Do a compression test. You might have worn cylinder walls.

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

plan on it today when i get my gauge back from a friend, but the motor feels really strong, stronger then my swapped civic did with 200 on all 4, we'll see.

dick slapping your womens (or guy u faggot!) cold ----- walls.

aka Piston slap

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

yup

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

whoop sounds like valve lash problem is it a pretty loud knocking or a small tick really fast if its a loud knock and it sounds like its coming from the head check you rod bearings lol eitherwise if it small fast little tics do a valve lash cause when your engine is warm the valve lash will sit in place but when its cold it will sing back to its original set iono cant explain SeaRCH

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

wtf you some kind of faggot boy ? its the valves so check your rod bearings ?? i say we could all guess but the only way to find out is to get your fingers dirty

Piston slap. Don't worry about it a lot of motors do it. Just make sure you have a decent PCV system once you boost it.

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

The only ------- question was 'should I boost it?' The answer is 'yes.' ---- off and go to hell.

and while your there learn how to use proper english

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

So do you just jump in your car, start it and take off like a bat out of hell? I've always let mine "warm up" before taking off. IMO its better on the car. Its kind of like trying to ---- a dried out ----- THAT ---- HURTS. Same concept with your pistons?

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

What I do is start it up, let the oil circulate a bit, let some heat get into it, then take it easy. Smooth acceleration, low speeds, and the thing warms up and most of the slap is gone by the time I get to the end of the street if I goose it.

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

O, well why not just let it warm up completely before leaving?

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

advance timing and cut fuel, that'll warm it up quick :y

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

^^^^ Should do this. He is completely right. 100% no ----. I did it, and my car runs like a champ. >:D

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

I guess you really should, but I don't feel like waiting 20 minutes for my temp gauge to move when it's 20F outside... not fun.

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

Neither is shelling out cash to rebuild your engine :P

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

The way I see it I'm getting more p2w clearance. The solution: turn the boost up.

Re: name what fucked in my motor
 

Indeed
