So I just took back in 2001 Diablo 6.0SE car #34, in the Brown color, 41K miles, wing, no accidents, newer tires, overall good codition..BUT>> The previous owner had a mis-hap that caused the car to ingest water into BOTH side motor air vents, a reading of the computer print out, showed an "Over rev" at about the same time. Of course the car does not run. We did a compression check and found all readings from plain old ZERO to as high as 59 in one cylinder..so leads to believe there is a bent valve or all of them, spun timing chain...any other possabiltys you guys can think of?? I have a clean and clear title out of Montana for it. I am thinking just sell it as is, maybe a do it yourslef mechanic wants it, some one that can work on their own car..so what do you think it's worth..and anyone with a reasonable offer..contact me, let's see what we can do with it. Car is currently sitting in San Jose area of California. Roy [email protected]
Sounds like valve train damage and at least the heads have to come off. Might get lucky with the bottom end being fine. I'd have to say a prospective buyer would have to assume a major engine overhaul is required including new pistons, valves and maybe more. I'd say don't turn the engine over any more
What kind of mishap? Sounds like someone drove it off a pier. I apologize I am not trying to be a smart azz, I just don't see how this can happen.
Why? It has been sold! But if you must , it looks likes every Other 2001 Lamborghini Diablo 6.0SE in Brown, tons Of pics all over the place
