i milled the head smooth and reinstalled a lifter, rocker, ect. still running rough but thats another task im working on:headbang: . this car is the ultimate beater, its been through hell literally in water over the headlights sank in a river, mirrors deep in the mud, radiator frozen due to the snowbanks. thats just a taste of the fun we have in the "maroon rocket" thats what my buddies and i named her. we call her "the rocket" for short. the old girl is the best car to rely on though. 300k and still strong. a few bugs though. ill get pics up of her asap

i finally tore down the engine and the passenger side head a lifter actually dislodged itself and turned the rocker into dust:horse:

1985 rx sedan, when i try to start it the engine tries to run but as soon as i let the key go it dies. good spark, timing and fuel, im not sure if the switch crapped out or not, any suggestions?

87 gl fi pops through intake at idle i think it did overheat i stoped let the beast cool off and drove it about 1.5 miles back to my house shut it off ant went out later to start it and it started making that noise. the more i think about it wouldnt it have poor compression in that cyl if the valves are burned????
:confused: -
first off its a 88 gl 5sp d/r 280k. the problem is that when you push the gas off idle it pops through the intake, it has no power the damn thing sounds like its making popcorn under the hood. checked the timing and compression they were both good. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

my 87 rx is having some issues, it has a rough idle, sputtering, and a lack of power. the car only has 116,000mi. ive done a complete tune up to it and it hasnt changed much. the car has been sitting for 2 years prior to my saving another rx from the junk pile. im bout ready to tear my hair out with these problems.
any suggestions are greatly appreciated:burnout:
