i was driving down the street at wot all of sudden at 5k the car felt like it loss power then at 7k bbboooommm. car dies. took off valve cover looks normal. try to start over it kinda just turn over no wierd noises. think the timing belt advanced. what are the odds of my motor being toast if it did advance. its a b16sir2 just got it from hmotors about 3months ago. do you think steve will still help me out even though my warrenty period is over.

depends on how far it advanced.

does it have spark??

fuel to injectors??

boom may have been a backfire.

 

Your going to be SOL because you felt it loose power after 5k and you kept pushing it. If there motors blown its all on you.

 

you couldnt handle your vtec?

 

hope your pistons didn't kiss your valves

 

me and you both i hope they didnt kiss on the first date either

 

pull your head. I bet you'll find a nice suprise.

 

Yea man. Pull the head. Doesnt sound good dude. =\

 

check the belt?? this scares me, im bout to order an engine on mon

 

dude hmotors is great the motor is strong they give great motors unfortunally my timing belt slipped ill get a new timing belt and go from there. hmotors is the best id buy another motor from them anyday

 

power died out and 5k and you kept going until 7k?!

i took the belt off the motor when i first got it inspected it. it was in great shape so i put it pack on

 

I hate to say it but Steve won't do anything for you.

i dont think he will in this situation

 

you only get 3 month warranty?

sounds pretty bad man. good luck to you!

 

does'nt sound good

 

same ******* **** happened to me, only, i didnt keep pushing it. I threw a rod on day 91 of my warranty, not my fault (oil light flickered, then i immediately threw a rod)

Steve didnt do ****. I know its out of warranty, but damn, one day and it wasnt my fault at all. I babied it. On top of that, motor came in shitty shape, broken sensors that i had to get on my own, etc. Everyone loves Hmotors, and it was my luck that i got a POS.

 

i bet all it is is the distributor cap and rotor. easy fix... :D -if you're lucky... happened to me, my car was out of comission for 5 months!! i thought it was blown, when it started yesterday i was SO excited
