Hello all,
I was driving down a country road, fast, but not terribly fast, shifted into fourth and the engine dropped into neutral, and overreved, and stalled. The engine then would not start, but was truning over. The colant level was a little low int eh radiator and smelled burnt. The engine bay smelled a bit of burnt colant. No fluid leaks of any kind. Spark plugs were not oily (top side only, did not have tools to remove) or colant coated. I removed teh plug wires and ecu fuse and the car made the same sounds as before (with wires attached), turning over, but no ignition, leading me to belive i spun my distributor, shaft or contact point.
Any opinions or comments are welcome, need some other perspective.
-Thanks

Do you have spark (with the fuse back in)? Do you have fuel?

writing the no igition was just stupid, excuse that.
Went to acura today and they think its a bent valve, remaining sealed, and not letting the engine fire. My frind has my compression tester so when that arrives, i wil go find out for sure.

Does it crank normal when you try to start it?

Check your timing belt, it might have spun,

A friend of mine just spun his belt and bent the a couple valves

Bent all valves.
75 0 0 ? compression
? is because the heat melted and fused teh spark plug into the housing, and shrapnelized everything. \
Getting the head off sat to find out damages

Head is gone.
4 is scratched to hell, and the piston has a hole in it the size of a silver dollar. you can see the entire connecting rod joint.
So i need a new head, and proble will get the block sleeved to fit CTR pistons (.25 over).
Anyone who knows good resourses for this will be very helpful
I've heard good things about Gude heads.
Machine shop is probley already taken care of depending on cost.
I need some good lines on CTR pistons though.
