Re: RIP motor #3 told you it wasnt dead. Probably that turbo or something. Were the plugs oily? That will tell you if you are leaking oil into the cylinder or if you are somehow leaking oil into the exhaust ie. turbo, or exhaust valve guide, or valve stem seal.

Re: RIP motor #3 So finally got around to pulling the head today and inspecting the damage. Cylinder #3 ringland broke between the compression rings along with both compression rings. Cylinder 1 also had a cracked ringland between the compression rings but the rings were still together. Both cylinders were starting to melt but other than that everything looks good. Gonna throw a new set of pistons and rings and hone the block. Should be good to go soon. Heres some pics  The mad scientist picking everything apart.  Melted  Chunk of ringland missing (looks shinny in the pic) Soon she'll be back better than ever!

Re: RIP motor #3 Wally, the day you school me about doing things right is the day you can change a T belt with your shirt without blowing shit up. And wes that WAS gonna be the plan but too many other expenses going on right now so im still unsure of what's going in the car at the moment.
