first of all you shouldn't be trying to start it. sounds like there is more issues than a rod bearing, i would pull the motor and inspect the bottom end carefully. i highly recommend taking it to someone who knows what they are doing.Comment

yea id advise you pull your head off look for broken stuff inside, then go buy a used motor and do nothing but put it in your car dont open it up, find one with less then 200k on it and you probaby wont do anything to it for quite a whileShawn @ Bimmerbuddies

i would just stop and do some thinking first. its obvious you arent paying attention to these fine people, either that or you dont understand what they are saying.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

well i needed a head -edit-, it was my first time -edit- and i learned the hard way -edit- and not to forget to time the head. -edit- when i tightened head down it bent -edit- and broke. I paid 50 bucks for head out of the yard -not edited-, im about to fix head -edit- after i fix -edit-
sorry to be brash, you snapped your timing belt on a interference engine, blew it to shit, then tried cranking it...no good,, thats whats this snap pop bullshit sounds like..
You need to not try and fix yourself, or get a set of telescoping gauges, micrometer, do cylinder out of round, taper, etc., check mains, big ends, connecting rod straightness, length, width, pistons, valve seats, etc..
I'm boring myself... you put wong head mista mista
marbles? ps. m20 no have roller bearing inside engine... weirdoLast edited by E30QC; 03-08-2010, 08:40 PM.Comment

so i pulled my head off and theres no damage to pistons or head, thank god, and i did not snap my timing, so will go ahead with 2.5 head repair and replacement, then do rod bearings, thanks to everyone for the helpComment
