Wow lots of threads on BHG's I guess this is most likely my problem. When I got the car the bird cage light was on and I serviced it and it came back on again 1 week later. Now I have a radiator that boiled over to the resevoir, as well as the "gurgling" sound, a blown heater hose, oil loss (Significant) the remaining oil is extremely clear (almost transparent). Is it worth fixing or should I get a replacement Japanese engine?
P.S I am not even close to being an engine mechanic Last edited by Morty; 01-12-2008 at 06:43 PM. Reason: Forgot something |

yeah I am thinking it is most likely you HG. Anti freeze is probably getting into your engine and burning with the fuel that is why you would get white smoke.

I never noticed smoke from my exhaust before the breakdown. Is it safe to assume that the massive amounts of smoke from under the hood means I probably warped my head? Is it salvagable?

"hence creating power loss"......= incorrect statement. i always been told that all it does it recirculates, exhaust gas to the intake to reduce emmisions, and with the hot gas from the exhaust, rather than the cooler air preffered is which causes hp loss my fault,

It was dark when I broke down but it seemed greyish white..... I have been researching JDM engines web sites for the last two days preparing for the worst. Any recommendations????

Nothing is free .
there must be dozens of people that swore they weren't mechanics and have fixed a BHG on here . it might seem impossible now , but it's not
