Eww 100 miles on half tank yeah not good. Most Acura/Hondas get like 350+ on a tank with moderate driving. Still a great find

 

<--- 120-150 on a full tank lol

 

Well once I can pick up the correct 02 i will get that plugged in. I guess I could always check what ecu is in the car. Not sure if when they switched from auto to manual tranny's anything was messed with.

 

Soooo it's been hella days since I last posted. I got all the rest of the cars problems taken care of. I got that 02 sensor put in. Did all the regular maintenence stuff, plugs wires cap, rotor, oil tranny fluid, etc etc... So I have been driving it for a while with no complaints other than I thought the car was kinda slow. I jsut figured maybe becasue it was a 4 dr there was some extra weight and the last B18 I drove was in my Hatch so theres a big diffrence.

Well just for fun at work I did a compression check and got 110 120 120 150
And this mornign the oil light was on in the car and I checked it at work and the dip stick was dry. And I just did my oil like 12 days ago. So now the car feels REAL sluggsh.. and I dont want to drive it at all... but I dont really have a choice since the datsun is about to go get stripped and a cage welded in.

Theres no oil on my driveway.. or all over the car. Its not smoking yet... so I ahve no idea whats going on... rings bad? Im pretty much stumped til the car starts leaking or smoking... And im guessing it would be cheaper to find a LS block to switch it with rather than rebuilding and buying new stuff right?

So yea any advice would be appreciated.. this totally sux....

 

that compression seems pretty low, and 1 cyn is 30psi off that isnt a good sign. Could be bad rings, you should give the car a leak down test to see whats going on with the motor

 

well i'd suggest starting off by doing a leakdown test and possibly finding out whats up w/ your compression/oil loss.

check the cam seals as well... oil has been known to leak from that location... and i've seen it get pretty bad

 

db's FTW!!!

Looks like I dont have the stuff at Goodyear to do the leakdown ... sux cuz now I will have to pay to have it done haha. Thx for the advice guys.. ill post up somethin once I get the time.

quickflip ... you lost me bro... sorry.. db's?
