hey guys, wanted to get some input on this. went to have my car tuned with a KB 2.6, and unfortunately had to drop it off due to time constraints. when i picked it up that night and drove it home at night i could see a trail of smoke behind me so bad i almost passed out.
what do you think would cause all of the discoloration on piston #8 like this? and all the pitting/chipping like that? now, the car was going through about a quart of oil in 10 mins of idling, so that's what all the caked on build up is...obviously the tuner did something insanely wrong, but what exactly? they already knew about the smoke issue the next day, so i'm going there tomorrow to get some money out of them as this is an MMR 900 motor with about 2500 miles on it :nonono:
here's what the head looks like on #8
and as a suprise, #6 had a broken piece and broken ring as well. i'm pretty sure the pits on this one are from the piece bouncing around. there was a point where it made a horrible rattling noise on the way home from this tuning nightmare(i was babying it as it was already smoking and going through oil), now i guess i know what it was...
