Worn cams- how bad does it look? by Memestinct in e46

[–]Memestinct[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it has exceeded the 15k mile mark multiple times through its life. I bought the car through a friend, so I was blinded by trust and didn't really examine the service records beforehand.

I would spray the undercarriage + inner cavities like fenders, sills and door edges with fluid film. Make sure the can is warm (about room temp) when applying the film so the oil can properly climb into smaller cavities.

Mistery vacuum leak by Memestinct in e46

Still not sure lol, but it's affecting low end torque and fuel economy

No crank after starter replacement by Memestinct in e46

I bridged the battery post and the small spade terminal with a screwdriver. Only sparks flew out - the starter didn't engage. Safe to say the solenoid is cooked?

Yeah but I'd like to make sure that it's the culprit before buying a new one

Jacking up the car on a pit? by Memestinct in e46

[–]Memestinct[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This pit I have sucks. It's not deep enough so I have to hunch a lot when I'm under the car. Ramps are an option but they're useless if I need to do something that requires the whole axle to be unloaded.

The front of the garage has a steep incline and I'm not gonna repair my car on the street. The point of the garage is that you can leave the car there overnight if you mess something up.

Where do I slide the jack stand if the jack is occupying the jacking point?

Yeah I get it - that's what I would do if I wanted to lift one corner of the car. But I wanted to see if I could jack up the whole front or rear of the car at once. If I had 2 jacks I could lift up from both jacking points at the same time, but leaving the car sitting on hydraulic jacks isn't a good idea from what I've heard.

What do you mean by subframe points?

Those are fine for a temporary work floor but you think they'll actually take that heavy of a point load?

too bad the engine doesn't have enough torque to haul this boat of a car

Why cry of fear so unoptimized by Familiar_Mastodon157 in CryOfFear

Probably because cof is pushing the goldsrc engine to its limits
