74294, FS: 1996 RS "cheap"
Posted by willy, May-23-05 06:09 AM
I put in an engine with 50k in it and the timing belt broke. I replaced every timing part with brand new parts and it runs like shit so i am thinking it needs a head job. I am done fucking with this car. I will sell it for 1700.00 or 2700.00 with the wheels. It needs all the body work done. pics are availible at

i started it back up today and it runs but it just sounds shitty. i am almost positive that the timing is still on. i will take 2200.00 with the wheels if anyone is interested. I could get alot more if i parted it out but i just cant see myself putting anymore of my spare into it. I have 2000.00 into the wheels and tranny itself and there is just so many more brand new parts i am crazy for selling it so cheap but it needs to go asap.

im pretty sure it has bent/damaged valves, among other things. Its an interference motor, pretty much gurantee'd to happen. I've got a friend looking for an eclipse; i'll direct him to this post

i just swapped my spark plugs, wires, and distributor with my dodge neon that is supposed to be my winter beater but anyways, but it it is still running crappy. anyone know of a good site where i can get some valves and a new head. i have an old head with valves but i dont know if i should just swap out the bent valve.

Are you selling this? or keeping it? Seems like you have mixed feelings.

well i want to sell it because i have just given up because i have had to put in a new engine because the timing belt came off and a piston blew out the side of the engine. so i bought a used engine with low miles and completely rebuilt it. I got the engine in and 4 days later the timing belt slid off. I took everything apart AGAIN and put in all new timing parts and of course with my luck when i started it up it ran like shit(just like it did when i had a bad valve before). So i have completely given up and i just want it to go. I just wanted to see how much it was going to cost me to get it fixed. I know i can get alot more if it ran and the body work was done. I have just put so much time and money into it i hate to see it go but if someone else wants it they can take it.

i am assuming you are talking about the car. if you want to buy a new head for it i might make a little road trip. Maybe. It is on ebay right now and i just had a guy come and look at it last night. He said that he wants it but isnt sure if he can get the money. let me know.
