So yesterday on the way home when i got on my street, for whatever reason i decided to floor it and wind out the gears, well im at the top of second, when WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAMmmmm car stalls and i get launched forward

Naturally i was paranoid that i blew the motor so i pop the hood and luckily see no gaping holes, look around dont see anything that would hint at what happend. sooo i pushed my car home, and went out with krys an her parents to dinner.

today, first thing i did was pull the plugs to see if anything abnormal happend to them, they all looked normal so i decided, to go ahead and pull the distributor cap off and have krys turn the motor so that i could verify that the timing belt didnt break, (easier to take off three bolts then take off the valve cover) i pull the cap off, and what do i find.......






LoL a quick trip up to vatozone, and shes running good again. Its funny how many diffrent senarios i thought up like last night guessing as to what it could of been. I was prepared for the worse, i thoght a valve had dropped (my lma's are bad and havent got around to replacing them). and i was ready to call my buddy and buy his type r head and start calling around looking for a headgasket and intake manifold gasket.

anyways i got lucky, im happy that it was something so simple, and inexpensive.

you could just take off your oil cap and see if the cam is turning

I had the screw back out so the rotor doesn't spin, thought the same thing, but got lucky!
