1989 KA24E Rattles HELP PLS!!!!!!!!!!!!! :' (

[byonata]

I have an 89' KA24E that has a lot of problem.

One of them used to be the stalling/misfiring problem. A mechanic I met on a gas station said that my engine's flooding with fuel. The engine sometimes starts and then startled, and then stalls. (It won't start no more, like it's out of gas) So, I installed NR-G Fuel regulator, and changed the fuel filter. In order to help idle, I installed an 8mm Taylor SparkPlug wires and 0.4mm Denso SparkPlugs.

It starts good now. Just the oil pan gasket is screwed or somehow the oilpan leaks oil (sometimes). One day I drove my car with no oil. Then it rattles like hell. Like there's a lil' migdet banging my car with metal sledgehammer, and it feels like I'm riding on 20hp 240sx. (can't go more than 30mph, even when floored). The car is sitting in my garage waiting for angels like you to help me figure out what to do.

Is this fixable? Or do I have to change the engine? Pls help me.What is EXACTLY wrong with it???!

probobly has rod knock from driving it without oil. you can either rebuild the engine, or replace it.

Yeah you gotta have bad bearings since you drove sans oil.....
