Sounds like a blown apex seal, have you done a compression test?

dm22508

How did you survive carbon lock?

maybe it was a broken seal and not carbon, and the seal was jamming hte engine before and now its just gone.

dm22508

well im not entirely sure a blown seal would have been cleared up by just using wd40. anyway... found a gifuckingnormous vacuum leak and now it idles since i fixed it. still have zero power. thought it was just old gas and burned it all out, to no avail.

yep still no progress. my friend says he thinks it might be clogged fuel injectors, i hope, but i think im gonna need a new oil pump/ opsu.

dm22508

oh well i thought i had blown my motor and was about to replace the engine... when i took the manifold off and sprayed and entire can of wd40 into the intake. turned over just fine after that.

Have you checked your compression at all?

your oil injectors are probably clogged or something.. run premix
