car info:
1995 toyota celica gt convertible okay so when i got my car, i didnt really know what all is wrong with it. When i wend to the mechanic, he said i have low compression on one of the cylinders. He suggested a new engine. THen i went to another mechanic. he took some tubes out and told me one on my valve is bent and suggested a new cylinderhead.I got it to work, and installed ebay headers and an intake. about two weeks ago, i blew my header gasket. Now i ordered a new cylinderhead from ebay : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...RK%3AMEWNX%3AIT my brother now tells me to rebuild the complete engine. He says i now need the following: Bearings pistons motor mounts crankshaft oil pump waterpump timing belt gasket set lubricants and sealants i found a rebuild kit on ebay for 300 dollars shipped but it doesnot have the crankshaft, pumps and timing belt. i was just wanted to know if this is all i need and/or something else. and how much would the labor be for some stuff i cannot do it myself. please help me i would really appriciate it. if some of u live near houston texas (tx) can you meet me and tell me all i need!

Grounds..... I was thinking the same thing, I helped with an Engine swap in my friends Civic, we did everything right hooked up everything the way it was suppose to be hooked up and it wouldn't start, we started looking around and my friend bumped a wire against the frame and a huge spark scarred the crap outta us and I asked if he connected the grounds, funny thing it was all it needed lol |
