RE: oil question. front suspension question I have a failing cam also, but I am going to do this repair with long term success in mind. Cost more now, but worth it. Here is where it started for me http://rawze.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=43 Will cost 7-9k in parts alone depending on how the other cam is when we pull the head off and cams out. Replace head and at least the Valve Cam and damaged rockers Add pre-oiler pump so there never should be a dry start again Add Bypass Oil Filter to keep soot level low While I drive it damaged saving $ for repair, I am keeping the engine RPM's low when I keep boost low = going slower Get out of gear as much as possible Fix it asap. Imagine 1300rpm is 1300 times a minute that damaged cam is scraping the rocker roller ready to throw steel daggers at your bearings. I had thought about putting Neodymium Magnets near the damaged cam lobe so it could magnetically catch the flying steel shrapnel, but it might move and cause way more damage, so I am just driving it slowly and NO idling(but dont accelerate hard on a cold engine, you could spin a bearing) | |||
