This is mostly what I meant.

Most car guys say just pop the hood or get under the bumper as in get your *** in the bay and look.

I don't mean just take the bumper off I mean get on your back and find it lol

well little did i know, this car has 2 belts. so i just looked at the main serpentine belt and saw it was good. but thanks for being an ***. I thanked everyone in the thread for their input and obviously it did help. Most people said a thrown rod or some **** and it wasn't even close so. I was just looking for hopeful advice. Not a smartass remark.

Well I look at it this way, if it happens to another dumbass like me, maybe their first step will be to check their belt and not look so stupid like I did. I'm just here to help others like you guys attempted to help me. And I blew the doors off a GTO this morning so #go350z

Probably not.


They all just hear or see something then make another thread like this one and ask us to fix it. Rather than do a basic inspection.


Another dumb a$$ will be along with a whole new thread.

I'm reminded of a couple of weeks ago, when I was working a corner at the local autocross. Had two young guys working the corner with me. Every time someone hit a cone, one of them would say something like, "what a dumbass", or, "this idiot".

Just saying.

Pretty sure he is saying your a punk ***** that picks up cones that other people knock down, then complain about it.

Tell us more about this GTO race that didn't happen.

Does the club you autocrossed with post the results online? How many cones did those guys hit/how crappy were their times?

Yes, times are posted. It's the Las Vegas Region SCCA. I don't know their names, so no idea of their times. Doesn't really matter. Point is... No mater how good you are, there's always someone better, so usually a good idea to limit s**t talking in mixed company.

Not as stupid as I seemed before. Actually turned out to be more than the torn belt. That just happened before I got to the dealership. Turns out my push rod and flywheel were loose as hell and the clutch ended up burning up a few days later due to improper installation from the last owner. But old thread is old
