DRYSUMP's Yet Another Restoration Project...Project

[meissen]

I think everyone that knows Kolin immediately thought "Got busted again."


Hoping it's something simple, bud! If it's cranking too easily, sounds like it doesn't have compression. Maybe something stupid like a spark plug came unthreaded?

all the plugs would have to have came out in order for it to do that.. it would still run if just one came out

True - dunno, just trying to think positive that it's something simple and silly.

Well considering the amount of people I have helping me to figure this out right now and the fact that everyone ends up with the same expression on their face (not a nice one) it's not looking good. Took one plug out and its trashed. Two more last resort checks before I spend my weekend pulling everything back apart.

Checking the fuses (its a ***** because I have them hidden now) then using a bore scope...


Keeping my fingers crossed its just a fuse and bad plugs now.


Brent: When you finally see this update and post in here... I think its time we both petition to start an "exclusive members only" for never ending projects.

does your engine come with any kind of warranty? Kind of a tricky situation.

I would say it comes with a wallet warranty considering he built it himself.

sounds like there may be plenty of pain and suffering at this point, I hope by some miracle this isn't the case.

Yes built it myself with the assistance of very skilled professionals...which is why this is even more f'ed up and pissing me off that much more and shouldn't be happening.

so, just lost power out of nowhere? There was no gradual degredation or rod knock, or anything like that? Might be some hope if not...

Completely shitty dude. If you need to unwind a bit tonight my buddy is having a bonfire/party in RO ill be heading there after ww. Actually anyone is welcome for that matter.

That's scary stuff. Hope it all works out. From seeing your car, I can tell you put a ton of detail and time into it. Hoping its something stupid and small.

I too thought you got busted by the photo on the top. Feels bad man!

[OIF1VET]

Sorry to hear dude. Sure hope it is something simple too.
