i put a new battery in it and it did nothin
i just bought the alt. at autozone 2 days ago
the belt is new aswell
my radiator brake and battery light all come on at the same time and the go on and off
it seems like the car is running of the battery
or there is a drain
yea well i replaced the alternator cause it just started doing the same thing
when i rebuilt the motor the car sat for a 2 weeks and the battery was completly dead
i had them test the old alternator and it was only putting out 12 volts
so i think the battery is shot
anyone have anything like...
i just replaced the alternator, can it be my battery
my brake , radiator, and battery lights flicker on and off, the car starts up fine but when i drive it it loses all electrical power within five minutes of driving
well it turns out that the torque wrench i used was broken to tighten down the head bolts so thats why the head was leaking haha. but yea the car runs great now!!! has anyone ever had any problems of getting the top part of the thermostat housing to stop leaking?? cause mine leaks
yea i know the coolant line on the passenger side of the motor is leaking
and the head was properly done i did it myself
and a certified mitsu mechanic was there to tourque down the head and do the timing
yea im gonna look at the gasket
but yea there is def a lil bit of coolant dripping out of the head gasket
should it seal itself eventually?
i had the head at a machine shop and it was resurfaced and every thing
now i went to get new plugs then came home and i noticed this gargling noise and coolant was oozing out the side off the motor right by the water pump. the same spot wear the previous head gasket went
ok thanks yea i went up to the mitsu dealer and talked to a mechanic
he said that once the intercooler pipe falls off and its driven for even a minute after that, the spark plugs automatically get fowled. so i ordered new ngks and they will be in at 3 today
i cleaned out the throttle body and...
brand new ngk's, wires, the car was running mint till the ic pipe fell off. now it just idles wierd but when i give it gas it seems to drive fine till i come to a stop then it dies
i just literally rebuilt the head
there like ten miles on it
everything is perfect
i put in new valves and seals
so its not a crack valve
i think maybe my throttle body got dirty when the top ic pipe fell off im gonna go clean it
ok intercooler pipe fell off
but now car runs like shit and still makes that muffled gargling noise
the motor smoke but there is nothing leaking i think its just antifreeze and oil burning off the block from the rebuild. the car doesnt over heat at all.
the car still doesnt like to idle that...
ill try to take one tommorow
but yea i was driving and all of a sudden it just died
car wont idle at all and when i give it gas it just goes to 3000rom and wont go no higher and wont go over 20mph
and the car makes like a muffled/gargling noise which is wierd
car ran like new yesturday and today
car wont idle at all, makes a gargleing noise. the motor smokes from the timing belt side but i just rebuilt the head and did a whole headgasket timing belt job on the car. the car ran great for an hour then all of a sudden it just died while driving it. it wont go over 3000rpm and if i push the...
the car never over heated
the car was misfireing then when i tried to driv ethe car with the misfire the white smoke started pouring from under the hood on the belt side
ok cause i checked the oil there is no coolant mixed in with the oil
and there is no oil leaking just coolant
im think that a hose popped of and everytime the water pump spins as puff of smoke comes out
well its def coolant it smells like it, and the smoke is coming out of the area of the head gasket. the car is stock
anyone ever blow their head gasket
look at the video the power sterring belt was squeeling then just stop but i tryed drving the car while it was misfirein and the its like something popped and white smoke started to come out of the engine bay
i got white smoke coming out of the driver side of the motor
the belt would squeel for a while but would go away after car would start
but now the belt doesnt squeel instead white smoke pours out of the side
heres a video:

yea i gapped them correctly
a mechanic is saying its the coil pack does this sound right that the car and would have a super rough idle and back fire and pop when i give it gas?
cause i pulled the plugs and they where already black and they been in the runing car for 5 mins
ok all i did was put new o rings on the injectors, change the plugs and wires
the car just misfires and pops. when you try to drive it it just dies
i got a it block away and then white smoke poured out from under the hood and exhaust and the car died
can start it up again but it just misfires...
took the car all apart and now its still doing the popping thing drove it out of the garage and now white smoke pores out from under the hood
i think the motor is shot
yea the car pops at idle and misfires when i rev the engine
should I take the fuel rail apart again and double check everything?
there is like a blackish like water that comes out the exhaust when the car is popping at idle
heres a video those pops are the car backfiring
