Take off your valve cover...
Get a shop vac or some ****...
Turn it on and do work...
(You can probably even just pick the wood chips out)

Shouldn't be too bad really. Unless you decided to be an idiot and run your motor after they did that.

PS- Don't get back at them. Trust me.

hmm you might want to take it to a shop/tech to make sure if it has any other problems besides the ones you've listed and to get it fixed.

Sorry to hear that. First time I heard anything about putting wood chips in a motor >.<

You should most likely pull the cams to lift the rockers and clean beneath them. Pics?

F*ck thieves and haters!! I hate the fact that we can't even keep our cars safe any more. This is the same reason I don't bring my car to an event like that, I'll ride with a friend.

I would visually inspect everything, and change the oil just for good measures. Pulling the cams and rockers would be good, but if you're not too keen on the mechanics of the motor and valve train I would not advice it because you have to slip off the timing belt and all that.

If it was just wood chips without any sand or grit, you should be fine with the head cleaning. Block the oil drain holes.

Check the location of the drain ports. If it didn't go down one, don't worry about it.

Pull the valve cover and look on the in front of the exhaust rockers. There are three holes about 1/2" diameter IIRC.

Wood chips usually do not spontaneously migrate. If it is visibly clean, you should be good.

Unfortunately a lot of people are jealous or don't have anything better to do so they mess with peoples **** and vandalize cars. Karma will bite them in the ***.

It would be much easier if you could post some pic's. You might haft to pull the head off to thoroughly clean it out. You might be able to remove the cams/valve train and grab a couple cans of brake parts cleaner and a bunch of shop rags.. If you do this i would suggest starting the engine after everything's clean let the oil circulate and then change your oil.

Distance yourself from your "friends" at that bbq, because you know it was somebody there that did it.

Pissed anyone off lately? I guess it could also have been just some random person that rolled by and recognized your car if you pissed them off in traffic or something. Is your car modded to the point that someone could easily remember it?
