Ok, so i took my car to the shop i used to work at, late night to change the oil/filter. And tighten up my downpipe bolts.(they were a little loose) So i finish up, make sure its all ok.. fill up the rad. with coolant and distilled water. Everything is fine, car warms up like usual, i start to head home, and everything is cool.. then i get on it, just before my exit, i hit .70 bar and i hear a pop.. car starts to slow down.. i try to give it some gas.. nothing.. so i let it turn off... coast into a gas station trying to wonder wtf happend. I changed the plugs hoping it was them again, but this time when i pulled them i noticed the two front plugs looked like they ran a little lean (one corner of each plug was slightly white) The car turns over, and cranks and everything, but just dont turn on. i have a fuel cutoff switch, an i thought maybe it was flooded, cut the fuel, cranked it, turn ed the fuel back on, an still nothing. What could this be? Im thinking its something fuel related, maybe a fuel pump or bad line or something?.. someone help.. i need this car running, since its the only thing i have to drive.. and i have to work on thursday!

 

face it, it's blown. i'm willing to put money on it. pull the egi fuses under the hood and pull the leading plug out of each rotor housing and crank it with the throttle wide open. do one rotor at a time. if one rotor doesn't give any loud whooshes it's blown an apex seal.

 

Run a compression check to be sure.

The cause - maybe a clogged injector or bad injector connector.

 

whats the easiest way to get to the injectors? to i have to take off the intake manifold, or is there another way around it? And im about to go try a compression test.. see what happens.

 

chech for spark, fuel and comperssion. Get a lot of peaple in my shop that screw with any that turns or what some one els says and they I say lookey here that,s 89$ pluse parts and labor to put this thing in.I came back from Woodburn locol drags it still ran didnt have any apexs on the front rotor. Point is ? I'm thinking, you know all ready what it is.

 

wasn't there a guy on the forum that said he did the same thing and I think the same thing happened however he found that when he hit boost the itercooler hose poped off. I don't know just something to check
