About 4 weeks ago i found out that my brother has been driving his Sr with about a half a quart of oil. The head sounded like it was starving of oil. I told him to expect the worst. I pulled the VC (cam lobes were fine)and changed what oil he had in the car (no metal shavings). After that it seemed to run fine.
Now fast forward to today. I go to take out the car since my brother is at school and it sits during the week. I try and take it for a spin on the weekends. It did not want to start at all. Then when i finally got it to turn over it stayed at 400rpm for like 10 seconds, it sounded like its going to stall. Then it popped up to 1200 like normal while warming up. So i turn if off and check for codes. Got 55 and started it back up. This time it starts like nothing is wrong. I take it for a spin, in first gear, from idle to 3k, the car had no power what so ever. It did that through all the gears, but at upper rpms it seemed fine.
I am stumped, i going out to pull the vc, check the plugs, turbo, grounds..any other ideass?
