thats why im saying..just do a compression test and be sure.

cars with a blown rotor have a VERY hard time idling at a low rpm.

OK well i just drove it to my parents house an it didnt do to good it has no power whatsoever a pinto could beat me an i have that 3800rpm hesitation thing. but when i pop the clutch it pulls for a second an then drags *** an of course every time i press the clutch the car revs up a little an sits. you really think i have a blown rotor cause the weird part of all this is that before a pulled the motor all it did was run hot after about ten miles an now i'm havin all these problems after i put the same motor back in the car didnt change hardly anything i dont understand
