alrighty, heres the deal
a while back i lost all my oil out of my car(1991 eagle talon tsi fwd), through a blown oil filter seal. after i replaced the oil an filter i heard a loud squeeling, which i found out was connecting rod bearings so i replaced them and the sound went away but soon after...
no its just that i want to go as fast as i can with other less expensive mods, cuz a turbo upgrade is a big expense, and I want to hold off on it for awhile.
well the upgrade wouldnt come till very far down the line, i just didnt know if you are suposed to have an external wastegate on a small turbo like a 14b. or if there were disadvantages to itthe reason i ask is cuz i want to get a turbo back exhaust, and if i get it with the o2 elim, then i...
alright im just starting to figure out some of this turbo/wastegate/creep stuff out, ,now i have a 14b, is getting a external wastegate agood idea bad idea and y?
i know about emmisions and i dont have to worry about them. so that rules that out.
im trying to think for the future and want to...
BozBot - my last name is Bosworth, in middle school people gave me the nickname, Boz(at least thats how i spell it, some spell it Bos) anyways, one day my friends little brother said I should make a battlebot, and name it BozBot. so I took that as my AIM sn and basically anything else I have a...
Alright I know many gauge questions have been answered before but im looking for a specific setup and want to know if it exists, and if so who sells it.
For a 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi 145 mph, 9k tach.
thinkin of getting a set of nt gauges since the stock boost gauge is garbage anyways.i want...
hey koreanpersuasio,
congrats on the new car. I pmed you asking about your gauges but considering i dunno if your gonna check it since your leaving us it seems, i will ask you before you go, what type of gauges are those? do they make them for the 1st gen? are they white or black? cuz i cant...
thanks for the encouraging word jay, i am having a friends friend look at it, his car has lifter tick too, so hes gonna tell me if thats my problem.hes got a galant vr4, and has been dealing with the 4g63 motor for about 3 years or so now. hopefully he can give me a good idea.ps. jay, nice...
alright i think i have come to the conclusion that my car has lifter tick, but i wanna know some specifics about it before i assume it is, and drive my car.....my cars symptoms:
1. start the car sounds fairly quiet unless you open the hood and basically stick your ear on the valve cover.
2...
yeah i just had the exact same problem fixed, i had lost all my oil and started hearing a loud whinning sound, when reving the car. it didnt make the sound at idle tho. Its your connecting rod bearings man. i can gaurantee it.
well as some of you may no i have been having boost problems.
i took off the hose to vent the bov. i started the car and let it idle then i listened to the bov. it sounds like its leaking making a little hiss sound from where it should vent. i have the stock 1g bov(not crushed) could this be...
alright, i have a new question. i can hear my bov make th pfssst noise if i rev it in neutral, would that happen if the turbo wasnt working properly?
im getting so confused :confused: if it isnt the turbo, y then doesnt it boost? remmeber the vacuum lines are perfect, i spent 3 hours...
well i think i have come to the conclusion that my turbo is shot( no/low boost, vacuum lines are connected, some smoke is coming from the exhaust manifold/turbo area, it make a strange noise going down the road like the turbine is strugling to spin or something)my question is can/should i...
this may sound stupid but check the <b>front bulb</b> that is flashing fast, one of the two filiments might be burned out, that happened on my old ford probe, and a new bulb fixed the problem, if that doesnt work, u prob have to fix a relay.
well a couple weeks ago i took my 1991 talon tsi fwd off the road because i heard a metal on metal squeel coming from the engine after a huge oil leak. I was told that it was probably a blown rod, so today i finally had a chance to take off the oil pan, and inside I found metal shavings, however...
