finally took apart my GFs talon *25 pics* - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

blackvr4 · 04-01-2008, 11:03 PM

she was driving down the street and the car just stalled hard, musta been going like 20miles an hour. (dont think its the timing belt, because ive had the T belt go on my bros Vr-4 at idle and i was in the car and it sounded like you are dragging the driveshaft behind you on the ground plus when his t belt went you could turn the motor no problem just had no compression) I tried turning the motor with a wrench and it wont even budge

will be tearing this thing appart further to find out what happened. it will give me a chance to change a lot of stuff on her car and make it sick

here are some pics from today, went from a complete talon nothing apart to engine out in a little less than 3 hours. which is pretty quick, got hung up on 2 things that took a little longer than expected, i think i coulda had it out in about 2 and a half hours maybe even less.

im the guy with the beard and the other dude in the extremepsi t shirt is my bro.

Dam that is one clean body. She has a nice car.

dude it is really clean, i just wish nobody woulda hit her in the parking lot at her work and running causing her to have a mismatched bumper

its ok tho im gonna most likely take care of everything on the car. when she first got her car it was the cleanest talon i ever set eyes on.

na engines locked up, im putting money on oil pump. cause i dont think its any way timing related. i haven't cracked the motor open yet. maybe this week not sure yet.

I feel like ive seen or met the dude not wearing the hat.

Why pull the motor out before diagnosing the problem? Could have been a seized cam, or jumped timing and banged the head up a bit....

its soo easy to pull the motor in this thing man (3hours is a joke), id rather take it all apart without being cramped under the car and ****, plus i want to change the clutch so its just gonna be way easier to do it with motor out. i also wanted to delete and clean the engine bay for awhile now just never had a good enuff reason. i think it might be worse than a siezed cam or jumped timing. unless its somehow the oil pump which isnt really a big deal. unless the bearings starved
