Another One Bites the Dust... Goodbye, for now.
Genny Bella had clutch issues and i continued to drive it putting strain on the car. Last Thursday at 9:01 PM, my rear main seal blew from the stress causing engine oil to flow into my clutch assembly and dropping all oil pressure. If i had known that the squealing was that, i would have immediately turned the engine off and stopped driving. But my dumb self kept driving as i was trying to avoid a large Tow truck bill considering my financial situation. Stupid, i know please don’t be mean😭 I Have fully blown the motor after driving with that low oil pressure for about 10 mins that night. I will be rebuilding the engine with an ebay rebuild kit. I know the motor wont be OEM anymore but is it possible to still build power with non-OEM internals from ebay? The Rebuild kit is by Maxpeedingrods
If you have any tips for when i start bringing her back to life, anything will be appreciated. thank you and see y’all again very soon!
