My story starts out when I bought my 240sx 4 months ago at Feng Auto in

Chicago. I paid 2600$ for it drove it for 2 months then I started

experiencing problems with rattling inside the engine until it blew on me. I

now bough a new motor from Touge Factory in Northbrook, swapped it,

started it and its rattling the same way as my old motor. Now to the point I

dont want to ruin this engine, and I belive it is fixable, Is there anyone in

this FORUM that is located in Chicago, and would be able to help me out or

give me advice what to fix on this car, I have been patient for 3 weeks, but

now when I start the engine with all that work I put in swapping and plugging everything back together it makes me sick. I still dont have a job,

trying to get hired, but at the moment does not seem to be working out. I

have my last 150$, and I really want to make this car work without having

to swap this motor for the second time. I really dont want to trash this

240, or see it in the junkyard, but if I dont get this beast running again or

soon I will be forced to sell it due to the fact my dad is selling this house

and will have no place to work on it

If someone out there would be able to stop by my garage, and take a look and possibly help me out fixing it, would be really appreciated of meYou can reach me at 773-205-1595 or please feel free to email me at [email protected] AIM- Dj2kewl4upl. I can offer my last 150$ to someone if you want to take money other than that thank you for looking at my post

By the way my name is Damian

Get Touge Factory to see what's wrong. I'm sure by "new" you mean "new to you". Can I ask how much you paid for said motor?

He's getting it fixed, he had a mechanic look at it and the guy said he threw a rod.
