Omg. I can't believe I just spent an hour reading like the middle 20 pages of this, but wow. A search sent me here, and I've been on the forum a lot completing a major overhaul of my car, and getting ready to commission a built engine. Finding this thread, reading part of it, was like watching a snuff film from trump's private stash. In slow motion, on perpetual repeat. On acid. With my eyes medically dilated While wearing those scifi style surgical eyelid opener things.....While chained to a chair with my dick nailed to the seat with long trim nails. It was painful and uncomfortable, left me feeling morally confused, I laughed, I cried, and there might have been a little anger. I couldn't look away. My gf actually put on a little show trying to get me to come to bed. Didn't matter.
Not to be a jerk, or to kick a man when he is down....but you are so out of your depth. Giving the car the boot untuned with massive fundamental issues. Just driving it, and doing pulls/vlogs with large oil leaks and the check engine light flashing while the motor screams at you to shut it down as you watch the misfires reach the thousands... While it's stalling at every light. Crazy theories and guesses with zero fundamental mechanical knowledge and zero best practices or logical diagnostics. Complete negligence. Ignoring the tiny bit of decent advice he got. I'm shocked.....
Not knowing what your doing is not a crime. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. That's what these forums are suppose to be for. In theory at least; In a perfect world. To learn from mistakes, gather info, find help. I shouldn't even be replying. I should keep my thoughts to myself. BUT.... The willful negligence here brings ignorance to a level approaching menace.
I gotta read the rest tomorrow to find out what happened. I had to stop when he was blaming the clutch manufacturer for the toasted flywheel. That was enough for one night.
