How much is it worth with a duff engine?? lol

[gee1]

Rebuild it yourself!  take a look at the diy-re videos, and I would be suprised if they did not inspire confidence!

[Jit]

drive it till it dies! then rebuild it yourself. or buy a crate engine and swap them out. i know of a few tuners who you send your engine to (plus a wad of cash lol) and then they send you back one rebuilt.

[Jim_rx7]

It won\'t drive at the moment. It\'ll start, just... but die on idle.

one2watch ... name one please

[Joeh]

Could be an Oil seal gone causing flooding to the engine? Does it smoke like a biach?

[Jim_rx7]

Not 100% sure. Not something I can see easily while reving it and it won\'t stay alive if I\'m not keeping some gas on.

[Jit]

have you done the poor mans compression test Jim?
Joeh - have a ring around some of the big names! youd be surprised!

[Mobilemick]

Maybe a breather pipe came off the engine,  spend £50 on a mobile tuner to check it out;

It\'s just a case of no way to get the car anywhere as it\'s not running.

I will post my symptoms up on fduk etc tomorrow and see what those chaps say.
