    2G Is There Such a Thing as Factory Rear Floor Mats?

    As an option, the ralliart floor mats off ebay that I got for 60 bucks came with rear mats that fit like a glove. They look like they should be oem.

    Mechanic caused damage during test drive

    I would have a conversation with the owner, manager, whoever runs the place. 9 times out of 10 they would rather pay to fix the problem than pay for lawyers and potentially loose more.

    2G Need New Front Bumper, Some Questions

    You can find a oem style off ebay for 100 shipped. Only issue I've found other than the diamond etching is that the material is harder. Making it not nearly as flexible as the oem bumper. And your gonna have to paint it. On the other hand if you cant get a oem locally everyone is gonna murder...

    electrical issues: blower motor and wipers help

    I would check to see if the two share a common ground. Get a Chilton or a wiring diagram and double check those locations. It sounds like the ground for your blower is whacked. Could potentially be the resistor block. And your wipers are shorted to ground before the wiper motor if it's blowing...

    need plastidippers' advice

    From experience its easier just buying a newspaper and a roll of masking tape and covering everything with it. Also, I would do it inside, in stagnant air. Treat it like a real paint job. I painted my car in black plastidip with the same idea you had and in all honesty I should have just gotten...

    Spyder Possible alternator problem

    I had the same thing happen to me this morning on the way to work. I idled at 2k out of nowhere and my radio cut off and on. Turns out the end ring terminal to the alternator had heavy corrosion and the wiring end was trashed. Replaced the terminal and boom. Before shelling 100+ for a part check...

    2G Auto to Manual

    If you check some of our vendors I'm sure one of them has what you need. I'd be surprised if miller imports doesnt have that. If not then see if the avenger or neon has a similar set up.

    Hatchback floor and shelf

    You're not missing much. The stock floor was made outta some crappy,thin cardboard. Id recommend following cj8990 and just measure up some cardboard and pick a floor material to cut to shape. There's some other posts on here about sub enclosures if you want some ideas. Ive seen alot of guys just...

    Damn P 170

    Im just gonna state it so its out there. But boost leaks cause this. Has this been a constant code?

    You might have better luck checking on one of the neon forums for compatibility.

    Does this sound like a timing issue or bottom end

    Your compression is below service limits. Do a leak down test to determine where your compression is leaking from.

    2G Rear o2 sensor wiring location

    Yeah I pulled the center console and tried to find a cut wire or a plug but I couldn't find anything. I know there's a small plug right by the hole, then a bigger plug on a bracket in the center console. But I'm finding nothing.

    2G Rear o2 sensor wiring location

    Hey everybody! Well the rear o2 wiring was cut or removed by the p.o. and I cannot find the wiring harness for the rear o2. Ive done a few replace/removal on these things before so I know its under the carpet somewhere but for the life of me I cannot find the wires. The only posts I can find are...

    2G Engine louder at high rpm

    Yeah I'm confused about this sound difference between 6k and 7. Personally it sounds the same to me.

    Car smokes, has interesting compression.

    Do a leak down test. That will give you a better understanding.

    Beer tap shift knob

    I would also look into the throw that this thing will make. Third gear gets real close to that radio with the stock shifter.

    96 Eclipse rs high idle

    instead of a boost leak its a vacuum leak you dont supply pressure you just check for leakage. But ive never seen a 6k rpm vacuum leak. one of your sensors might not have been reinstalled right or plugged back into the right connector or something. get a vacuum gauge and hook it up to your...

    excessive heat, but not overheating

    well youll have no heater for your defrosters. I dont know if that safety feature means anything to you. that switch in the middle of your hvac that goes left to right controls outside air coming into the cabin. one side will allow heat from the core through the vents and the other will block it...

    2G Smoking at idle and other symptoms

    I would say your headgasket might be blown or in a worse case your head is warped from that heat, do a leakdown/compression test and go from there. a dead give away would be to take your sparkplugs out and look into your cylinders. If one is significantly cleaner than the rest then you know you...

    Overheating after mechanic worked on my car.....

    Call up your mechanic. They wouldnt have to drain the coolant for a clutch job but if they did it could be the wrong mix of water/coolant. You ever have this problem before?

    P0170

    Check for boost leaks/vacuum leaks. o2 sensors tell you theres a problem. Alot of times we shoot the messenger and hope that fixes the problem. I had the same problem and it was a slight vacuum leak at the throttle body that slowly worked the fuel trim out of spec causing the code.

    Really hot power and ground wire

    From working in the field I found that ohm tests don't really mean much cause the motor is not in its natural state. Voltage drop tests and amperage tests have been a much better diag tool for this kinda thing.

    Check engine light only after driving on highway?

    Dont blame a o2 sensor for doing its job. You most likely have a small leak that overtime causes the fuel trim to mess up. I had the same thing and it was an old vacuum line that would run a code after some 55+ mph driving.

    Horn issues -- and not the normal ones

    How do you know this vehicle was never equipped with the factory security system?zhave you ran the vin on this car to determine? you may just have the remnants of the stock system. Regardless, if you have power up to c 06 I would verify the ground to the switch and back probe from there.

    2G Windshield Wipers Turn On When Brake Pedal is Depressed

    Ive seen cars on multiple occasions where while its running the brake pedal activates the starter solinoid. Wires rub against each other and make contact on older cars. If you can look up the wiring harnesses or find what color wires are for the two and run down the lines youll find something.

    Coolant coming out of overflow drain but not overheating

    If everything else is good then you either have too much coolant in the system which isnt a big deal. Or the wetness is from somethimg else. When did this start?

    2G Key not applying power to starter

    You probably have a loose wire at the terminals. Do a voltage drop test or check the voltage going to the starter.

    2G Key not applying power to starter

    Make sure everything you unplugged is plugged back in. Check all your wires for a bad connection from you moving it around. Do you have instrument lights go on?

    Max safe boost? [Merged 10-6]

    If there's a boost controller connected to the turbo then that's it. Should be connected by 2 hoses one at the waste gate. If there isn't one then that's the first thing you should buy. Use the search to see what the setup looks like. And if you stay a/t you have no boost lag. ;)

    Max safe boost? [Merged 10-6]

    I would say that's on the edge of what the stock fuel system could handle. You'll probably be very close to fuel cut if you redline with that. You should be fine putting it down to 15 until you get your fuel system ready.

    Piston ring question

    It won't really do anything for you. There will be some leakage but if its obvious then you would have shown oil consumption issues before. And you won't know what amount is acceptable.

    95 GST BOV Questions

    The screw/nut that should be there compresses the spring so you can adjust the resistance of the bov. Too tight causes flutter when you let off the gasband that's bad for the turbo. And too loose causes it to release under boost. You want it there. If its hitting the hood you can go with a 1g...

    To Dip or Not to Dip?

    It is the best 200 dollar paint job you can get. And in the event that your going to get it painted professionally you can peel off most of it and you can also use a little bit of paint thinner for the difficult parts, the paint underneath is just going to be sanded off anyway. Its not a 15...
