So im coming off the highway, and i stop at the Light...it's turns Green so i accelerate then i hear a "clank/pop" and pretty much lose all power (not electrically speaking) so i coast into the nearest parking lot cruising at about 5MPH. So i have a Dimwit(Long story) of a mechanic tell me something is wrong w/ the Valves and said it will cost me about 1500 to #1 have him find out whats really wrong in detail #2 fix it . My mechanical know how only includes changing Oil, Brakes & Rotors..so i'm a bit lost. Someone told me that 1995 models are known to break valvesprings so is there any one to absolutely confirm this? Any general advice on how to proceed with this would be fantastic , i really dont wanna have to sell it being as though i inherited this from my Grandfather (original owner 119k miles)
