How did a dead battery help wreck your motor?

How did a dead battery help wreck your motor?

That's exactly what I'm wondering........

As for the part....Try the "HELP section" at the local auto parts.

alternator not working from a bad connection is what i should have said. Driving around the car started getting a lot of knock and i couldnt figure it out so i limped to my mechanics house then my crank snapped in 3 places knocking a hunk out of my block trashing it. After tearing it apart it looks like the previous owner did a lot of things wrong, (i bought the car with 35oo miles on a rebuild), including using a non turbo crank.

That was just the last KR i got from a long line of problems and troubleshooting and it happened to be due to a loose dash connection. My car has been down over a year now and it burns me up to no end.

Try Caspers? If you don't see it listed try calling.

I have a feeling your crank broke, starting showing knock and shortly after that you had the catastrophic failure. Based on my personal experience, when the dash light fails, you're got about 5 minutes before the battery is dead and the car cuts off. (I hate that $%^# circuit)

yea man like i siad it was a long list of issues, and to be honest the number one problem was my complete lack of understanding for these cars. I have a used field fix pending for $20. I know i could buy them new all day from summit or caspers but the whole goal of this thread was to save a $20 bill or so. Hopefully all goes well with the transaction and i appreciate all the input guys.

thanks
