engine problem
my car is stock (swiss zenki) and ran 250.000 km. in the last week she had some problems starting, like if one piston was sleeping but after that it worked fine. Finally, today I was in the highway and around 3000rpm I hear a sound tac tac tac tac tac coming from the top of the engine, sound got quickly louder and louder...and then I noticed the car won't accelerate...temperature gauge was ok though so I stop it, check the engine, it was actually quite hot as the liquid in the reservoir was boiling and spitting out for like 5 mins! maybe temp gauge is gone... anyway the only thing I could do on the side of the highway was checking the spark plugs and one of them was very dirty of oil so I swapped them and tried to start the engine...it started but one piston is definitely not working so I went back home very slowly. where should I start?

Hey what's up?
Japanese hot summer is gone!
Wea Smile ther is getting nice.

Since your car ran 250000km. Too much carbon on your piston head.Then got too much compression.
If it happens, the pistons break or the valves melt.
then you can't get any compression.

At first take your head off. then you will see.

P.S. my flywheel botls fucked up and I gotta take my crankshaft off.

Its 100% that you should pull your head off...
It can be broken piston, broken valve, maybe headgasket? or so...

Cheap secondhand engine or expensive rebuild.

A wheel to steer the front of the car
A pedal to steer the rear
