i was the one that did the head gasket, my bud that has been working on cars for 30 some odd years did the valves for me..like i said the water in oil thing was related to the de-icer gasket on the throttle body going bad... wasn't related to the head gasket going at all

See i had a problem with some coolant getting in the oil and i realized the problem before driving it and making a big mess so i'm not sure what the hell happend i'm wondering would it be best to rebuild it or what??? its had a valve job about 40k ago and new head gaskets..

i was just making mention of the hot water i'm in now with all this.... the brat has no fusible links like the ea's do

well guys first off to cover the issue of the current engine, its blowing oil up the intake and out the throttle body.. i have pulled the #1 plug wire and made no difference in the way the engine ran, all the rest of the plugs when i did a similar thing stalled the engine... that is how i deduced that it was #1 cylinder blowing the oil.. and then i learned from a mechanic friend of mine that is ASE certified that it can either be an oil or compression ring causing it.. my reasoning for saying compression is because sometimes it started up really funny sounded like it didn't have compression.. Ok now to answer the second question i did have a 92 loyale wagon i picked it up for 900$ just needed a clutch and plug wires, original owner 145k on it, had leaky cam seals, bad front brakes, bad cv axle, but ran like a CHAMP 4x4 worked flawless, i was stupid for EVER getting rid of it, it was rust free, and looked brand new.. i'd do anything for a chance to have it back it was an immaculate example of a 20yo car, traded it for my old 83 GL which was grandma owned and looked new which just wasn't me it was BARF yellow and it had issues but ran great till the ignition system took a ************, so i traded it in the condition it was in for 79 brat and now i'm screwed with it because there is no ignition voltage what so ever when u turn the key on.. the coil don't energize, the gauge lights don't come on, i have really screwed up now

i am looking into the idea of getting a running ea82 or ea81 and puting it in the car and rebuilding the one that is in it so i will always have a running engine for the car cuz i don't wanna ever let it go i love the beast... when i say blown number #1 cylinder i mean it has a blown compression or oil ring

well i am quite the handyman when it comes to cars i'm not happy unless i'm dirty under the hood lol... so i'm probably going to do the ea series engine as it requires no mod's just bolt in and go LOL, plus i'm on a huge budget plus the car really ain't worth squat its beat to hell lol and i just need me a commuter car cuz the Brat needs alot of work and i don't have the time for it... just seems like everytime i fix one thing another breaks on it so just gonna fix the old dependable loyale :-D

ok i did homework on the EJ18 and can't figure out what the difference in the EJ18 and the EA82 really is im leaning towards the EJ18 though seems to fit my needs more, and questions have now arisen, can i use the same computer and wiring harness for the EJ that is used on the original EA? what accommodations have to be made to the trans and mounts to accommodate the EJ

ok i have done homework and the EJ's are pulling a hefty price, i am on a budget of mass proportions..

hey guys time to revive the idea list for my 93 loyale sedan, with the blown #1 cylinder. i am trying to compile ideas as to what engine i should run in it.. i want MPG's as its going to be a commuter/travel car and i can't afford a gas hog.. i honestly thought about just sticking with the original 1.8ltr OHC as i can get 35+ out of it but i'd settle for 30 or so.. so here it goes, i'm open to ideas as to what engine to run in it, its all factory original right now.

Ok guys i got numbers off of the box not sure if this helps but here they are, 429602000 and E12-58 what exactly is this and what does it control?? Help me please i want my Brat to live again:headbang:

where do i check the voltage at?? i've noted that there is a negative and a positive wire going from the transistor ign thingy to the coil, then there was a ground to the frame, and 1 or 2 wires going into the main trunk line into the car.

well guys got a problem with the brat i think i located the problem.. can the transistor ignition module next to the coil cause the coil not to get power and the idiot lights on the cluster not to light up when i start the car?? it cranks, and got fuel pump, just no fire and dashlights.. i checked the the fuses under dash and its none of those that i know.. i need help its not running!!!

I'll tell you guys i've got a possesed car, things work when ever they want and its WIERD 4th gear works when it wants to the front driver marker light works when ever it wants, winshileld washer pumps fluid when it wants. its the car of many mysterys it really is

also question for the masses, i have a severe front wobble/shimmy not sure noise sounds like the front passenger wheel is coming off, any ideas? Question of the day, "how does water get in a sealed transmission?"

how bout kick panels the last 2 pics i posted anyone have those, color doesnt matter i can paint em
