Please read this all the way through before posting please thank you!!
STORY: Bought my 95 Acura Integra from a school auction website the Integra had 69,000 miles on it and wasnt currently running at the time but with a new battery and prayers we got it running long enough to get on the tow truck.
THE CLIMAX: I took the car to my fathers mechanics and they said I had cylinders 3 and 4 were dead. My car needed a valve job and because the head was warped and it was going to cost 1,500 to fix it all. I payed the 1,500. I get the car back and the car is running!!!! I WAS SO HAPPY, but 2 months later my car is acting up.
I take car back to the same mechanics and they say that CYLINDER 3 IS DEAD AGAIN!!!! AND THAT "It turns out its not the head and its block that's the problem". And they wanted to fix the car again IF I PAYED THEM!!!!
Guys I really do love this car and I am keeping her. I just dont know why this keeps happening I payed alot of money and got screwed. I need advice on how to fix this problem! This is a dream car thats turning out to be a nightmare because of the choices I made. PLEASE LEAD ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION!!
Why do I keep having dead cylinders?
Do i buy new block?
Get new engine?
Rebuild kit?
Give my car to shop?
I have literally been stressing out and I love my car way to much I'm not letting her go because I made some bad choices I just need to fix these last few things please help guys.
