  1. Battery ?'s and problem/Aftermarket head unit problem

    I had a similar problem with my car. We swere stuck in very slow moving traffic at night, in a hot and humid climate. So I was running air con, stereo and lights, all at idle speed on the motor (because we were just creeping along or stopped). What happened essentially is I drained the battery...
  2. Does it sound like rings or a headgasket???

    Sometimes, but not necessarily. Might be bubbles in the coolant (constant stream), and possibly steam in the exhaust.Cars are like women...no similar problem has the same symtpoms, problems are difficult to diagnose and you never know exactly what it was you did to cause the problem.
  3. Front discs on rear

    I am looking at upgrading the front discs on my 96 GST FWD, and was wondering if the stock front discs would fit the rears?I realise that the rotor diameter is the same but since the fronts are vented I thought it may add some extra braking effect. Though I'm not sure if it will affect the...
  4. Does it sound like rings or a headgasket???

    Check the compression with a compression gauge. Make sure the motor is nice and warm. Cross check that against the shop manual but generally 140 - 160 psi is good. Pull all your plugs when you do this so you don't drain your battery.If compression is down, squirt about 1/2 teaspoon of oil...
  5. Loose Alt. Belt = Battery Not charging?

  6. What's this hole for? (Valve cover drain hole)

    OK, that makes more sense . Sounds like you guys have more knowledge about the car than the Mitsubuishi dealer.Thanks for your help.
  7. What's this hole for? (Valve cover drain hole)

    Yeah exactly. I've only owned the car 2 weeks. It has 20,000 km on the motor. I know my way around a V8 but DOHC turbos have me stumped. I haven't even had a chance to look at the problem since it died on the road and was towed straight to the mechanic.
  8. What's this hole for? (Valve cover drain hole)

    Help!! I have water coming out of the valve cover. It's coming out of the hole near the timing gear. I am losing a lot of water and hence boiling dry. I took the car to the shop and they said it'd due to the head being warped. I am getting the head fixed but I am pretty sure that a warped head...
