Stupid mech here screwed up my engine. He mis plug the vacumm hose and water hose while doing a top overhaul sob sob.....
All this happen on that faithful day.....
When I arrive at his workshop, he still proudly said that no matter how much water he pour into my radiator, it won't get filled and continue pouring the water into my radiator with my engine on.
I quickly turn off the ignition and ask him how long have he been running my engine and he told me around an hour.
I was like wtf....
After remedy the wrong pluged piping, I'm so pissed until I drove off without paying that stupid mech a single cent. My car was blowing out heeps of white smoke and smoke out the whole expressway while on the way home. Finally half way thru the journey the engine died.
In the end I towed my car all the way up from Singapore to Malaysia to get it fix. When the header was dismentled to my horror... sigh picture will tell the whole story.
I'm so sad, drop in this engine only for 7 months with only 78k km on the clock and there it is RIP......

Sorry to hear this man.

Make sure to take it to a mechanic you can trust (and knows the 4EFTE motor) and not a mickey mouse next time.

Hope all goes well with the 5E build.

Peace
