    2G Can’t seem to get my emissions monitors ready or complete

    The monitors are not set by miles but rather by driving conditions. Here's what the FSM says on setting the monitor codes. Black box ECU is different.Also, here's the Mitsubishi Technical Service Bulletin they issued about the troubles getting the codes to set.

    2G Can’t seem to get my emissions monitors ready or complete

    95 thru 97 factory turbo ECUs have a bug & the monitors (readiness codes) reset at keyoff therefore, never set. It's a known problem & the EPA standard has published exemption for these car years.The documents are uploaded on this forum. Search for "readiness monitors" & you should find them &...

    2G Subaru 20g turbo capatability?

    You can swap the compressor housing too if the actuator does align using the Subaru's compressor housing. A 20G CHRA is a 20G CHRA.

    AEM Idle tuning AEM EMS v1 PnP

    Motors don't like idling so there are several things added in to the tuning to help them idle. What specifically is your idling doing? What's not correct? You need to tell us more with details. Are you starting your idle tuning using the AEM base calibration settings & trying to tweak from there?

    Home water heater replacement

    Home water heater replacement

    Navien's are condensing. Exhaust & intake can be PVC. I just ran the new PVC exhaust into the opening of my leftover tank water heater exhaust. Was very simple. You should be able to slip a tankless into the same space the tank heater was in, connect the water in to in, out to out, I'm natural...

    Home water heater replacement

    I still stand by all my earlier comments. My Navien tankless has been one of my best decision and couldn't be more pleased. On/off with a push of a button, hot water in 60 seconds, and can change water temp as easy as scrolling to set the value. I use 120F for showering & general use but will...

    2G Radiator Differences?

    ASA shows all 2G's have been superseded to using the same radiator M/T or A/T. All mine are manual but it doesn't look like the radiator has an A/T cooler as part of it.

    Something I didn't see mentioned which can cause clutch engagement problems are the tranny bolts to the bellhousing. Make sure they're all there, tight & torqued to spec. Especially the "crankwalk" bolt which install's right next to the driver side half shaft from the engine side, opposite...

    2G Overheating

    A few years ago I had an over heating problem when I had to go up long hills. I end up fix this with a Mitsubishi OEM radiator cap. I tried a couple (2) of the radiator caps (Stants & some other off brand they had) but still would over heat. The OEM cap solved this for me.

    2G Manifold Heat Shield/Melted A/C fan

    Most likely. I'm at 6000 ft, air is thin (less density) and has a harder time carring the heat away probably. It was summer when I melted my fan & we see 100° plus temp for several days every year too.

    2G Manifold Heat Shield/Melted A/C fan

    Yes. Happened to me with the T-25. Was still running the OE exhaust manifold. Had the lower heat shield off because I was connecting up a WBO2 for learning my AEM.

    2G Manifold Heat Shield/Melted A/C fan

    I melted my fan and did not have an exhaust leak. Found that the hot spot radiating the most heat was right at the turbo housing outlet into the O2 housing/downpipe. An exhaust leak should leave a soot witness mark.
  26. Mello

    2G Manifold Heat Shield/Melted A/C fan

    It's not the manifold that's melting the fan. The turbine housing, O2 housing, & downpipe are the culprids. If you're running external WG off the O2, then this too & don't overlook the WG dumptube.

    2G 2g coolant temp sensor issue?

    All the 2G (1995-1999) 4G63 turbo use the same Coolant Temp Sensor (p/n MD182467) for the ECU input. Tranny does not make a difference for the CTS.

    2G Input shaft seal replacement

    Yep. You'll need an air hammer to get the pins out (& maybe some ear plugs, hammering the pins was like ringing the Liberty Bell). Forewarn, it was not fun when I did mine, it was leaking like yours sounds like.

    You can get to the tranny selector shaft seal by removing the shift linkage on top of it. It's not easy as the tapered, press fit pins are a pain the knock out (tapered meaning they only go in or out in one direction). I wouldn't try this with the tranny in the car either, space is very...

    420A 2GNT Can I run a AFPR and a FMU?

    Sorry but what you're asking is fairly far up the ladder from a "tuner" perspective. Your trying to throw parts at your car without knowing how all these different individual pieces are engineered to working together.
  45. Mello

    420A 2GNT Can I run a AFPR and a FMU?

    This would depend on how your fuel system is set up. Usually the FMU is used when your fuel injectors are not properly sized (too small) for your fuel needs. FMU will increase fuel pressure non-linearly (6:1, 8:1) to force more fuel through the injectors. An FPR tries to hold the fuel...

    420A Boosted 420a FPR

    FPR are not tuned. You adjust them for a specific pressure & they keep this pressure constant between the the intake manifold & fuel line so the difference is always the same (i.e.: the pressure difference across the fuel injector in & out needs to remain the same). You adjust tuning through...

    It depends on what material the bumper is made from. OEM bumpers were urethane but different plastics & fillers don't always work with each other and need proper matching so everything will bond.
