Okay i thought my CA was blown but now im having second thoughts. When i start it and it idles and sounds like its only running off of 1 cylinder. When i hear knocking it doesnt seem like the motor is blown it just sounds like its trying so hard to work off that one cylinder. i also heard a phrase called "piston slapping" which makes the same noise. I tried driving it but only got about 30 feet until it stalled but i heard it spool. I started it up about 2 min later and for about 30 seconds it was idleing fine off of all 4 cylinders with no knocking! Im thinking maybe a boost leak or a bad ignitor??? But this guy who did my swap was convinced that it was blown. Im thinking maybe he didnt want to figure out what was exactly wrong with it so he just told me it was blown. I really need help with this because id hate to get rid of it if its just something simple.
