my project.. 2.4L TOHC
Tuesday, September 13, 2005 9:53 PM
ok here is what i have done to this car so far and what is left..

i had to strip the motor and redo the rod bearings cause my sister ran it out of oil for i dont know how long then i traded her my 91 cavy for her 97 Z24 the one that i'm having to do all this damn work to.

before i started


pasanger fender


trunk


this will all be fixed by tomorrow i'm hoping. dont know how much it will cost but them pics are the ones that i took just acouple days ago. i'll have some new pics up here after there fixed but what i'm asking is if anyone in the area has what i'm looking for? i need a trunk with the Z24 spoiler and a passanger fender. the motor pic will be up tomorrow hopefully if i can get it all back together. my girl wanted under the hood all green so i took the 2.4L twin cam cover to my friends grage and he is painting it for her and i'm looking into getting her the lime green air filter and all that nice chit. but i'll let you all know how it goes.

tomorrow hopefully get to test drive it. pray for the car that it get's back together and i dont end up blowing it up cause it pissed me off when it dont start. " knock on wood " yeah i have never worked on a 2.4 so i'm just shooting the moon right know

correction good sir. the official scientific term is DOHC. But for some reason GM decided to say "twin cam" like there is a difference.

well ppl i'm having a bad problem right know i got the car back together but now it turnned over about 6-7 times and then it stoped all together. the starter is kicking in but the motor dont want to go with it it's like it's stuck on something but it's not. or it might be and i just cant see it. maybe someone can give me some advice on what's going on. i can turn the fly wheel backwords 1 complete turn but when i turn the key on to start it it only goes to where it stoped at when i started turning it it's like something is in the way now i dont want to tear it all back down so i'm hoping that some one might be able to tell me what might be stoping it from turning over.
