Thread: Well it's time to rebuild....

Oops, i meant symmptoms of a bad turbo.

Anway, yeah i got oil in my throttle body, no oil catch can, and the previous owner had blew the Avenir motor and drilled & tapped a RR SR20.

i may decide to buy the turbo rebuild kit or just send it out to have the seals replaced.

Did a compression check... Came out to 140-140-40-140.... Anyone got a block forsale haha

Hey what happened to your motor? did you over boost or something i read some of the thread but didnt really understand what exactly happened.

no i think it leaned out, rob suggested that it was already going. I was getting mad blow by and i think that was kinda a sign. my maf and injectors were maxing out and i was going to replace them that night but i guess i was to late lol

You need the catch can that is most likely your problem

i am in the same boat as you last night started smoking, today figured out it was crankcase pressure so im sure it is the rings or ringlands, thing is my car wasnt detonating, was running 10:9afr's the whole time, but i have noticed lately that the car seemed like it had a low battery, so it was cranking slow so i guess it was just the motor gettting weak, i have oil on plug number 3 as well

So your compression is good and it's not knocking unless I am missing something here. I think I would check around for other issues before buying a new motor. What are you thinking went bad that would explain this?

hahah everyone is missing the compression...

It's #1 140 #2 140 #3 40 #4 140

Number 3 has 40.. not 140 haha

:o That makes a little more sense

Ok so it's down to this, N/A Motor from Mikos, or DET from TigerJap.

And Jere I didn't know you were from akron haha should come help me pull this thing out haha
