drewb53 Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 So yesterday i am driving home from school, going down our main street when my car shuts off. Cant get it started again and when it would there was a lud ping, so i let it sit until i could get to it ended up not starting anymore, and had to get i towed to our local mechanic. Now today we find out that th crankshaft snapped in 2. So now when i get home from chicago at the end of this weekend i get to pull all my equipment out for the fact of probabily not getting the car fixed due to costing more than the car is worth (96). Kinda sucks, but what do you do.. What really sucks is that i just got my new box in less than a month ago, and now i dont have a car. Just felt like ranting. Because i dont have the money for a new car or to fix my problem with my one now. this is all Quote 2003 Chevy Blazerkenwood headunit4 ga. kicker wiringAQ1200D amp2 12" DC LVL 3'sStinger Volt MeterMy Build LogBlazer is no longer.

ugpbmx Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 it shouldn't be to much to fix. just a crank and new bearings, if nothing got messed up when it split.

speeddemon0308 Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 i doubt the crank snapped. did it make any strange noises when it happend? its real hard to snap a crank. especially on a bone stock engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ugpbmx Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 unless one of the bearings burnt up, and the crankshaft became unbalanced it could have snapped or at least warped.

Skullz Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 GM's are pretty cheap to repair and really easy to find any part you need. You should be able to find a used motor for 100 bux somewhere that'll run fine.
