Anyone here know a good place in queens ny where i can get my engine removed and rebuilt .I think my engine is blown ,i found some grey sludge under the radiator cap and the car over heats .i was told that the slime or sludge is oil getting into the coolant system .I replaced the thermasat with mazda oem and still over heats ,and it seems to have lost power,the fan seems to be working the shrowd is in place the belly pan is on the car.the car idle's perfect and i dont see any smoke,every couple of days i have to ad coolant I dont see any leaks .

I am not in queens but i cant find anybody where i live ,my brother lives in queens astoria ,i would drive the car there and let him take it somehere for me and call me when it is ready i would come and pic it up after.I did a search and found a place called t&r in jamaica ,ny.I think have oil in my coolant system from what i was told by a freind ,and also in a thread i posted on this site.so i guess it is an oil seal in the engine is bad . since this means a rebuild i can't afford to do it right now the car will be stored for a little while thanks for the advice and help.

ill double that j&r is the worst place u could bring your 7 to. I used to bring my 7 there they took way to long to finish the work, the job they did would be half *** and they over charge. I had them put a y pipe on and a bov took them over a week and they blew my rear cv joint. Bad shop go with t&r

i no longer work there, you might catch me hanging out there once in a while visiting joe and the guys, but im no longer affiliated with that shop in a business sense.
