Well, my car ran great, until today. Went to the grocery store, no problem. When it was time to leave, I started my car and it ran for about 5 seconds, sputtered and died. Now when I try to start the car, there is a loud rattling coming from the motor. Like I said, there were no problems before now. It made a rattling before the car stopped running. I think my timing chain broke.  Any thoughts?

OK,got the car to start up, so the chain isn't broken. But it doesn't want to stay running and there is still wierd noises... Hmmm maybe it jumped a tooth or two... Whatever it is, the car starts but is no where near drivable...

So yeah, my car keeps acting funny so I pulled the spark plugs out and am checking gap clearance and also cleaning the plug wires... I pulled the dizzy cap off and noticed something... The little metal circle in the middle of the underside of the cap is gone, causing the rotor to have a very hard time with getting juice to send through the wires... At least that is my theory. I AM missing the little metal circle, so my question is, would this missing piece be the cause of all my problems??? Its seems reasonable. The rotor has a connector piece that touches the cap. The connector touches the little metal circle, which i am missing, and thats where the juice comes from. Without this metal circle, the electricity is arching from the little amount of metal to the rotor. Am I right? I do need to buy a new cap now, i assume

IDK?So yeah. Come to find out, the "rod knock" is actually not rod knock, but a sound that only appears when you let off the clutch. Hmm??? And now I just need #3 and #4 plug wires in order to drive again... Hopefully

Yup. Put the knock sensor back on and put some gas in and RAN like a champ... But then, the ish started boggin and wouldn't run. So "pimpgixxer04" gave me a ride to the auto store to get some MAF cleaner and some gas... and BAM! Runs like a champ. I am so happy to have my car back, it feels great... As for the pix... I promise they are coming, just been busy trying to get my car to run right. Oh and i traded pimpgixxer his seats for mine, so I have black/blue "leather" seats front and back now... Check out his thread for pictures...

hhaha... good call on ILove's car... but he hasnt made a build thread either...
his car is stock as cock... but has q45 brakes... and is mad fresh except for the autotragic and bigass dent in the side... but he maintains it well... we just put all new ignition parts in (sparks, wires, distro, cap, etc), new filters all around, regrounded her... its got some nice potential... and NO rust...
but i see his point about this thread. its more of an intro as to what 90% of newbs to nico do.... along the lines of no performance parts, no real direction/goalset totally defined, just picking up lil cosmetic parts here and there... its just a "hey, i got this gadget/painted this part" thread... and a "hey, one day im gonna turbo... " mindset... but the underside of the car is literally crumbling.... believe me, that **** doesnt just go away... i spent countless hours under my car with a grinder/wirewheel... you have a long way to go my friend... id start on that asap start building dude... give us some substantial stuff...
