    valve stem fell...keeper question

    Here is what I would do. Get a pocket flashlight, pull out the spark plug and shine it down the spark plug hole. look down the valve guide. if you can see light, then the valve fell all the way thru and is in the cylinder. if you cant see light, then the end of the valve is still in the...

    5 second 1/8th mile Mk4

    A 5 sec eighth is like a 7-8 second quarter. The second eighth they are going so fast that it happens fast. you figure if their average speed between the the 1/8th mark and the 1/4 mark is 150mph then they go 2.5 mi per minute, which means they can do an 8th in 3 seconds. P.S. i like your new...

    Gas/Turpentine How do I know?

    I use Sta-bil in my atv, jet ski, and landscape equipment with good results. However I put it in while the gas is fresh. I know you lost your job but you are only talking about $10-15 worth of fuel. I would put it in a gas tank and use it to start bonfires but thats just me.

    Blue Smoke

    I know this wasnt what you wanted to hear but pull the motor again. My advice is to do everything now so you dont have to pull it again. Have the block machined, measure the cylinder for out of round per tsrm specs, if its out have it bored out, eitherway, you need to have the cylinders...

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    I'd like to hear more as well as I am in the market for a replacement as soon as I rebuild my motor. The problem with ebay feedback is people post it as soon as they receive the item, or as soon as they install it, so the feedback doesnt really illustrate the reliability of the unit.

    Blue Smoke

    Your compression test suggests bad rings. Just speculating here but with the cap off the crankcase pressure is zero, so your af mix was blowing by the piston rings even easier, thus less oil was finding its way up into the cylinders, does your oil smell like its getting fuel in it?
