Like a penis? Yeah now that you mention it...

For the idle problem, is it AFM and has it been tampered with? If so that might be the cause. Other wise you can try cleaning it.

Check your plugs for a start, its not running on all 4.

Edit: Wait a minute, I just read your last thread...take it to a mechanic, theres something not right there. Does it use coolant?

What is the oil level in the s/c like? It doesnt hold much so generally if a seal goes the s/c goes pffft

Its not like a turbo with a constant oil feed.

You say there is a leak in the radiator, can you see the leak? How often do you have to top it up

my guess is you have cooked it

Also
That squeal sounds nasty, like a failed s/c clutch or tensioner bearing

i will check the oil in supercharger tomorrow..
radiator its just driping a little bit from the bottom plug, put when i start in up somthing leaks behind the engine i think its the water pump. i always have water in the reserve tank.
the squeal sound is from the power steering pump it locks up at times. going to replace it soon.

Having water in the reserve tank does not mean your radiator is always full. Actually check the radiator, you seem to have a few nasty problems that all point towards rooted engine.

Sorry bro but find a good mechanic you trust and open your wallet

I shall update this tomorrow.
Roughly how much would be for parts to rebuilt the head including gaskits and piston rings?
If it was supercharger seal would it blow white smoke?
Will it still be boosting. Its boosting 8psi now.

If it was the supercharger seal it would have killed the charger very quickly. They are a sealed unit and don't hold much more than a teaspoon of oil. If it's still boosting then it won't be the charger. You will be looking at 1k at least to rebuild and that's if the labour is mates rates. My cousin is a engine builder and he does a lot of 4a's for mates at around this price depending on parts and machine work. Make sure you get it checked by a actual engine builder not a general mechanic. A lot of, general mechanics will put it in the too hard basket and send it to a engine builder anyway and charge you 20% markup. A engine builder should be able to give you a definate diagnosis too.

I took it to mechanic they said just replace the engine.
From the guy i bought it from said it has a stuck vavlve.
Well i searched on the net right now.
The cars intercooler piping has oil inside it.
The car has rough idle.
It stalls sometimes.
And yes it blows blue smoke like alot of it.
Smells like its running rich.

It could b a pcv valve. Its got all the symptoms of it.

Could anyone tell me where this pcc valve is located on a 4agze engine. And where i could gt it from.
