Guys yes it happened, I dont have my pistons out yet but I have no compression in number 1-2-3-4- and alittle in 5, number 6 seams to be ok.
I was driving home from the movies last night (not particularly hot), had the miss's and the bub so was no pushing it. went to change to go arround a corner and she died, would not re-start, no kick.
After a quick investigation the throttle cable had came off and hence the valves were all closed = no fuel or air = no fire.
re attached it...
it kind of spluttered and ran and was making a loud lifter noise and then came up to speed then stopped. then would not start at all. no fire.
tow'd it home, rough compression test indicated nothing in 1-2-3 very small in 4-5 and pretty strong in 6.
checked the plugs and 1-2-3 were light brown, 4-5-6 were pretty dark, but NOT oily. Plugs are in good order.
checked cam belt, which seams fine and tight.
I think th eonly thing left is to assume some swiz pistons? anyone else got any ideas or suggestions?
only thing that is interesting is a week ago one pod cam adrift and was running one pod and one with out (both AFM still attached) so I would say that thr fron three were the one with out a pod and hence got more air? could this have caused it or did it just fail?
Guss I just want an idea of what happened....
Cheers guys!
