quad 4

What do you really need to know? QUAD 4 simply means a 4 valve per cylinder 4 cylinder engine Oldsmobile produced, and GM put in various cars from 88~94. A few facts: the QUAD4 was produced from 88~94. While a lot will still refer to the engine that replaced it as a QUAD4, it is not. It became the "Twin Cam". While I can't get into GM's Engineer's heads on the why, the fact you can not bolt a 95 right in where anything from 88~94 was is probably the main reason. Having said that, the basic engine was very much the same from 88~2002, which is why most people will refer to the any 2.3L or 2.4L in those years as a QUAD4. Why does it matter? Well the fact is when Olds (all the engines are Oldsmobile motors byt the way, regardless of the make its in) first made the motor, which was prior to the production model in 1988, they were making 750HP with a 2.2L version of it. (An Andretti drove the indy car it powered to more than 226mph laps at Indianapolis.) So, for most of us what do we care? We care that we can get v8 power from a 4 cylinder with 4cyl economy when we can keep our foot out of it. So, why does it get bashed all the time. Well like anything else there were some growing pains which did include some engine failures. More or less those problems have been resolved. Even in the older configurations the most significant issues have readily available fixes. So, what should I look for? In a perfect world you would want a post 94 block mated to a pre 94 HO head. You would get the best power with the newer fixes and a smoother running motor. In reality, if you want reliable economy, look for a 96 or later twin cam version. (some people will refer to the single cam as a QUAD4. well clearly it is not as it only has 2 valves/cyl) If you want serious out of the box OEM power grab an early 90's HO. It has to ba a VIN A motor (8th digit), and ALL of them will say HO right on the engine cover. It doesn't guarantee anything 100%, but it will have that cover if it hasn't been changed. So, what should I stay away from? Avoid the early single cam motors like the plague. These engines are where most of the bashing comes from, even thought they aren't a QUAD4. Also avoid sticking with the original head of ANY pre 95 QUAD4. This may sound like a stupid thing to say (ya want me to buy a car and change the head?) but if you're thinking about buying a cheap car that happens to be in good shape, why not spend $300 and take 90% of your worries out in an afternoon. A person with SOME mechanical ability, the right tools (nothing fancy or expensive) and an off the shelf guide from a parts store can do this job in about 4~6 hours depending on the person and work area.

I got mugged A man mugged me and then said I had da big gaye

Livi Oct 22

Caring about humanity Those are some pretty bold claims about a mug God. Given your conviction though and the importance second chances (my understanding is that blaspheme can only be committed against God and not a man...don't conflate the two), I'm thinking I'd like to buy one. It's nice to think a pretty simple mug can save a little humanity. I'm just wondering though...if you've ordered lots of mugs (and I reckon you might of) and you've only just seen this one mug...how do you know its going to be a mug that can replace the holy grail? Maybe the mug is really just a simple mug looking for somebody to use it.

Response to God Oct 12

the only reason why i care about humanity this mug is the reason why i believe humanity deserves a second chance, even after they blaspheme my name. this mug is the greatest thing i've ever seen and i have ordered many of them. this mug replaces the holy grail. the bible should've told about the wonderful deeds of the mug and how it saved humanity from my wrath. alas, whilst the laws keep me from tampering with human minds and altering holy objects like the bible, i can only pass on my message: "spread the news and buy this mug!"

Deathless but probably comatose verse This cup is a beautiful mug From which I am happy to chug while engaging in jomo (the obverse of fomo), and pulling the ol' cyber plug.

It understands me. this mug has treated me better than any girl i've ever dated, and every bro i've chilled in the same bed with. we've been though thick and thin, but mostly thicc. i used to be depressed, but now this mug holds my existential fears so i dont need to carry them with me. i even wrote a song about my mug: mary had a little mug, e-i-e-i-o how i wonder what you are, floppy dongs near and far, cherri had a real thicc mug, e-i-e-i-despaci-to

it was frickin good mug i liked it it was good I have never thought of myself as someone who drinks from mugs. After I drank from this mug, I thought of myself as a mug-drinker. It was magical. My entire life changed. I didn't know what to do with myself anymore. How do you follow up a lifestyle change? I went on a long walk. About 67 miles. Once I got to the Walgreen's I realized I could've just drove. But I didn't. I'm no quitter. Not with this mug. This mug gives me power, perseverance. You want this mug. Trust me. You want this mug.
