Re: Motor trouble or something



Sounds like he should talk to the guy that built it
  The 1 who said that there was nothing wrong with it when it was making noise
Everything I've read seems to suggest that it had a major engine failure and it jumped time
  Something along the lines of it blew the rings into the pan or a broken piston

Sounds like it is to far advanced.  Check the timing chain.

It tries to start every now n then. Maybe I'm not getting spark..I know for sure I'm getting gas. Sometimes it'll try to start but kinda diesels.

Well, I tried to crank it today, no go. Unhooked vent lines from air cleaner, got puffs of smoke when I try to start out of the vent  line. Wouldn't wanna pop off, popped thru the carb twice trying to. I don't know what the deal is.

>> So I drove my car today, got on interstate was like hell let me see what's she's got. Got on it for just a sec it was great. Got to where I was going it would barely idle. Popped hood the there was oil all on the passenger side header gasket area and looked like it was coming from cap and somewhere else. I noticed when I start it now, theres a loud "suction sound" comin from back I motor that increases with rpm. I checked vacuum lines etc and found nothing. To make matters worse, I went to clean headers not thinking and now my nice silver ceramic tti headers now have blue melted spots where rag touched. Oh Friday 13 how I hate thee. I have the worst luck with cars I swear.
