3T Pistons Tue, 16 July 2002 04:06 Go to previous message
Just reading through the for sale section, and it seems like 3t's have a habit of damaging pistons (or rings?).

In what way do they tend to fail?

Is this a common problem with the 3t engine? Does the problem effect the twin cam and turbo models too? Do 2Ts suffer similar problems?

The TA22 I just bought came with a 3t, which has low compression on one cylinder, which might indicate the piston or rings are damaged. Sounds like forged pistons would be almost as expensive as a new engine.
