sensor plug harness is completely soaked, and some water sits atop the pistons...

anything is possible with time and money

As for the sensor harness dielectric grease will fix that issue, just fill all the connectors with it AFTER you use a compressor to blow the connectors out. the block depending on the rust might need to be machined to clean it up

Check for pitting on the cylinder walls. If there is pitting it may not be repairable. It will need machine work though for sure it looks.

The good news is your snow injection system seems to be working really good

Sorry just trying to lighten the dismay at the condition.

Worst case scenario you need a new motor and have to rebuild the transmission. Looks like you'll probably just need some heavy machine work done though. You can fix anything.

 

[dwsjr15]

+1 on machine work and as long as theres no pitting then you should be ok after machine work.

 

[JStrateger]

Looks like too much of a headache to me. Unless you plan to build the motor, I would buy a decent used motor
and trying the transmission out. Chances are, the engine has to come out anyways.

If this works, you'll probably end up spending less money this way if you can find a motor for cheap. (more labor vs more money)

Also, what happened? Someone steal the hood off your car during a blizzard?

 

[95GSX_FTW]

...see because this was my re-build and i put every penny and dime into it last summer and was hoping to be done within the next few weeks...FML i cant rebuild it anymore I just started college and im a single father. This was supposed to be my DD. So looks like im out of the game for awhile...AGAIN


Thanks for your input guys, appreciate it

Yea there was some pitting

No just build up from underneath during that blizzard and was buried in snow till today when i finally got a chance to get around to get to it and looked into the bay and found it like that.

Actually, if I already had the new engine for my 98 built so I could drop the stocker in yours I'd be all over this car for my girlfriend after negotiating the shit out of it. Good luck bud.

Its all good man. I found it to be funny as well . I asked him if he knew what it meant and he replies with "Not really but it sounds pretty damn cool "

 

[95GSX_FTW]

Well guys, ive changed my mind. Ive decided to keep the car and fix her up. I got a great deal on a rebuilt 7bolt that would of come out cheaper than having all of the machine work done. As for the transmission wouldnt it be safe to say that if there was lube in there it would of protected it if any water seeped into there? Either way as a precaution im going to have it checked out and go from there.
