hello everybody and welcome again to the annual jsayre914 Hershey emergency thread. was driving to work when all of a sudden boom. car was firing on 3 cylinders and white smoke was everywhere in the cabin coming from the engine bay and coming from the exhaust. pulled to the side and found one spark plug had knocked itself out of the socket. got the car home threads were trash. tapped new threads and prayed. fired it up and it started right up on 3 only. oil was absolutely everywhere dripping from the headers. oil was also pouring out of the vacuum hose. did a compression check and found the cylinder that had knocked the plug out showed no compression. I got a hundred and twenty five psi on the other three cylinders. to top it all off I work almost everyday now and I have no time to work on my car. life is very stressful right now and I'm almost ready to say I might not make it this year.......

No really....your post doesn't convey sincerity from years past. I think your're snowed in and have nothing else to do. |
