Jimmy Mc Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 Went POP on the mountain on Saturday. Sounds like a diesel! Bloke was meant to be coming over to look at it next week!!
CustomScoobyIOM Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 How the feck did you manage that mate? Rod snapped most likely. What speed were you doing?
Jimmy Mc Posted August 9, 2004 Author Posted August 9, 2004 I was doing about.......erm..........30? Going to have to wait until after my holiday to fix it. Reckon you could fit an EJ20 in one? Oil pressure light flashed then horrible crunching noise. Managed to limp it home, but it sounds like it running on 2/3.
CustomScoobyIOM Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 Ah sugar mate..... Oil pressure lost EJ20 into one? Anything possible but does depend on the box What engine is in it?
Cret Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 Sounds almost like my ancient fiesta several years ago. One night it spat a rod clean out through the front of the block! The trusty/crusty old shed carried on somehow on 3 cylinders & no oil for another mile or so until I got to my destination. That's a bummer though Jim, especially when you're trying to flog it.
