big probs
Ok, I have some big probs with my car. It pours out raw gas through the exhaust system and runs horrible. Now there is oil coming out of the timing chain cover with metal particles in it. What the hell is up with my car???

well one or more of the cylinders isnt firing, that is why you're getting raw gas and bad running. as for the oil and metal... head gasket? maybe some valvetrain stuff or a piston ring. you're going to have to take it apart to find out.
and I wouldnt run it much with it pouring gas out the exhaust, if it were to backfire it would blow the underside of the car through the roof, not to mention incinerate anything behind the car or near the sides... would look cool as hell, but wouldnt be so good in the end.

Well, one cylinder definately is not firing. The oil is coming from the underside of the engine. I started it up, and it rattled to no end and just stalled. I am suspecting the bearings to be shot and a whole bunch of other crap messed up. I think I am either gonna get rid of the 240 and get a new one or get an SR
