Default How to blow a dx motor...? any suggestions...

this needs to be w/out being obvious b/c my mom said she'll drop the money for a b16 as soon as my motor goes...it already has a blown head gasket...and for some reason the cylinder closest to the timing belt its spark plug wire wont go down all the way...
---how long will it last @ redline?

advance your distributor all the way the run it all out like that on regular unleaded, once it blows you can turn the distributor back..

take off the air box so air flows freely through the throttle body. I always wanted to see what that would do. but yeah, doing some third gear redline- 2nd shifts should do.

When did your Mom say this? i'd wait a few more months maybe or else she'll suspect somethings up...the redline thing would blow up the head gasket and she may just opt to get it fixed...draining the oil would do it...it would be a slow painfull death though...Make sure that you have roadside assistance too, hehe.

very good point, lol. and try not to make it too close to your house either cause it would be too obvious. and yea like EF_LSVtec said - if she just told u recently, wait a little while, but still drive it hard while you're waiting

wouldnt it make more sense to just sell the motor for a few bucks? just tell her its about to blow and you can make a little more profit from it That or just beat the **** out of your engine or slice your timing belt and bend some stuff heh

Do a cheap turbo system like buy the compressor and down pipe and oil and charge line and run 15psi. Your car will MOVE. Expect some serious detonation = engine blowing.

find an empty parting lot with a few friends
get a brick and lay it on the gas then run away
start a pool with your friends to see how long it will last
that way you can make some money while blowing your engine

dont u even think abou t putting **** on ur tank!!!! that will mess anc clog the fuel pump and the lines... u dont wanna do that....
if u really wanna **** it on a few seconds , do the 3rd redline thing and slap it into seocnd... be careful bc u prob will be going aroun 80 mph and WEAR A SEATBELT!!!
if i were u , i will drain the oil ,. and put some water base **** into the intake manifold... and add some BB's also!!!!!
and run it like u have never done it !!!! i will hydro lock, seize and blew the engine in a nice beautiful way!
