  • flex plate, also known as fake flywheel ;)

    Odd that antifreeze can eat through aluminum just like that :o Unless Ed poked the holes without knowing it when changing spark plugs.

  • lmao. you should be able to stab the head with a knife and still not get a hole.

  • Swaping the whole engine and not just the head. Why is that? Bolting on the converter is the job I hate do damn tetius.

  • it was cheaper.

see all

  • The rest of the engine is fine, just a freak flaw or heat related crack that corroded through early.

    I'll be fully rebuilding the old one anyway.

  • you can double the mileage since this car has been ran hard all its life. towing etc..

  • your right, this car towed a caravan for a lot of its life, and I've been using it to tow up to 2 tons at a time for 4 years.

  • The anti-freeze that was reccomended to me by the retailer was for new engines with different alloys or something. it just exaggerated a bigger problem.

    the 2 holes are not linked together by a crack so all I can think it was would be a thin casting with dross or other contaminants in the metal that were dissolved prematurely.

  • Very interesting - 5*!

  • My van has 160000 on it all city driving and its a 1987 not a problem with it. I had a 92 park ave that had 276000 miles on it when I sold it still ran strong and didnt didnt leak or burn a drop of anything. Again that was city my 91 pick up had 200000 on it all city and towing on it ran strong didnt have issues either so I guess I just have good luck with cars.

  • its not high miles if they were all done on a highway, but because the car is from 1991 (17 or so years) was probably lots of hard acceleration (City driving)

    Thats hard on any car.
