Thread: Running on 3 cylinders...

Thanks fellas I do appreciate it. I'll see whats up. Hopefully its a simple fix. Trying to make a spot on the map for us. Tired of hearing how our cars aint shit!

Don't worry bro, your spot is reserved. Fix 'er up and take them haters out.

Bes get that bad boy running to shut those haters hope is something simple cause that car run hard with nitrous. What would i need to run a nitrous kit on my current VE similar to yours Bes?

bump any ideas?

Zero compression you said?

You melted a piston dude. If its blowing smoke out the breather you definetly destroyed the ring lands on that piston and more than likely melted a nice hole in the side of it.

Im assuming you were spraying when the whole thing happened, correct?

Nope I havent sprayed in a little while now. There is nothing nitrous in the car. Now my dilemma is getting it home. Its 140 miles away. AAA will cover the first 100 but then the tow place I asked said 195$ to bring it the rest of the way. I don't know, I just want the damn thing home.

you talk to merliss? see if he can help you out

hope all is good man...hope its something stupid

I sprayed the piss out of my stock VE bottom. Took it like a champ. The car lost compression on #3 because something got into my fuel jet so it was spraying straight nitrous. This was multiple times on a 100 shot. We finally decided to tear it down and freshen everything up. I would go with a basic single fogger kit. I was going through bottles like nothing when I had that kit. 75 shot on a fully bolted VE is a very fun setup.




Nothing as of yet. Gotta get her home.

Weird. Ive never seen a piston melt n/a. So not likely that but the smoking from the breather kinda gives it away that there combustion getting into the crankcase so yeah definitely gotta be something internal.
