been a mechanic for 30+ years, no oil was in it. We pulled the plugs and the plugs from cylinders 3 and 2 were covered in oil, 1 and 4 were fine...i did a compression test and 3 and 2 had 0 compression.... WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?! WHAT WENT WRONG?! I put a 1g dsm blowoffvalve on it on saturday, i apparently had it hooked up to the wrong vacuum line(the guy had the wrong line set up)...? Could that have been the cause? Im still wondering what could have happened...piston rings went? blew a gasket? Oil was being pulled through the turbo as well..a small small amount, turbo is still fine. How did oil get sucked into those two cylinders? How can i get it out? Is the motor done? GIVE ME YOUR HELPFUL WORDS!!!!! The guy who i bought it from on this site treated this thing very badly...he told me nothing and dindt say he was the 3rd or 4th owner I had to replace the starter and clutch after a week of owning it bumpppppp help asap!

Are you ****ting me? I treated it badly? UMMM i had it for more a little more than 6 months, fixing up issues from the previous owner and never beat on it at all because i only drive local. Then you and your "mechanic" father calls me 2 weeks after picking up the car and successfully driving a good 1 1/2 hours to your place in long island telling me I sold you a bad car?!?! - you and your father inspected the car, test drove it (stalled it a few times, then beat/raced the car up and down a busy crowded street - explains why the clutch went..probably glazed it by driving like a nut and riding clutch), and even said it was running great!! only issue was the cracking sounds from the axles along with the need for a BOV!! Do not blame your noob driving and poor sense of judgment with a turbo car on me. You and your father should really be ashamed of yourselves for calling me early in the morning threatening to sue and harm me because you can not maintain and drive properly with a turbo car on the streets.. the celica was in great running condition when i sold it to you.. be a man and just admit you got caught up in the moment when you went into boost, did not bother to read your boost gauge properly and overboosted it, which resulted in your pistons to blow - it happens all the time with inexperienced drivers. I am sorry you could not enjoy the car as you wished, but do not blame it on me.
oh and trying to sell a possibly blown turbo for 600 bucks? good luck with that.. fyi, i got that turbo for 1/3 that price and it was in good condition, with little shaft play. EDIT: laugh.gif hehehehe I just push mine to 100mph easily on my way home from school, im not scared to push it i just dont want to..and dont wanna deal with state troopers wink.gif 2.2l ct26, 460cc injectors, tanabe exhaust yeah, ive got a tanabe medallion muffler on now with 2.5" piping and , my stage 2 clutch just fell apart out of no where a few days ago, and i dont even know what i have on it now but it constantly slips and cant even take the car past like, 3200rpms it sucks but it causes me to not beat on her and burn gas wink.gif ^NUFF SAID - owned yourself there buddy - close thread This post has been edited by ravinaziankid: Apr 10, 2010 - 2:48 AM |
