Well I got the ute running great and was having a ball in it.
It was proving to be everything I wanted it to be from the start: something small and light and can have some fun in on a windy road but also something I can use to pick up parts and junk for other projects ive got going.
It was awesome for about 3 days until it overheated about 50m from my driveway. I pushed it home and left it until today.
Tried cranking it over and seemed as though it had next to no compression. I figured it was a piston ring so I stripped it down to find this
Now I dont know what to do with it.
1- Just forget about it for another 6 months until i have time to strip the motor back and go all out rebuilding.
2- try buy another L18 or L16
3- Buy a SR20 and take it off the road for 12months
If anyone knows for a L18 or L16 in Vic or southern NSW please let me know.
cheers
