Alright with every minute im coming to the realization that the motor is fu*ked and that im going to be putting a new motor in. So can anyone give me a decent setup for the rebuild. I mean the entire thing. Pistons etc.

First off, do you know that the entire motor needs replaced?

Second, what goals are you looking for from the new build?

I am but like i said if they give me to much **** I will just replace what needs to be replace myself.

And easy you go swimming with it.

warranty is free

built motor = thousands of dollars.

I would put up with a lot of **** to save thousands of dollars.

Oh, hydrolocked....... Well can you or someone you know do a teardown on it? Buddy of mine sucked up water on his Neon, we pulled it apart and he was lucky enough not to damage the cylinder walls. We just replaced the crank, bearings, rods and pistons and it runs like, well I wouldnt say champ cause its a neon but you get the picture.

Well the motor isn't locked up. The pistons still go up and down etc. But I have terrible compression on all the cylinders and the car just won't start. She trys to start but wont.
