New head gaskets, intake gaskets runner boots all fuel lines replaced all vacume hose replaced. Fuel injectors cleaned (cruzin) new fuel filter air filtre, new plugs and wires. Pertronix.Set valves ETC. ETC.

I would have suspected as much. I told Joe just to get another used p/c so as to not mess up the (dis)harmony of his tired 1.8. He had to go and buy new ones. And then he did not break them in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I bet this is the cylinder that had the messed up piston originally. I bet the head and the register are kaka. He should stop throwing money at that low HP POS and put money into his 2056 instead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Those p/c were $300 that could have gone to cams, lifter sets, 2056 p/c, etc..... Joe is unusual (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
