Hi,
My name is Farid, I have a 91' 318is that had a very strong engine with high compression results. Gave it to my friend to work on a few minor things (like the gaskets). upon receiving the car back after a few months, i noticed a different sound from the engine, if i remember correctly, like rattling or light chain slipping sound.
Long story short, this guy left me hanging and told me not to start the car. I am looking for someone to help me with replacing the chain tension guides and then going from there (as I understand, a compression test can only be done AFTER this, unless I was to start the engine now, which could be bad?).
Ive contacted a couple of places but they are too expensive,....any local people that want some extra cash and feel comfortable with this job? Any shops or mechanics you recommend around SoCAL are appreciated. The cars current zip is 91364, I can tow it also.
Thank you
