Hi there guys,
My first post so bare with me if this a usual dead rst type story........

Just bought a Fiesta RST and was running really well when i first got it, was boosting fine, didnt run too hot, and pulled like a train.

Today i started to get a light tapping noise from the engine only when accelerating slightly, whislt coasting the tapping would stop. I thought this may not be good so drove very slowly TRYING to get back to my house.

The knocking got louder, and as i dipped the clutch the battery and charge light came on. I then lifted up the clutch the engine spluttered a little but it continued to drive, still with the tapping increasing slightly.

The power then went completly, and i got thick whitish smoke from exhaust. I look back after pulling over and there was oil all up the road.

The car completly emptied itself when stopped, and will now not start........

Had it picked up and dropped off at a mates garage.....

What you reckon lads??

Ah well she'll live again!! Oh and if there is anyone local to MK rea that fancies having a butcher let me know!!

Oh by the way car has hybid t2, double capacity pace intercooler, standard head/cams and id running 11 psi according to boost guage.
Has helix paddle clutch also, fse boost valve.

is cooler full of oil??

i wud recomend a full re build anyway, ive never tried to fix jus one thing on my car, wen some thing goes major, i recon the lot, that way u get less trouble,less often

where abouts u from??

 

Sounds like its chucked a rod through the block or something along those lines if oil is pissing out?

 

definatley with safechav on tht, time for a new lump

 

are we thinking a new head too then?? i have just bought a head and sent it for pressure testing as well as fitting the new cam i got at the same time lol

 

Oh and it got soo bloody hot that the temprature sender melted and the ht leads did also. The spark plugs are completly knackered too.....
