  • playing with the nitrous idea on my 119xxx 3.4

    just playing with the idea. my main concern is the condition of my motor. It doent leak oil (at least not when i use 20/50) but it dose leak power steering (not shure if nitrous effects that too much) but more inportantly, i have to use stop leak to keep my coolant from leaking out of my timeing chain cover. i would do a compression test, but i would probably want to replace the head gasket regardless right? and my car dose run a little warm like a typical chevy, and it has a bit of a "burning" smell comeing from the motor at times. whats your guys opinion?

    I would not run nitrous on your car until you get those loose ends tied up. Nitrous will find your weak links in the engine if you have areas that need attention. I am against nitrous on your car.

        So you think I should pull the motor and replace all the gaskets if I were to spray?

          you don't need to pull the motor to replace gaskets. But yes you should freshen it up before putting nitrous on it

            Cool. Pulling it seems like it would be 10 times eazer to get the heads and timeing chain cover off, but I guess it would end up being more work to pull the whole motor right?

              And I think the oil leaks from someware (not shure whare) when I'm useing 1030. But with thick oil it's fine. Should I worrie about that? I think I would do a new fuel pump and bigger injectors (if I do dry) and better plugs regardliss. And before I would evin think about getting spray I would get mega squirt hooked up. Plus exaust and intake.

                  stop thinking of nitrous right now and fix your car. Then start looking into it. Sorry to be negative about you putting nitrous on your car, just trying to look out for you and your car.

                    Yah I know my motor would need some work before I could spray, but I was thinking hypotheticly.
