Ok its been a looong time since i been on here, but with the latest turn of events im back. Ok about 6months ago i was on here talking and i had the blown headgasket. Well i went to change it and found out the reason my damn tunning was going so wrong. The headgasket had a pin hole leak in the #2 cylindar area and was leaking coolant into the #2 cyl. It had shut the spark plug off and the glazing was coroted(cant spell)
Well I was in school,working part-time,and HAD a girlfreind that we were real serious. Well I decided to put my car on hold and worry about school and saving money. Well needless to say, we recently split(dont know for good but damnit my DSM is coming back on the road)
Well now I have sent my head to a machine shop to get it pressure checked which came back good. The #2 cyl valves needed resurfacing but i told them to go ahead and do a complete valve job since it was down. Well now im waiting and trying to find someone that knows DSMs and can look at my motor to see if the #2 cyl needs honning,reglazing, or nothing. (I'll take some pics)
Im also looking for a good shop around Louisiana that someone can recommend that knows their shit. Im willing to travel :) need to get out the damn state anyway. Or if someone wants to drive down put it all back together thats fine too :)
Oh yea, well the tunning issues we thought was fuel problems was it misfiring its but off from all the fuel unburt. So this whole time it was running off 3 cyls! Can you imagine the damn traction problems im going to have off 4 with good tunning and MORE BOOST :)
