my garage...56K **pulled a piston**
my spare bedroom doubles as a garage
http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg the work bench *its a old military feid desk modified to sit on the top of my dog's kennel http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg can have a "shop" with out a shop light http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg the tool box (i've had it for about 6 years now) gotta love craftsman... http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg the D16 im workin on http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg my shop bitch http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg and the beer fridge.... you can donate stickers if you want *hint* any sticker will be put on the beer fridge http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg edit, i forgot to add, the view from the outside: http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg on the motor, its hotrex's old motor. it was generesally shipped with 4 quarts of oil left in it. ::) "it was my present" the motor got here "all shrink wrapped" and "nylon strapped to a custom made pallet" but i think the person who shrink wrapped it forgot to shrink it or something...because it wasnt shrink wrapped, it was covered with a peice of plastic -and the motor wasnt even strapped down tightly. infact when the fucker (the guy at the receiving dock) went to put the engine in my wifes vehicle on the pallett, the engine almost fell off the pallet. I got the motor though, no sensors broke, everything in good tack. so hotrex lived up to his word. he cant pack for ----, and he shipps late. exactly what I expected. ;) ohh yeah, im still waiting on a few other things from him...he mailed it *i think* on nov 13th. still waiting.... ::) another edit on a positive note, before I sent him my money order, he would always anwser his phone, or call me back right away after i left a messege. once he got my money it was no anwsering phone calls, or returning pm's with responses such as "no" or "maybe" or "I dont know" or "whenever i get to it" (typical e-thug ---- ::)) on the phone, hes a cool guy (before I sent money, of coarse hes gonna be a cool guy to talk to, he wants my $$$) i know the mail system is a little slow at the moment,with the holidays and stuff... but dam, its been a while....2 weeks now. I think USPS considers 17 days "offically lost" it took my digi camera 12 days to get from NC to NY, but that was because we had it addrerssed to the wrong dept of the company, so no one would accecpt it..... but none the less, there is my garage 8) |

what do you think :-\
|
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
I think i dont know what im thinking. :P
really, i dont. "before I pulled it, it had good compression"-hotrex its not like it just sits in there and you can just move it like its nothing... but the others have 0 play, and that #1 piston has just a little. :-\ |
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
i remember him saying something about smoke at idle
that might be the case |
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
Here frank.. this is what I think too... LOL
"REDLINE300Z: hotsex and phiz must have fell asleep with the hone in their hands" Can you say Blow Bye-Bye!? ;) |
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
Now I see it. lol

I'd take the pistons out and look at them, chances are something else isn't right. The piston slap on that thing but sound like a massive ------- rod knock. :-\ But man you got fucked on that deal. |
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
no scaring what so ever on the cyl walls..."good compression test", i cant see how they could be that fucked up. :-\

Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
Sorry for a newB building question but how does something like that happen? Wrong ring gaps? Too much of a hone? I'm just not sure how there is tham much of a gap between the piston and the cylinder wal and it's still holding compression ??? Just kind of confusing whow it got that way.

Did you do the compression test yourself, see the test or are you just relying on what the person who sold it to you said? You can ---- up some pistons pretty bad and not touch the cylinder walls. I've fucked up alot of motors in my time so I've seen it happen.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think the technical term for that a HotPhiz'd engine :-\ |
Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
That ------- sucks :-X

Re:my garage...56K?-theres a few pictures...
i think it is good to have the ring that 'accessable' in case you want to change it without pulling out the piston :-X
