well some of you know i sold my lnf a couple months ago and im being patient on getting another car, so for the time being i have an 03 rsx type s. fun little car but i just stumbled across this cobalt for sale in my area and im thinking about checking it out. only thing wrong with it is it has a cyl 4 misfire. i was going to swap the coil packs and see if the misfire moved. then i was going to check the dip stick to see if its milky or not. possibly check the plugs as well. what else do you guys think?? im hoping its not losing compression or a ringland is band. what do you guys think?

compression test it

 

Worth going to check out!

 

cant do it where im meeting the guy at

im meeting him tomorrow afternoon

 

Id check it out man

 

its easy to do. bring the couple tools you need and the tester. you can literally do the test any where

 

I think it would be wortg checking out

 

im just afraid if i get this thing and i have to get a motor then im screwed lol

 

just talked to my buddy whose gonna tag along with me. hes bringing his compression tester.

 

im sure you could part it out and make the 2500 back if you blow up the motor lol

 

you think so lol??

 

if im not mistaken the compression should be 180+ to be healthy right?

 

you really should buy a lnf sedan.

 

ill trade you an 03 rsx type s lol

 

plus a lotttt of cash

 

Compression test it for sure. If u want a retarded fast cobalt there's a blue 1 for sale in the marketplace

 

If you buy it your gonna miss the power of the lnf.... so you should buy my TVS

 

Yeah def a downgrade from the white lnf but wouls be great to have you back lol

 

It's crazy how cheap some of these go for. I understand that it has an issue but if it is just a coil pack that seems like a steal.

 

you live in Pennsylvania go buy Staged's car!!!! all the goodies from GMP that are rare and not able to find anymore, and a damn clean car

 

well guys went and looked at the cobalt yesterday and sad to say but cyl #4 had no compression at all. the other 3 were pretty good. all around 170-180. but idk why theres no compression, either hole in the piston or valve spring broke im thinking. sucks but oh well. i think im gonna find myself an awd 4 door as a beater right now with winter knocking on the door soon. maybe a b6 A4 or a B5 s4 not sure yet we will see

 

I figured it was a dead cylinder. don't rush it. buy a beater and see what else comes up!

 

i have a beater right now lol. i have an 03 rsx type-s that im running back and forth to work and everything. i just want something with 4 doors next and AWD!! lol
