#30856, "cool vid I took at school today..."




          

This is my 99 grand prix 3.8L with 278k miles on it. It has a crazy misfire that's finally been diagnosed down to collapsed lifter/worn cam lobe on the intake side of cylinder 5. Here's a vid of the engine running without the valve cover. You can notice that the far right rocker arm doesn't move as fast or as much as the others.

while your in there, might as well throw in a nasty cam. Had a friend with a big loping cam and it sounded mean as hell! Had some good top end for being an a/t. How long do they say that's supposed to take?

hahaha, no thx...


My dad is the original owner of the car and he just donated it to me as a dd since I'm in school and still have yet to find another dsm to play with.

The job should take just a few hours or somethin. I'll do it tomorrow afternoon barring any other circumstances that come up and the weather of course, seeing as I currently don't have a garage ftl
