hello all,if this is wrong place for this please guide me. i have a spun rod and need another one, it's a 1994 gmc soma. 4- 2.2 L , i found a used one relly cheap [ but ] it is a 04 year ecotec connecting rod out of 2.2 . my question is will this inter change . thanks
im pretty sure it won't. you may be able to find a an older toyota rod that can interchange but thats also a long shot
You want to look for a 2.2 ohv from a 95-97 cav or sunfire or even a second gen j-body. The other option is an s-10 or s-15 with the 2.2 ohv. Don't remember off the top of my head what other cars used the 2.2, Have your tried Rock auto or another parts store?

thanks guys for the adv. i found a napa over in the next county that can order a rebuilt rod and press on the piston for less than 50 bucks.
^ ^ ^ Only thing I can think of is reground for different size bearing.
If you spun a rod bearing, you've got other problems to contend with.
A Damaged crank journal springs to mind immediately.
Why did it spin?
Clogged oil port in the crank?
Bad oil pump?
Clogged oil pickup screen?
Clogged or cheap oil filter?
Is the journal worn so that is now too small for the bearing you put in or is it seriously out of round?
You spun one, what do the others look like? What about the mains?
Even broke, I wouldn't do what you are doing right now.
My prediction is that it will spin again. If you spun it bad enough to eat up the rod end and cap (a significant amount of damage), you've got other very serious problems to contend with. Your crank is trashed, no question about it. You are simply putting a band aid on a very serious engine problem that needs a much better repair done to it........... Money or no money, you've got issues here.
