Blown engine?!

I still think they are messing with you and trying to get u to admit
that you race the hell out of your car.

Good luck.

that wouldnt work. even if there was a hole in the piston, the area beneath the piston is sealed. and that air pocket would keep any liquid from pouring into it without a way of the air escaping.

on top of that thats a stupid way to test if theres a hole in a piston... which ive never heard of happening, how in the helll are they gonna get the liquid out and it cleaned with out a teardown?

Although the pouring liquid in to test for a holed piston is unusual to say the least, it would work with a compatible liquid and the proper precautions to prevent injury or engine damage. The area beneath the piston is not "sealed" such that it would prevent a liquid from entering the crankcase from a hole in the piston. It would pour right through into the crankcase. As for removing the liquid, it could be vacuumed out of good cylinders.

The prevalent method for quickly determining the gross condition of the cylinder walls, piston, and head is to visually inspect it using a borescope (a flexible, illuminated, fiber-optic telescope) inserted through the sparkplug hole. No teardown is needed.

please don't post your personal issue/gripes in this thread. also, deleting his posts and not posting isn't going to help him at this point. theres nothing on here that could be used against him in a court, since the forum servers are in canada (canada)

edit: just to clarify my post see this from jersey_emt:

Mazda Forums is committed to this community 100% and will continue to be committed to this community 100% in the future (despite what some members may think or any 'conspiracy theories' out there). There is only one situation where we would even think about divulging IP addresses or other personal information to Mazda or any third party for that matter -- a subpoena issued by a court with the legal power and jurisdiction to do so. Thinking anything to the contrary is simply crazy talk. And luckily for any members who live in the USA, this site is hosted on servers physically located in Canada, which means that it would be very difficult for Mazda USA to legally subpoena any private information about members. We have in fact been subpoenaed (I think) two times in the past, but did not have to actually divulge any information due to the fact that this site is Canadian.

I deleted your posts because they had nothing to do with this topic. if you post more off-topic unrelated crap, I will delete that too.

edit: like I stated, I will keep deleting off-topic posts. lets get this back to the topic at hand please.

wow im suprised here this is the first of its kind with the corksport fmic setup i beleive...remember any little tiny piece that couldve been in the hard pipes or anything when u bolted it all together could become a missle at highway speed's.. anyways good luck to ya..Mazda sucks with warrenties i just would get the forged block from ken and go from there if uve got the cash..

If I had the money I would have had more items on there that would make my parts blowing the motor plausible. During the install I was careful as piss to wash all the couplers and rinse out the pipes a couple hours before putting them together. What happened to my motor sounds like a dentonation issue which from what I hear has happened quite a few times, and colder intake air and freer flowing exhaust helps prevent it from happening not make it more likely. I'm still waiting to hear from this regional service rep, I requested a call two days ago, and all the service monkeys are telling me is with my parts on there they pretty much automatically are assuming that they caused the problem and then started to get into me needing to show proof of maintaince records...so it sounds like they are looking for any old excuse they can think of to get out of warranty work.

According to this article I recently read... a hole in the piston is a classic sign of preignition:

"A hole in the middle of the piston, particularly a melt ed hole in the middle of a piston, is due to the extreme heat and pressure of pre-ignition."

and

"Thetypical pre-ignition indicator, of course, would be the hole in the piston. This occurs because in trying to compress the already burned mixture the parts soak up a tremendous amount of heat very quickly. The only ones that survive are the ones that have a high thermal inertia, like the cylinder head or cylinder wall. The piston, being aluminum, has a low thermal inertia (aluminum soaks up the heat very rapidly). The crown of the piston is relatively thin, it gets very hot, it can't reject the heat, it has tremendous pressure loads against it and the result is a hole in the middle of the piston where it is weakest."

boroscope?

i'll tell you above 19 psi with basic bolt on and no race gas/octane booster this car detonates BAD.
