Yeah a good little puddle of oil with only running for maybe 2 minutes total. Definitely concerning. No smog would be nice.
Hahaha yeah I could use your engine and control arms and you could use my solid body.
Unfortunately we just finished the engine portion but if I convince my teacher I can get it done quickly then maybe. I feel pretty confident I could do it with how small and accessible these engines are. I think the chances of me finding a good used engine is slim but I’ll start looking :/
so for oil to be coming out of that gasket that means oil is just being dumped into the exhaust? That’s what I was fearing as I saw it.
Okay I think that’s the same bolt that was a problem in a video I watched.
I think he misdiagnosed the piston rings but the engine never smoked when I had it just the exhaust and only on the first start of the day never while idle or acceleration.
Thanks maybe I’ll contact him, I just did a quick search on marketplace and nothing. Maybe I’ll call some junk yards.
I would assume the gasket is new with the cat but if you look at the bottom gasket half of it is hanging out and ripped off so I ordered the lower gasket I guess I’ll order the upper one. I’m debating if I want to buy a compression tester or wait until I can do it at school.
