ok imagine, ive been working on this engine since august, probly the most high tech 1Z ever made, got it in a corrado VR6 evrything is looking realy good, starts and runs perfect. just about to put the intercooler pipes on, thort id wipe the dirty finger marks off the engine whilst it warmed up.
then out of no where the blue roll was snatched out of my hand by the inlet manifold :shock: and started spluttering a bit, so i literaly jumped straight at the key and turned it off, i stood in silence for 5 minits, i couldnt believe anyone cud be that stupid, especialy me :cry:
2 days of trying later and it came beack to life but only on 3 cylinders
so realised that it must be valve trouble, took the head off again, no valves leaked but one had visabley been slightly glanced by a piston. on futher inspection the valve was a bit stiff in the guide, i changed it, new head gasket and torqued it back together.
The engine works fine now, but let this be a leason to all. also if you do loose blue roll down ur inlet you shouldnt turn the engine off, you should hit the gas to blow it out as quick as possible and prevent it from gathering in a lump that wont compress
suppose i can laugh about it now :lol:
