WOW abrupt engine issues on new jasper.

My temp used to do that right before the hg blew the fiznuck out, and I mean lost its' wad. Broke the rear off of 6 on a graphite hg bloched job by previous owner.

See, I'm not the only one who thinks you didn't have enough fuel.

Run a block test to see if your HG is blown.

I would add ARP main studs to that list if I were you.

well if it happens to be the hg i dont plan on doing a rebuild. Ill simply get a mls head gasket with some arp bolts or studs. Since theres only 3k miles on this engine and its a mild blow, the head should still look brand new. Although ill send it out to get resurfaced. The block however should be ok. Well see when i pull the head. As to the fuel thing. I dont think it is fuel at all. I tuned this car specifically to run really rich. Reason being when i did end up turning up the boost. My fuel is there to compensate. I never retorqed the hg and i was running 12-14 psi out of a .57 trim ct-26, thats why my hg blew. I just hope it last till the cash is there to do this tear down.

Btw i hate hacks, where can u get one of those block resurfacing tools you were speaking of? The big ass heavy thing you turn on top of the block?

I borrowed it from one of my boys from this site.

They cost like $400 but I don't know where he got it.

see if you can maybe get in touch with him, id like to talk to him.

IHateHacks · 06-18-2007, 12:17 PM

Well you see, he lives in my state, only about 30 minutes away. He brought it over and left it here for a couple months, then came and picked it back up.
