I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

this is bad, right?

engine. drivetrain. engine management & trouble codes talk.

Post by idreamidrive » March 29, 2008

tearing apart my old motor just to see why it was knocking so bad when i took it out, i came across this

pulled off the head and found this? notice it is missing parts of it. surpisingly i still have perfect hashmarks down the cylinder wall on all cylinders

pulled off the oil pan to see chunks of metal all over the place
Image
then i pulled the bearings off and they didnt come off with the journals initially, just glad to be able to pull them off and not have them welded to the crank.

trying to figure out what the fuck failed... any ideas?
