ok... so the car is overheating.. new t-stat, new water pump... all set right???
wrong... thinking it's a headgasket, but no water/coolant in the oil..
now after a compression test, and a wet test, the car sounds like it's misfiring like crazy.. plugs may be fowled out, havn't tried new ones yet, but oil is commin out of everywhere.. the back of the valve cover gasket, the place where the plugwires go into the valve cover, the actual outside of the valve cover is filling with oil... no idea where it came from...
what do you guys think i should do with this project??? wait for this stock to hit and take it to a tuner and tell him to make it fly? or is there a relatively cheaper fix?? =X
I'm not going to start replacing the head unless i order other stuff too, i mean, why not get cams and injectors, and and and.... etc etc.... but im kinda broke at the moment, so help me out here =X
