lol will you are gonna have to come over, and i'll provide the beer and we're gonna have a block tear down party. lol. j/k

but, i dont want my #4 cylinder failing! my car is out of warranty in 10,000 miles.... the first time i changed my oil it wasn't even registering on the dipstick, so i'm kinda freaked now. i bought the car used and didn't check the oil before my first change. that also reminds me, i need to check my car and see if it ever had the spark plug thing done. i think my number S2000 falls into that recall. MY2002, S2k #6315



oh yeah, also will, if i get an aftermarket exhaust or header, got anyplace you could help me with the install? i'd rather not have the dealership charge me for something I can do myself.

Here's a twist...#4 had higher compression, probably from the excess oil on the compression rings....

What I found is that other than the knocking noise in #4 the car ran fine. My compression was not affected at all by the scoring. I guess that the friction between the piston and cylinder wall was why it was so loud.

Well, right now my mechanic is putting in a new short block. The car is a 2003, so I know it is not in the range for the banjo bolts, my mechanic was just interested.

Now here is the wierd thing... At this point he thinks that either the piston or the cylinder has gone "oval". Anyone ever know of this happening?

Not so weird. This is not uncommon with little 4 bangers. It results in piston "slap" - a condition that generally gets better once the piston heats up and oil start to lubricate. However, a severely "out of round" piston is not a good thing.

Engine #1025386 and above in MY2002, has the new style banjo bolts. Anything slows2k says you can take straight to the bank, don't fear I just finished taking the pan off #1023992, and #4 cyl is scored to hell....
Can anyone share where to locate the engine number, please. Thanks in advance.

It's listed on the deck of the block, by #1 cylinder, at the intake manifold side. It's also on a sticker on the timing chain case.
