The photo isn't very good. But it looks very rich. What are the numbers? And the rough curve is often a sign of ignition break up.

Misread who, what or where? Show me what he said, and whomever it is you are talking about. Am I missing something here? I don't think so. And the other guy who said the shop cut a chunk from his car, then said when did I say that. Did he edit the post over night?

Welcome back. :)

Do you all know why the JZ series went with a MHG from the factory, if the engine is "indestructable"? The first of many to come. 99% rule still stands.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe some of the more experienced and knowledgable Supramania members are/were automotive technicians? People...

I have removed and replaced the starter in the driveway without a lift or powertools. But I also did not have a rounded nut. Removing the alternator is worth a try. Don't damage the vacuum switching valves or lines when you go in there.

If you are sure the smoke is light colored and at start up, it is leaking in during shutdown. There are two places where gravity can take it in. The valve seals, and the spark plug hole. But since I have not seen your car, this is just conjecture.

Pretty strong numbers considering the bad tune. You will get it figured out in time. Nice work.

The talk to MDC part is right. But your first part is wrong. Not only that, it isn't even close. Did you read that on SF or something?

It could also be a bad suspension bushing.

Actually, this thread is about proffessional maintenance and repair. Are you sure? Am I missing something? Do you want to amend your original statement?

Have you jumped any A/C switches?

It wouldn't kill these people to read the autoshop pages, and at least learn how the different systems are supposed to work. Then when it doesn't they know what to look for.

Something could be wrong with the seals that were installed. Color of the smoke is a good question.

You did. This is why I challenge you people on your "stories". He probably told you he had a hold down, and you just think that one is ugly. You make up the rest. You did make up the part about them cutting it afterall.

Looks like a lot of rust on that new cut... The rest of the story is just that. Are you trying to say they did unauthorized repairs, and you are doing nothing about it? States have garage repair acts, with rights for both sides.

He whipped you in a race, didn't he.

That is good.

That is just classic. +1:biglaugh: It is much better than than the dumb answer I was going to give.

We need more threads like this. All the correct information was put out. Wait ten seconds beofore moving the car. That way you have a good supply of oil on the the engine. Then drive normal, but not hard until it is warmed up. And don't hammer it before shutting it off.
