Hey all,
I have a problem with my engine, i'm getting gas into my oil, so i did a leakdown test and my second cylinder is at 67%. i've got to do another test with them so they can determine what it is. The first acura service rep i had said "you're going to probably need a new engine", and the second one said "you should probably just buy a new car, they have great deals on the new 1.7 EL's". hunh? they still don't know what the problem is, and they're upselling me... i'm pissed. anyway. how big of a deal is this? if i change my oil, say, every 3500 miles and keep driving, should my car be fine? since the first diagnostic, i've driven 6000 miles and all is still fine. the only reason i'm concerned is that if i'm about to hit the scheduled timing belt replacment. If I do need a new engine, the timing belt money would be wasted. i'm just tortured over making the right move here. anyone have any experience with this sort of thing??
thanks
