Message Is it running right now? Did you guys attempt to work out the kinks after the said noise?

I would get it running the best you could and do a leak down test. If the piston smacked the valves and bent them, you would know with a leak down test. Do a compression test while you are at it also.

If the leak down and compression test are bad, yank it out and figure out what it is. Don't jump the conclusion thinking you would need to change the piston yet.

I have nightmares about that happening...I'd be the poor bastard you'd hear about on the news that gets killed by a softball-size chunk while spreading out my body over the hood and screaming "Nooo!" (Having a conversation about hail damage) - BradZ (FL) on March 25, 2005 at 9:56 PM

Tell your friend that you could take a dump, light it on fire and that would be hotter shit than his car. Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM

P.S. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours! And I thought I was bad! :) - zmenon on August 16, 2005 at 3:06 AM
