Pete also drove muh GTO on the Cinco de Mayo boating expedition.
I saw a wreck like that with a couple high school buddy's on the freeway on the ice. Like a full 15 passenger van or something slid into an oncoming 18-wheeler. An ambulance and one sherrif was there by then but they couldn't handle all the bodies fast enough. Saw a head in the ditch by where we parked, eyes wide open but vacant (obviously). Had to kind of avoid stepping on it when we got out of the car. They had managed to cover a couple other bodies with sheets but when you looked at the shape of the sheets, they followed a body up to about the shoulders then just draped down to the pavement. No head to hold up the rest of the sheet.
Sometimes the valves kiss the piston, other times they sucker punch it in the teeth.Found out why the kid's #1 cylinder was at 0 PSI of compression.

Hopefully those deposits of aluminum on the cylinder walls will come out with a hone.
Detonation is bad!

No, those valve relief cuts are stock. The big fuckin' hole right below them is from detonation, and I assume that it's a fairly significant event, as it bypasses all 3 rings.Sometimes the valves kiss the piston, other times they sucker punch it in the teeth.

So, Koenigsegg just learned what GM knew in the 1980s?This just in, cutting your HP in half by detuning the engine increases longevity

About to add a new car to the driveway. 2017 Audi Q5, 2.0T. Picking it up Tuesdsay or Wednesday.
First automatic I've ever owned. I feel kind of dirty.
And now starts the fun of selling the A4.
"I'll give you 400 bucks for it, it's in rough shape" "yeah, I'll get back to you I guess, I'll see what other offers I get"
"interested in any trades? got a mint dodge 1500" "the ad said no trades"
"Want an ATV for a trade?" "uh, maybe. Does it have paperwork?" "nope, no papers, VIN is ground off"
How about I sell it to you for $1000 CAD, you drive it from Halifax to Austin and re-sell it.Send it to Austin. You could sell it to a green bearded yuppie couple for $6500 and be back in time for work Monday morning.

You might want to fix the AC along the way.
Something like $800 USD?What's that like fifty cents or ten million dollars American or something?
I can make it blow cold long enough to sell it.
And ruin my sex life? hell no.I’ll trade you a bass guitar for it.
Well that's good news. I didn't even look up Canadian, just assumed it was strong, like how it takes more than a dollar to make a British pound. Canadia still worships the crown, figured it would be something similar.Something like $800 USD?
My brother used to sell cars past their prime while in college. He said you can sell any car by ending the ad with "First $1000 (insert whatever amount) takes it."And now starts the fun of selling the A4.
