So I picked up a 1991 FWD Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-turbo with a what I thought at the time was told to have a bad head (low compression in #2) for $650. I figure for $650 I could just drop in a spare head I had laying around and get a fun winter car out of it. But that shortly back fired on me.
After taking the timing belt cover off I noticed a snapped belt was just chilling there. It turned out to be the balance shaft belt :S. I'm thinking oh man it's probably got bent valves and such now but shortly after taking the head off and inspecting it the valves were fine. To my surprise the real issue was the #2 piston. Its now missing a small chunk out of the piston.

So now I'm stuck in a dilemma on what I want to do with the car. Replace the #2 piston or have them all replaced and get it running and sell it or just keep it. Man what's a guy to do, stupid DSMs. Can never have it easy with them :S lol.

Ah yes besides this I still have to install a new clutch into my '99 eclipse spyder gs-t :S.
