well... the other day my 90tq died a sad death.
the engine started ticking, on top of the normal lifter ticks, really really loud.
ie. (small ticks are lifter noise) tick tick tick tick tick tick TICK tick tick tick tick TICK
at the same time these new loud ticks started the knock light came on at 2500-3000 rpm, the
engine started to shake and lose power. i slowed down to check it and it then blew an oil line.
the oil lines were earls adapters rated to 150psi i think...
put the line back on, filled it with oil and nothing.
it holds oil still so i dont think it dropped a cylinder.. maybe a bent valve?
when i try to start it it goes WROOOOOO WROOO WROOOOO WROOO really slowly.
it doesnt sound like its not getting fuel or air... its an internal problem im sure.
im towing it tonight... it looks like i need a new engine.
im looking at getting another kh if the price is right... or a really cheap mc.
im looking at spending $200-500 canadian in the toronto - ottawa region.
(im in belleville, near kingston and will drive 2-3 hours)
if anyone knows what happened by that description, or has any ideas id appreciate it...

thanks everyone
luke
