So first, its a 93 1.3 5 spd fuel injected festiva.
BEFORE WE BEGIN, EVERYONE KNOWS YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID SO please lets just stick to helping me fix the cars problem cuz theres no fixing the stupidity i brought to the table that day.
So i'm hauling butt home so the wife would quit chewing me out. I was dropping from 50mph to 35mph by using the clutch and dropping gears. my driveway came up so at 35 i put it in 1st gear and dumped the clutch, wich of course as anyone who's blown and engine before could tell you, i heard a quick rev, pop, then it died so I let it coast in cuz i knew i screwed up bad. when i got to my garage, I tried to start it. it turned over like this, rrr,pop,pop, rrr,pop, rr,pop, pop, rrr, pop, rr, pop, pop rr. but if i floored the pedal then let up then floored then let up it would run obviously still popping and such. then I went to turn it over again and belt the battery was dead. once I replaced the battery and removed the top timing cover to see if I skipped a tooth or two on the timing belt. the belt felt very snug and from what i could see everything seems ok but rrr, pop, pop rr, pop rrr, pop, pop,etc... there is NO oil leaking into the radiator NOR is there any antifreeze leaking into the oil. so could i have possibley revved to high and screwed up the afm? or could i have broken the cam? maybe destroyed distributor , or possibly burnt a valve? blew a head gasket? would checking the trouble codes help me at this point or should i just start tearing it down? I came in the house hung up the keys then internally bawled myself to sleep and i haven't done anything but look down the timing belt area and checked the oil and antifreeze. Please, I want my car back cuz riding the old lady to work everyday is really sucking. it costs me breakfast and a damn redbull everydamn day now please tell me what to do next before i go i go to broke from redbulls to fix my festy.
