  • So where should I look to find an engine?

    Don't know if my engine is going to go soon, but the tick tick tick from what I think is the lifters is noticeable now even after the car warms up. Just wondering, the engine has about 150K on it.

    If you were a DJ who tried to be a "real" hip-hop DJ and enjoyed trying to scratch and play good hip-hop, and now only find success by playing reggaeton and use your nationality as a way to boost your DJ career, you are a failure. PERIOD. You failed and jumped ship, we're not letting you back on the boat.

      yeah i don't have that mechanics touch to take this motor apart, nor the tools.

              Yep, more than likely your HLA's FTL.

              If it's not those, I'd suspect the timing belt tensioner.

                  I'm in Irondequoit, the noise got a little louder after this weekend. Give me a ring (585)329-6477. Appreciate it!

                  noticed im losing compression. oil pressure bottoms out for a second then goes back to normal but it makes it impossible to accelerate before it goes back to normal! help!
