Need diagnostic help pls...
Hi there,
A few months ago, this 96 SC1 was purchased used. It worked for a short while. I was then told that it started pouring out white smoke. Now, I am in possession of the vehicle. Some observations:
Perhaps the most involved fix I can execute is changing the timing belt/chain. If this involves changing piston rings, it will be too much for me. Replacement engines go for $500-$700 which is a bit much for me. Thank you for any help! |
POURING out white smoke is usually indicative of a blown head gasket.
Broken timing chain would likely sound like a bikechain being ground into a toothed metal plate.... sounds like you have spark and fuel IS SES light on? If so please read and post the codes (Pxxx) here. You may wish to rent a compression tester or buy a cheapie to test the compression |
