Are you sure you got ALL the ceramic out of the cylinder? Even a tiny piece can fall down on top of a ring and score the hell out of the wall. Feel like pulling some plugs back out and looking?

 

Just wanted to chime in on this conversation. When I did a tune up on my truck. I got some wires mixed up which allowed the truck to burn a little richer. This, in turn, caused my cat converter to crack. It took a little while for this to happen so definitely keep an eye out for that. I ran the truck with the mixed up plugs for only 5 minutes. That's all it took. Best of luck on fixing your white smoke problem.

 

Oh man no way I don't think i could get it out, it deff dint come out. Would it not have disintegrated or something

 

i dont think i can pull off the head myselfe is there any other way to get it out there

 

Dude ... ceramic is HARD ... they make knives out of it. Even if it broke up, now you've got MANY tiny pieces in there ... like a handful of sand. Don't run it anymore. Pull the plug from the cylinder where the piece went into and see if you can fish it out. Do you have an air compressor? See if you can blow it out ... it CANNOT stay in there ... but I think it's probably too late. You might have to pull the head, pull the piston, hone the cylinder (if it's not gouged too deep - bore it if it is), re-ring that piston and put it back together.

 

SH**T no way man I did run it quite a bit thinking it would go away....... lol IM A DUMBASS ..... anyway think I can blow it out??? where not talking a huge piece that fell in maybe 1/16 by 1/16th maybe with a shop vac and some custom nozzle i can suck it out???

See if you can find something similar to this: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=95159

Used in combination with a shop vac with a small nozzle, you should be able to blast it up far enough that the vac will suck it out.

... or rig up a narrow nozzle to a vacuum supply and see if you can suck it out directly.

 

You can probably get it out by rigging up a small vac line hose to the end of a shop vac and snaking it down the plug hole, but the only way to really be sure is to pull the head. It's possible if it's really small that it is already gone thru the exhaust valve, but I wouldn't bank on that.

I'd turn the engine over by hand with all the plugs out until that cylinder was at BDC and then try to clean it out.

 

I took it for a 3 mile hard run thinking I would blow it out, It smoked white smoke leaving my house and when i got back ??? what do u think could have happened to the piece i have deff red lined it a few times in the driveway, I thought it was the brake cleaner burning away making the white smoke but it wont stop . Also i turned the engine over once or twice with the plugs out trying to blow the piece out like that
