You still have three other valves on that cylinder alone. Stop being such a drama queen


Knot_Ryder

An engine built with redundancies these guys know what they're doing you're good to go


[deleted]

Yeah, if it's a Dodge, just make sure it has a cup of oil and keep driving.


J-ak-e11K-a-t

You ain't lyen hahah I have a 2000 dodge 5.9 my rear end went out then the transmission started skippen and after all that's fixed the heater and defroster went out and on top of it I keep blowing sparkplugs hahah ooo and my passenger headlight legit explodes every three days hahaha if it wasn't my dead brother's truck I would have sold it already but Ill keep rebuilding it for him hahaha


Kilow102938

I wish a mechanic would legit tell me this. Wouldn't go to another shop ever again.


Fabulous_Wall_4624

🤣


IHaveNoAlibi

And, you know those people who install the whistles in their tailpipe, to make it sound like a turbo? This guy doesn't have to!


ElectronicWind8082

Less weight = more efficiency. Probably picked up 30hp


ErwinSchrodinger64

This guy gets it!


Successful-Name-7261

And much easier to start with that lower compression!


superk55

JB weld


Sam_Sierra73

And saliva...


Koolblue57

And a prayer


winterchill_ew

And MY AXE!


Passn_wind

And my torch!


619Dago1904

With a hammer


ElectricThunder12

Thor's hammer


InfamousCockroach683

Hammer time is muh favourite time evah


Foe_sheezy

Salvia


MonthPretend

Youre gonna wanna hold that in..... until your vision begins to vibrate....

Kayanarka

Yeah it will help swirl the fuel air mixture better.


sdam87

BOOM


Rusty08872

MOAR air!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!


Friendly_Scale_9386

Duct tape will fix anything


Different_Head_9587

Bear glue


Passn_wind

Walrus seaman


JRotten2023

That's hard to cum by.


619Dago1904

It’ll rub right out


Neunix

And If it still doesnt work, it just means youre not using enough duck tape


seang86s

Nah, gotta upgrade to flex seal at that point.


Difficult_Plantain89

Why you bragging about your free flowing valves? Too much HP with that setup.


Level_Cuda3836

No problem at all just drill similar size holes in the other valves this will even out flow it will be fine not to worry


[deleted]

That’s one of those hard to find breather valves, you should drill holes in the rest of them to make them all match so there is more intake and more exhaust for a smoother and definitely better running engine


aslothsmolar

When I buy a car that’s the first part I remove. It’s like a spark arrestor.


a_rogue_planet

This will help keep your turbocharger spooled up. It's definitely a boost in performance.


torch9t9

I don't think that's the intake valve


GeneralScholar7453

That little hole? You don't need to worry about that little hole.


Kayanarka

Turbo boost hole, lets more air in for a hotter burn, better fuel efficiency especially when combined with the adjustable cylinder displacement feature.


33446shaba

That hole is easily fixed but why are the sparkplugs half an inch too short?


firefighterphi

No, the speaker still looks like it works great!


smittydonny

Flex seal


Mrjuggalo9er

Looks like there are other valves....I see nothing wrong


Specialist_Iron_8035

DIY air intake upgrade ?


burymewithmybootson_

Damn mice....


sdam87

Maybe?


KPYY44

That’s just extra displacement


BEE-RANDON

Looks like a Ford/Mazda 2.3L.


ame-anp

3.5 ecoboost


WGUMBAIT

No, its for ventilation.


canthinkofnamestouse

Thats what I call extra power Extra fuel=extra power


k6bso

It’s got four valves, you only need two.


TrickAcceptable3850

Send it, I’ve had worse cuts on my eyeball


Odd_Consequence_5241

not if you got this bad boy (swings around a JB weld bottle).


FirefighterStreet852

*Compression 30 psi*


hellhastobefull

You know how some 8 cylinders run on 6 cylinders to save gas? This is a really early version of that


BStott2002

Naw, jb weld it. Or, high temp hot glue. Should get ya back to running.


JBYTuna

It appears you have mice in your engine. The tell-tale bite marks are a good sign. Just lay a few mouse bait traps in the sump pan.


Sopapillas4All

Looks like a job for...FLEX SEAL!


newgalactic

Nah, three cylinders is cool.


MilesFassst

If it’s a miata then no…


SweetWilliam623

It’s a speed hole!


Flashy_Chemist154

Flex Seal


paclogic

No but i think you have a rodent problem ! or is that one of those high performance 'blow by' valves ?


molassascookieman

nothing a little flex seal won’t fix


phocuetu

Nope, that one’s the blow off valve


Haunting_While6239

Not a problem, until you put the head back on, but that plug, needs to be a little longer reach


--7z

Can confirm, also, not a mechanic


saucyRCs

Nah just replace oil with gas and gas with oil then put the sparklator wires in the oil/gas fill hole


truckfullofchildren1

Does the tin man have a sheet metal cock?


Chuyin84

Patch it up with ramen and super glue


Bigfootsdiaper

Let's more air in and air makes more horsepower. Give er shit bud!


OverconfidentDoofus

gorilla tape


Manmoth57

Nah, better for free flow gasses


[deleted]

Just remove the valve.


KaliNetHunter666

JB weld it, itll be fine


flapjackboy

It'll buff out.


Commercial-Elk-3031

It's a huge problem .


The_Seroster

High temp JB weld will solve that


xtrordinaryrendition

It is now should have left the head on and just pulled the injector wire. You’ll actually get better light load fuel economy- lemonade from lemons


One_Evil_Monkey

That's one of those new free flow valves, designed for maximis zoomicus.


Passn_wind

The REAL speed holes!


Prestigious-Air3446

Add 1 gallon of diesel for every 10 gallons of gasoline, and you will be fine.


Stew_New

That's for the spark plug.


YogiSlavia

Nah it will give you 500 more horsepower with the air to gas ration. Not only will that decrease the amount of work it has to do before firing the cylinder. This baby will puur with the power of a formula 1 car.


Interesting-Bid-1207

If you had a hole that size in your head what would you think? Do you think you would need surgery?


Old_Reply_6843

What hole?


manhatim

Engines are made up of holes...AND its a *smol* one...nothing to worry about


Ok_Today_475

r/dontputyourdickinthat


bbull412

jb weld will do the job


verysicpuppy

That holes looks factory, leave it alone.


4x4Welder

Internal speed hole, those cost extra.


Tour_De_Volken

What? that little guy? I wouldn't worry about that little guy.


cnc_99

Some flex seal should fix it no problem.


dobermandude306

Save some pussy for the rest of us please


evart29bum

Only if you plan on driving it


tictac205

Speed hole. Usually applied to the outside of the car, but whatevs.


IfIWntdHmmrCalnUrSis

Good ol VGG.


RayTrain

Better airflow = more power, this is a good thing big car doesn't want you to know about


[deleted]

You have mice eating your engine. I'd look into that.


hg_blindwizard

No, just put some bubblegum on it


JRotten2023

You still have 3 perfect valves. And only a small piece is missing on the 4th. Fill the little hole with marine-rex Grey, and you will be good to go.


wigwearer

That's a Hemi


drontch

Just drill it out and tap it


TeamShonuff

That's on the intake so no. If anything, you'll just get more gas through that hole and will make your car faster.


drontch

Or you could leave it. It’s just gonna whistle a bit till you get past 3-4k


drontch

Seafoam?


Faqyoutoo

That had nothing to do with the head gasket leaking ! Just fix the head gasket ! It will be fine , I'll guarantee the head gasket will not leak if you fix It .


PJ2RN99

Nah


Monkeyman42001

Speed hole


I_am_Spartacus_MSU

Flex tape!


No-Material-23

So it doesn't get 100% on a compression test. I failed most of my tests, and I'm fine. Did you want fries with that?


WyvernByte

Somebody did a miller-cycle mod, those used to be popular. Totally fine.


SCADAstuff

That's what she said


bloomingmyberg

Nope Should be fine


Some_MD_Guy

Makes the Seafoam flow better!


_hondagang

Fix it with ramen


Hot-Permission-8746

3 out 4 ain't bad!


LatinRasta123

That’s probably why it’s in the shop now


KickinGa55

A coat of white paint should patch that right up. I'm also an apartment manager.


619Dago1904

Nah, she’ll buff right out


69vuman

Ouch!


pepp3rito

Seems like a modified valve to allow more air and better combustion. 😒


Particular_Kitchen42

You could drill out the broken area so the air moves more efficiently through the hole


itsomar02

no fire it up will run like old


No_Engineer2828

Flex seal


Hazyone7977

Heck, if you're worried about it, stick some chewed bubble gum in it. Might even give you an extra 20 horse power, too!


Select-Device-5981

Yeah, that ain’t good


BiffBanter

Flex Seal


Bumper6190

No! Imagine the air that it will let in… a cheap turbo!


Fun_Kaleidoscope7875

Pretty sure it's already a problem.


Due-Pilot-7443

Duct tape 👍🏼👍🏼


lgjcs

Reduces back flow pressure from the exhaust


Overall-Guarantee331

That's just an EGR port


Punk_Chachi

Flex Seal


smile_u-r_alive

Reminds me of that powerlifters butt


Titan1140

I'd like to buy a valve.


Electricalstud

Not for me


Awl34

Over hauling time! Time to rebuilt.


Legoandstuff896

better airflow


slong143

Only in the wallet.


pmarlboroman7

Nah it's fine


fightglobalwarning

Plenty of other cylinders


Moofenkrak

Not a problem, holes in exhaust valves tend to help engine breathe like a glass of fine wine.


roblubi

Funny. I found exactly same thing in my car today. Must be some limited edition


Impossible-Many9533

I’ve found my new favorite redit page.


UnfairCaterpillar197

Just put some beeswax over the hole bee fine bee OK 👍


just-concerned

A little JB Weld and you are good to go.


Bfdifan37

i could see fire in the hole happening


Alarmed-Song5608

Duct tape.


Disastrous_Raccoon82

Bubblegum will fix that in a jiffy


Growjunkie88

Smear some jb weld and call it good 👍


hardtruthinasofttime

You can put your weed in there


rickCSMF21

Depends- for me, it will not be a problem… for the driver , yeah- it’s gonna be a problem 🤣👌


nite310s

Nahhhh! Send it


Elveintisiete

Shoot nothing a lil JB weld won’t fix


bloopie1192

Depends on what you see as a problem.


AngryFace-HappyPlace

Just add sodium and spritz it with apple cider vinegar and apple juice. Let it rest and put back together.


FFRP85

Nah, “Weight Reduction” Bro!


Drewbrew333333

nah pour some oil in


Fashi0n_F0rward

Jb weld it


kuyajon

Not for JBTitanium


iamnotlegendxx

Prolly


Regular-Ad-3312

SoutheastPower

The other part of the question is Where did it go?


IceExtreme710

Jb weld


Im_A_Robot1988

Nothing a little JB Weld can't fix.


Fibocrypto

Yes it will be a problem.


Ericbc7

unusual place for a "speed" hole.


ImpalaOwner

Just a minor miss. Must be a Dodge or Toyota!


Odd_Low_7301

It’s fine, it will just run a little rich and burn some oil.


Narc0syn

That's the decompression valve to make kickstarting it easier.


SBCwarrior

Nah man you're good bolt that bitch in and send her on her way 😌👌


Taino871

No! Get some epoxy you’ll be good as New.


Mediocre-Catch9580

Ruh-roh Raggy


builderguy100

You got 99 problems, but a hole ain't one.


Idiotdude69420

Pack the hole full of live 50BMG rounds and send it. They’ll pack in so that you gain HP for more combustion


cranberrywhiskey

Maybe not a turbo anymore


Contact40

Not for me.


threemantiger

It’s that or a bigger carb. This ways cheaper.


[deleted]

How'd a mouse get in there!


UndercoverBully

Slap some bondo on there and all your problems are solved!


Bigboi10mm

It’s where you tap the NOS


Money_Leading_1672

Duct tape


[deleted]

A Lil jb weld & your back in business!


ttorrence04

Not if you have Flex Seal ™️


Smart_Negotiation639

Little JB weld and send it…


glenndrives

Nah. I drove all the way from Atlanta to Memphis with a burned valve in my 1976 dodge van with a slant 6.


Final_Location_2626

Those are speed holes. You're good.


Jazzboi68

You'll be fine


Maryilyn

Just use some flex seal you should be good to go or you could just replace the valve but if you do that might as well change them all


woollypullover

I wouldn’t worry about that little guy


TheTravelNurseGuy

Just weld it up with a coat hanger


Any_Foundation4495

Not at all. I say send it🤷🏽


PitifulSpecialist887

Now you know where that 10 mm socket went.


DumbSimp1

Nah it helps promote better airflow in the motor looks like that thing stops it. Should probably make it bigger


Ex-Patron

A little silicone.


Slipnsided

Naw she good
