He's not sure right now...no compression in 3 of 4 cylinders, sounds like the motor is dead now. Funny thing is he went back to stock and was on all stock components...one theory is a piece of the wheel may have gotten into the motor after the failure.

Yeah, I exchanged a couple PMs with him on EvoXforums. This is the same guy that swapped turbos 5 or 6 times (outdoors), in front of his townhome. He's industrious but I don't know if he's competent.

Jake's Evo couldn't help but come to mind when I thought of his situation, drill bit in the motor, lol. Hopefully it was something like that and not the turbo.

Crazy!

I picked up a clip with a lock as well. It's a little longer than I'd like but I hope it works. I'm going to run to scheides' tonight since getting the arm back in place with compressed air would be a lot easier than strongarming it.
