Ok, but if this confirms the rings are the culprit, what of my original questions?
Thanks,
Looking for a bit of advice here. I am in the process of removing my cylinder heads to have them refurbished (surfaces, valves, exhaust studs). I did a compression test before I removed them and one...
Don't mean to resurrect an old thread, but I think Steve Magnante and Mike Joy seem to be good guys. Pretty sure I've heard both of them mention DeLorean sans DMC-12.
Saw this on an Ebay car just now. Ever see such a thing? I suppose worse things have been done to cars, but I would imagine there would be limited miles associated with this mod.
Here's the ad:...
Hey Guys,
Just thought I would share this to save owners some time and reduce worldwide cursing:
I just moved into a new house and my garage is ill-equipped. After fighting for almost 40...
Thanks for the replies guys.
I think this may be a turbo misconception. The BAE system has one vacuum line to control the wastegate and oil feed and return lines for the turbo. It's otherwise...
So I'm a CIS n00b for sure. Unfortunately I can't find instances of people having similar symptoms to mine.
1. My car has a BAE turbo. (perhaps irrelevant)
2. It always starts perfectly (crank or...
Some could probably be cropped...:eek7:

FYI that's not an Audi engine. Likely the GM LS3 mentioned in the article.

In all seriousness, that has to be it. I loathe Chevrolet Avalanches, but I don't go around giving owners the finger; I just feel sorry for them.
This is a topic which is very interesting to me. I work as an engineer, exclusively building high performance composite parts for the aerospace industry. From the information I've seen, this is what...
You guys all have nice cameras and ride heights...

The temperature gauge in my car has a persisting issue where the needle will fall back (such that it's pointing slightly away from the side with the numbers) when the car is turned off. If this...
Just to follow up:
I did open a Fedex account and I did call Dave and Julee.
Analysis: Best transaction ever.
Shipping and duty summed to $90 for the $275 order, which although sounds high,...
That sounds very encouraging. So it would seem you would all recommend ordering from Midwest. Can I place my order online, or do I have to call in my order there?
I'm not disgruntled about the...
Hey Gang,
I'm about to put my first order in from DMC and I thought I'd check on your experiences with regards to shipping costs. I've been ordering MG parts from Kansas for years, and typically,...
First car I ever bought: 1970 MG Midget MkIII. Now only used to show potential buyers :(
Daily is a Cavalier... cause they're essentially free to drive and totally awesome of course... :thumbup2:
On the weekend I finally finished removing all the extraneous wiring, components and modules from the first owner's aftermarket cruise control and alarm system and buttoned up all the spliced wires:
I would also like to extend my profound gratitude to Tamir for his immense contribution. As I had posted before, the site has been instrumental in maintaining and increasing my interest in the car...
