2003 Corolla T Sport.
Car has been sorn for a year+ due to engine problems.
100,000 miles
Immaculate interior just need a clean.
Exterior is great apart from the roof there are a few patches of paint that have faded and could do with being touched up.
Standard T Sport Alloys in good condition.
Corolla is completely standard apart from a 3" Cherry bomb exhaust that I had fitted myself.
One night the engine blew a spark plug and had to be recovered, I had work done on it costing quite a lot to fix, it had a helicoil put in to hold in the new spark plug, new set of leads and plugs and various bits. It was running ok but the lift would not engage and it wasent happy the few times i tried to make it.
I drove it for 2 weeks after without boost and it gave up on Me again, helicoil seemed be unharmed but the plug had heated up something silly, So I took the car off the road to investigate
Engine has been compression tested and cylinder no 1,3 and 4 are running at 220 while cylinder no 2 is at 110
Car has been driven round a field a few times sinse last year and runs ok bar the lift won't engage, I haven't checked them but i know about the lift bolts going.. but I question the dodgy cylinder?
There's obviously other problems past the helicoil staying in and the lift, someone who has a better knowledge of these engines than me can hopefully fix it, I've moved on to another car and just don't have the time or money to fix it anymore
Also last week the dash lights went off and it's stopped sparking, not really sure why as it's usually started up fine.
Any questions ask away, Cheers
