Kharma is srewing me over hard.

Mmmmm Tawny Port, look up close tolerance engine. You should be covered also you should get approx. 100,000 miles it of that belt. Sounds like it was there fault.

 

[markw4mms]

I hope your warranty covers it all, and hope your luck improves!

 

[tokerpipes]

Well crap the enine is a close tolerance engine. Which means a total rebuild... yet again.

 

[gwynclan]

Sorry, hope you can have them warranty it. You might need something harder than the port you are currently enjoying .

 

[tokerpipes]

I got Jamesens

 

[jameral]

Sorry to hear about your troubles, brother! Hopefully your warranty will take care of it for you, although it doesn't make up for the hassle of it all. When things look down they'll soon turn around. Kharma will be at your side soon again my friend.

Being an interference engine has nothing to do with it's tolerances. The term "interference" means that if the valves and pistons are not correct in their timing, there is no cutout in the pistons to keep them from crashing together. When they crash it generally means you need all new valves and piston heads at the very least, sometimes more.

 

[nsfisher]

Ya mate, 99% of foreign engines are that way now. But if work was warrantied you should be OK

 

[maduroman]

i suggest you switch to glenfiditch 18 yo and escudo.... that is what i use when i get a shit sandwitch...

 

[thesmokindragon]

Had some BS myself this AM....will be scotch and Escudo as well

for me tonight ;-)

 

[igloo]

Well did she smack the valves or did you get a nice clean break ?

 

[tokerpipes]

Not sure yet. Trying to get in touch with shop that did the rebuild. Work has kept me so busy so it will be monday when I can get it towed to them.

 

[joe912]

I gotta ask, where in Jax did your Isuzu go kaput? Even though I'm in Alaska, I have a fair knowledge of the Jacksonville area.

 

[tokerpipes]

San Pablo Just after I got off JTB. right at 5:30pm During rush hour. I was able to coast onto a side road so as to not get traffic any worse.

 

[joe912]

Ah, not a bad area.
Years ago, I worked on a job at the university hospital annex (8th ave?). Someone was sent out every hour to make sure our trucks were still there. Once, some thieves busted open all the work boxes and stole all of the tools and hardware out of a truck. And this happened before lunch with rent-a-cops patrolling the lot. Maybe they were preoccupied by all of the shooting victims shoved out of cars at the main entrance.

 

[tokerpipes]

Well my Isuzu will be out of the shop around the 1st. Warantee didn't cover the fluids or gaskets. So out of pocket I have to pay around $300 for the second rebuild on the motor. I need to find a timing belt cover since it is missing. Any motor heads have conections on getting one? Its a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo 2.2l 4cyl. the dealer wants $300 for it and I know its chaper some where else.

 

[jaysin]

300 for a gasket and some fluid? damn.....

for your part check the bone yards.

 

[tokerpipes]

I have. Nothing. The engine in my model was only used 1989-2000 and there were not many 4cyl sold durring that time. most people got the 6 cyl

 

[grizzly86]

Check this out
Hope this helps bud.

 

[tokerpipes]
