i dropped in a sohc vtec in my car 2 weeks ago and i drove it for 40 or so miles last night and when i was gettin home it just shut off down the street, i got it to start again then as soon as i pulled in my drive way it stalled out, this morning i checked the engine oil and its thick and a yellow/green color and now the car doesnt start. wat could be the problem?

 

bad head gasket?, how is the coolent level?

 

u might have a bad head gasket. Cause if ur head gasket is bad, oil and coolant mix and theres ur problem. Is ur resevior overflow tank like brownish green?

 

well with my last engine my head gasket blew and the car smoked out white smoke but it still started, my radiator is full and so is my reservoir tank and its the normal coolant color but the car doesnt start

 

try a compression test if ur car will crank up. open ur throttle body all the way and pull ur fuel injectors.

 

CAR WONT START DUE TO LACK OF COMPRESSION IN THE CYLINDERS. LAST HEADGASKET WAS LEAKING INTO THE EXHAUST SO YOU WERE BURNING THE COOLANT. NOW YOU ARE LEAKING IN THE INTAKE NOW AND ARE LOOSING COMPRESSION IN THE CYLINDER. USE A COMPRESSION TEST ON THE CYLINDER TO FIND WHICH CYLINDERS ARE LEAKING

 

you can rent the compression tester at autozone for free if you dont have one.

 

wat do i do after i find which cylinders are leaking

 

change the head gasket
