sooo, i dont guess ill be needing new motor mounts anytime soon. i was getting on the highway and doing about 85-90 when my buddy called me telling me my car was blowing oil out the tails. i let off the gas to get off at the next exit and the car STALLED. i rolled around the exit and through a redlight (with traffic) to a gas station. i then tried to start the car but it struggled to crank. i opened the hood and it was hot as shit (hotter than normal 210). opened radiator cap with no pressure and no visible liquid yet steam everywhere. my motor was also making a ticking sound intermediatley (whatever im in a bad mood). i finally got the car running from a jump, sadly a cobalt had to do it, got the car home while BLINDING, literally, my friend behind me with burnt oil. i shut it down half way there because i didnt feel like blowing the block or a head. oil light also came on. im wondering if theres a possibility that i blew a ring and that could cause burnt oil with a noise in the cylinder. what do you guys think? the motor has about 160k miles, im going to rebuild it and possibly supercharge it? definately going to rebuild it but id like to know what your opinions are. im in such a ****** mood right now, im selling my truck and getting a 2000 suzuki sv650.

I have a good used 3.0L with ~60k on it. Sounds like you need one.

Wouldn't be appropriate on an open forum, PM me please. I live in Illinois and shipping to FL is not what I want to do.

d00d, is that an echidna on that laptop? :rofl:

Anyway... sounds like you blew a head gasket pretty good. It also sounds like you warped the heads. I would definitely be investing in a new engine.

Also... isn't shit pretty much 98.7 degrees or thereabouts? Only time I've seen shit at 210 degrees is like... when it's in a flaming bag.

Sorry, I just had to... lol Sorry for your crappy day, I hope the new supercharged motor makes it worth it all!
