Blew up My 2.2 on 15psi
Friday, September 30, 2005 8:56 PM
well finally it happened, my motor went at the track tonite.( GOOD THING I GOT AAA) Anyway my oil seporator filled up after 1 run and my oil breather was injecting the oil all over the place. So i took it down one more time(it actually went better than b4) and once i was at the end i let off after doing 91mph and a big backfire happened. After that my pipe poured out smoke as well as my breather. The officials thought it was on fire because my pipe ends under the car. It was so bad that there was no way i could drive it back and it went for a ride on the flatbed. So tomorrow ill start on the motor replacement.

Yeah, don't they always run best just before they blow?

Any bearing noise, or just smoke/ no power? I wonder how that #3 rod bearing held up.

Well as far as the butt dyno goes, yea they run great. But if only your motor could make facial expressions. I think the facial expression the motor makes right before it pops is something like this:

It only did a 15.2 with the 3 speed i did a 15.4 at 6 psi then i started getting blow by problems so the extra boost diddnt help too much i planned on blowing it up cuz it got 140k on it and now im puttin in a stock bottom end with 38k and a p&P head, and plan on runnin it at 10 psi. i pulled the motor today and it broke the #4 piston.
