So down went the right foot. Felt the car sort of started to serge, so I backed off and got into her again. All I heard was a bang. Pulled up to the side. Still had oil pressure, not blownany smoke. Initial thought was valve spring, seat, etc. So off went the valve cover. Couldnt find anything!!!!!!!Must be in the bottom end. Anyone ever had a prob like this or heard of anything similar?????03 XRT - 270 rwkwtunevalve springinjectorscoolercatstage 2 auto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it a backfire bang? A metallic bang? Does it still run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
