Nissan Repair: smoking, nissan maxima, barrings


Question
my nephew poured Transmision Fluid in the oil fill, and I adjusted the vaccumm flow, when I started the car it was bluish/grayish smoke everywhere, the engine is also making noise from where I adjusted the vaccum flow. I adjusted the vaccum flow, because I just installed the engine,and I was trying to get it idled right. What should I do? It's a 1988 Nissan Maxima


Answer
This is also something else I found out.

You could drain the system (oil) then FLUSH it with DIESAL FUEL.  Then put new OIL in it.  Then start it.  and see if you have the wierd noise still.  Also see if it is still smoking.  This is about all I could think of besides the new motor.

GOOD LUCK pal,
 PS> it sounds like you might have ruined the barrings.  Based on your decription and some details that you gave.





Walter,

It sounds like he just really did extensive damage to the motor.  Your best bet is to just replace the entire engine. (I'm sorry).  I can't tell you how extensive the damage is, unless I could hear the engine itself.   If this had been done without starting the engine, you could have just drained and flushed it out.  But unfortunately, this wasn't the story.  

But with Bluish/grayish smoke that is NOT a GOOD sign (as you know) but I will not go into details for I gotta be there to hear and see exactly what is going on.

SO SO SO Sorry, this happened.
