Posted by All4thaN0okie, May-20-04 05:32 PM
getting on the freeway tonight... in third gear..about 5k rpms at WOT... car went "pop" and i felt it start to slow down... and then white smoke was everywhere coming out the exhaust :(


looked under the car ..not leaking everything..... car starts right up... no problem... just smokes like a mo fo... i'm thinking headgasket... but.. what else could it be?? the smoke was white and there was A LOT of it....

looking at my checking account... i have $57 and.... $11
in my pocket.... no job... but.. i do have a check..probably for more than $1200 on the way... dont know exactly when it will be here though.. so... this sucks


but.. the good news is.... i have a 1g BOV on the way! and a brode UICP sitting right here waiting to be installed :thumbsup

its the turbo, its dead. my first ever encounter with an eclipse was at teh stoplight infront of my neighbor hood. a black dsm with bodykit rims and bunch of gauges was spewing smoke everywhere driving about 25mph. i yelled and ask what happened and he said he didnt watch the oil temp. it was wierd because it made me want an eclipse even more
