Say if the piston is hitting the valve. Could i time the enigne, buy a new piston, valves, and rockers for it and fix the problem

 

Depending how far out of time the engine is (IF this is the problem) you'll likely be replacing 8 or more valves as ALL pistons will be that far out of time. You're looking at a head job but if it's not TOO far out of time the pistons likely are fairly safe. They may have small marks in them but they can still be used. If you're building a racer then you might want them replaced but for daily driving as long as there is no loose metal in there you're good to go. IMHO.

 

Okay can someone give me a play by play on timing a engine. Like as if you talking to a second grader so i dont mess anythign up

 

hey mike i spun a bearing in my car. i also have a video of my car when it happened, ill post it to see if its the same. the idle is bouncy from the IAC but the sound of a spun bearing is horrid.

YES!!!! Thats exactly waht it sounds like. What did you do to fix it

 

well that means you have a spun bearing, depending on how much you drove it like that. maybe a rod and a crank or i think you can get thicker rod bearings. your gonna have to take the pan off and see.

 

oh and how i fixed it was that i bought a built motor. and to fix your signature issue. you have to change [IMG] [IMG] to [IMG] [/IMG]

you have to have the / in the second [/IMG] in order for it to work

 

make sure the second [IMG] has the / in it, copy and paste this..

except take the space out of before http

 

heres a pic of what i found when i took the pan off when i spun a bearing, let me tell you, i had to drive like this for 15-20 minutes so i could make it home.

 

Okay were you able to fix the problem with out any major damage. And as soon as the sound started i was like F that and pulled over the car and it still sits there. But how much did you end up spending to fix it all in all.

Thanks for the sig tip i hope it works now
