elmarco 56 Report post Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) Haha - piston knocks alternator off the block = electrical issue! Brilliant. Bummer about the hole in the block though. You should get it cleaned up, chromed, slap a slab of glass on top and call it a coffee table. Or chain it to the front of a boat... Have you got a prime suspect? Or was it a random failure?

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted July 30, 2008 had a little issue with the e30 the other day. so investigated and heres what i found..... Going by the colour of the oil, I would say it already had a cooling system problem, either cracked head or headgasket, and the conrod has bent due to No2 cylinder hydraulicing and then shot out the side of the block....coincidental that it happened after picking up from the pound. It was probably bound to happen anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
