so my brother recently acquired a new talon. when he got it the car had a slight miss I thought ok I should be able to take care of it. picked her up got it home. checked out the plugs 3 were ok. 1 had the tip completely blown off. I thought wow this is prlly the problem. threw in some bpr6es and away she went smooth as can be.
now the problem, no more than 36 hrs later car comes back 3 tips GONE 1 tip smashed to zero gap. car barely runs and does not like boost at all. only known problems with the car is an exhaust leak. I saw what look like some signs of a bad head but have not narrowed it down yet. I'm wondering if this is something any of you guys have seen before and had any solutions. I'm also wondering if anyone has a logger I can borrow to throw on the car and see what comes up on it. |

its sold to Rob now it was a 90 AWD. What it turned out to be was that headgasket blew and it bent a valve or piston was toast. Compression on the #2 cylinder = goose egg.
