someone i know volunteered to hold them when i cranked

L1lflip 07-11-2009 06:28 PM

ok i changed the coils and it started but then it dies i started it again and was holding the idle at 2k but it just dies, and it sounds like a lawn mower, is it a blown rotor?

L1lflip 07-12-2009 04:09 PM

L1lflip 07-13-2009 01:45 PM

ok so i started my car today and held the idle at 4k and it started smoking alot and it had a sweet smell to it what is it?

that would be your engine burning coolant which could mean you blew a coolant seal somehow and the cure for that is a rebuild
