Is My Motor Finished???
So i was driving home today, just cruising, i take my off ramp from the freeway and all of a sudden feel like I'm getting no power, and a crazy amount of shaking...I shot at the light and the car is shaking like crazy, all the way the the shifter. I try to accelerate and am able to drive home, but felt like a loss of power, and the car finally dies out right in front of my garage...
I'm able to start it up once more and pop the hood. motor was shaking ridiculously and can here a ticking type of noise at idle... rev it a little and it sounds horrible but smooths out a little, and when I let off the throttle it chokes and dies out.
Is it time for a new motor? searched and couldn't find to much on this. Hope you guys can help me out...

Unplug the crank sensor take out the lower plugs and have a friend crank it over. The fact there and noise along with make me think there is a good chance of the rotors will have no compression. WHo knows may you are lucky and an injector took a ****(but unlikely).

thats kinda what i was thinking... thanks guys, I'll probably get it comp. tested. I keep trying to start it back up but can't as well which leaves me to believe no comp.

if your car restarted after it died in front of your house it is most likely ok something else might have taken a ****, ignition, fuel etc Ive never had a blown motor restart for me once its been turned off
