This is not to make fun of others work, but to show that cheap is not as sweet as is seems.
You will see some stuff here that will make you laugh , cry and sometimes throw up....
Enjoy.

Be careful.

This was a car that came in for a "Over heating " problem. The car was borrowed by a friends for a nice easy drive around. The friends brought it back and said it seems to be over heating, Thanks it's the gasket.
We could tell it was more than "Overheated" but lets pull it apart anyway.
We first take the valve cover off...
This doesn't look good, Retainers are supossed to be in one piece.....

Take the head off.....
The head shouldn't look like this either, This thing must have got super hot.......The gasket is blown..

There's is something not quite right here either, This looks more than over heated..Could the friend be holding out on the truth....No ?

Ok,,,That's why it ran so bad, there's only 3 pistons. The other must of over heated and turned to mini pistons and exited through the header.(If you can't take the heat, get out of the cylinder)
