[QUOTE=SloBaLt RiDeR;3311231]wasn't aware that you could damage #5 on a 4 cylinder motor lol. Must be some kinda crazy new setup. however slobalt rider would probably be pretty safe on his #4 and #2 bets

 

im sure he just got confused and put #5 instead of 5 dollars. lol

 

Yea, Otherwise he just let out a big secret

 

haha i know i just had to say soemthing about it. if it wasn't in the whole bet topic i woulda just ignored it. figured i'd try to make a joke outta it instead.

 

I know, i'm just saying. Be mindful, thats all. You should be good, but down here in the heat, these pumps don't seem to last all that long.

My mistake, I misread his original post and thought it said #5. Based on his silly dollar amount, I assumed the whole post was a joke, so I didn't look at it carefully.

Either way, its not a piston unless it broke in half. I drove my car for 6 months with a cracked #4 piston. That **** popped a sleeve.

 

yeah on the colder days up here, cruising it doesnt go above 70. lol

 

There is some kind of piston failure. I don't see how you could be doubting that. It had a **** ton of blow by and popped the dipstick, plus it has the WRX mod when he started it back up. I don't see why your so dead set on a sleeve.

 

because every symptom king's car has, joe's car had when it cracked the sleeve and blew the headgasket

 

Because I've had both happen to my car. Like I said, unless the piston split in half, just cracking a piston wont' make the car undrivable, and won't result in the huge amount of smoke out the back.

I've also seen the cars blow out a dipstick on a perfectly healthy engine, several times in fact. I don't doubt that a spike in cyl pressure could have overwhelmed the PCV system, but the fact that the car actually died, pumped smoke out the back and all that good stuff, is indicative of a far more serious failure than just a cracked piston.

Hell, i've driven a Cobalt around with 3 cracked pistons, comp test was 180-40-120-60. Car still drove fairly ok.

headgasket was fine, actually

I wish there was a market for a used Cometic LSJ gasket that only has about 5000 miles on it, I paid $100 for that bitch too.

 

All I know is I've seen a car pop a dip stick at the track from a blocked line from the catch can. The amount of smoke that trailed the car was quite similar to this, and he had no engine problems.

Could the sleeve be cracked, yes, but I don't think it is.

 

lol he will be taking the pics....

hard to tell there was oil all over the place. The oil fill smelled like dexcool

 

It did have a Dexcool smell but there was NO mixing present when checking of the oil or antifreeze.

 

Ya and chris's car did not smell like it tho

 

Was the coolant surge tank still full?

 

Yup. I don't know it's status as of right now, but after 1 hour of it happening it still had plenty of coolant in it.

 

I didnt check it when I was there today....

 

SS/SCKing, your sig is sick as ****. LOL. You should never get rid of that.

 

lol hey joe, iam still gonna bet $123,445,454,667,756.04094 on the sleeve not cracked, and im all in on #4 and side pot on #2.... (Kidding)

 

I second that!

 

I 3rd that as well, and awaiting results on diagnosis

 

video is deleted... damn.

 

^^^ i think slowswap was trying to update it to high quality

 

Link in first post is working.

 

somehow regardless of how sick his sig is i think he'd rather be minus a cool picture and up an lsj lol

 

wow very very depressing... did the same thing last summer... on the highway at 110mph she just went boom! dumpe dout more smoke then that and looked up the front tires!

now i have a badass built up motor! haha
