ok, my guess is i busted a piston ring, but want more opinions..
i was racing.. and i kinda shifted into 3rd, when i really ment to shift into 5th, yeh, going 110, that did not fly so well, basically, i over revved the engine (atleast i think thats what caused this)
ANYWAY, when i slowed down and got off an exit ramp, i noticed something did not feel/sound right.
a buddy and I stopped at a gas station and poped the hood.
and very noticable CLICKING sound came from beneath the valve cover.
there are NO LEAKS (fluid) and there is a significant loss of power.
have I bent a piston? or busted a ring? or what? i'm getting my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow morning, so will not get around to opening it up with my mechanic friend until saturday. anyway thanks for suggestions.
