Thread: Starter broke while trying to start car O_o

^D*mn, I wish that thread was longer. Conclusion?

I think it hydro-locked and broke it.

This is what I think happened.. You shut the car off and gas was in one of the cylinders. Then you put the new injectors in and they dumped fuel in the cylinder and it broke a ringland or put enough pressure on the bottom end to bend a rod. Regardless we can get it fixed....

^Yeah, it will get fixed. Now I need to tow it down grandma's and come up with a game plan.

Damn.. That sucks.. All over changing injectors..

^Yeah, tell me about it. I really didn't want to go VE this soon so I could finish my other build. It's definitely going to hit the back burner if this motor is shot.

where you able to get a video?

^Probably won't be until tomorrow. I been working two jobs and training for football, so I've been slammed during the week. I'm going to take all the new injectors that I got out and put some of my spares back in. I don't know how they are flowing, so they could still be flooding sh*t out. I'll take the VC off to make sure everything is ok with the head and do a compression test. From there if everything is ok, I might take the head off and see how everything looks.

before you do that compression test look into the cylinder with a flash light and see which cylinder is getting flooded then swap that injector out. either one might be stuck open or might have a bad o ring.

^I'll do that, but forget these new injectors. I don't trust any of them at this point. I'm putting the old ones back in.
