  1. Exhaust manifold torque specs

    Does anyone know the torque specs for the exhaust manifold nuts? I'm talking about the ones that go from the headers -> engine. ThanksJason Convry '92 GS
  2. No Spark... suggestions?

    Where is the coolant temp sensor?Thanks, Jason
  3. No Start!!

    What I usually do is start checking at the source of the problem and work backwards. In this case, pull the fuel line off of the fuel rail and watch is squirt fuel when the car is cranking. Make sure the line you pull off is the one coming from the fuel filter. On 1G DSM's this is the one on the...
  4. No Spark... suggestions?

    I have a 92 GS that isn't getting any spark. I was driving it, when it just died all of a sudden and won't start. I've tried a replacement coil, and tested the power resistor with a D battery. Both seem to be working. What other culprits could there be?ECU and CAS: How do I check these? The...
  5. New injector problem, need answers

    well i figured 450cc is 450cc, plus someone told me they would work. How could I compensate for it? I mean I can't change the settings or anything. Would a gsx (at idle) dump that much more fuel into the combustion chamber than a GS?ThanksJason
  6. New injector problem, need answers

    I just put injectors from a '99 gsx into my 92 gs NT 2.0. The car will barely stay running with my foot on the gas and is puffing black smoke. (i dont think its blue - hard to tell). Also needless to say, my plugs are fouled.Injectors from a 99 gsx are still 450cc correct? What else could be...
  7. car keeps stalling, tried everything

    ooh whats bg44k?? if it's just fuel injector cleaner that you put in the gas, i already tried it.thanks jason
  8. Front Motor Mount

    my bad, i have a NT so maybe it's different. I was just under my car 15 minutes ago and the headers i have are pretty much touching the subframe I'm talking about so you pretty much have to remove mine to get to the mount. I havent been under a turbo car as of yet. good luckjason
  9. car keeps stalling, tried everything

    I read about that whole springtime DSM failure business, but I dont think it's that. My car was always a little shaky on the cold start. I'm gonna check FPR today and timing. I'll let you know what I find.
  10. Valve lifter help!

    oops forgot about that little detail. well i will soon :D
  11. car keeps stalling, tried everything

    OK I know this question has been asked a million times, yada yada yadabut when my car is cold it stalls until i hold my foot on the accelerator until it warms up. Then it operates wonderfully. The things I did to try and fix this problem consist of:new ISC (2 of them - im starting a...
  12. Front Motor Mount

    If you're talking about the one in the center of the car all the way to the front that bolts to the center of the front part of the block, then its not that bad. It's actually attached to the center subframe, which has two 17mm bolts in the front and 3 to the rear. Unfortunately, you have to...
  13. Valve lifter help!

    really i run 87 usually (i dont have a ton of money), and i rarely even notice a difference in how the motor runs.
  14. Valve lifter help!

    There was one injector that was really loud. That one I got a replacement for from national auto parts or something like that. It was 28 bucks. Then to fix the rest of them i just ran the car at 3k for a minute and it went away :) Before I read the manual I was just afraid to run it with all...

  18. Valve lifter help!

    I have a 92 GS with the 2.0 DOHC 4G63. Advance doesn't carry the right ones. Where is the cheapest place to get them? Thanks
  19. Valve lifter help!

    I would like to re use as many as I can, instead of spending a whole lot of money. I'm thinking of selling the car soon. Now, the ticking is unnaturally loud, so I may have missed something in the process. If someone has a good knowledge of how hydraulic lifters in our cars work, please give me...
  20. Valve lifter help!

    I followed the vfaq on cleaning my hydraulic lifters. Everything went well but now when i put them back in my car won't stop that clattering sound. And it's definitely not supposed to be that loud. It's much louder than before I took them out and cleaned them.The only thing I can think of...
  21. How to change valve seal guides without taking head off??

    My grandfather used to build Chevy race engines and he is telling me there is a way to replace valve guide seals without taking the head off. You compress the air through the spark plug chamber, and it holds the valves up. The concept makes sense, but I wanted to check with you guys to see if...
  22. 96 NT not starting, please help!

    Hi, my sister has a 96 RS. It would start up fine if it sat a while, but then when you turn it off and try to restart it, it would just keep turning and not fire up. I replaced the fuel filter which helped for a little while, but now the problem is back. I did the on off on off on thing with the...

    Ok thanks a lot everyone for the inputJason
  24. Lifter Tick [merged] Revised lifters 3rd Gen Generation 3g

    Ok thanks. I don't have the cash to fix them now. Will it damage my engine if I keep running them like this? ThanksJason
  25. Lifter Tick [merged] Revised lifters 3rd Gen Generation 3g

    Perhaps, but if the lifters are maladjusted, I want to correct the clearance problem. I'm just wondering if the setup on my car is different than my CRX.I know there are two types of lifters: solid and hydraulic (or something like that). Anyone know which type my car has? And how do I adjust...
  26. Lifter Tick [merged] Revised lifters 3rd Gen Generation 3g

    Lifter tick threads are merged here.My valves are beginning to tick really loudly now and I want to adjust them. I had the same problem in my crx a while back and my grandfather and I adjusted something inside the valve cover, and the problem was fixed in under an hour.I have a haynes...
  27. Help with loud squeal in reverse

    No, it doesn't slip or anything, it is just loud. It scares people walking by because they always stop and stare and say "what the hell?" I thought it might be something wrong with the parking brake. HmmJason Convry
  28. 1G Error Code help

    My check engine light is on, so I checked for codes. I'm not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting more than one code. It goes long-short pause long-short-short pause long-short pause.. etc.Is it possible for the ECU to be throwing multiple codes? The codes I got were oxygen...
  29. Help with loud squeal in reverse

    This morning i was backing up, put the clutch in, and hit the brakes and heard a very LOUD squeal from the back. At first I thought I had rubbed up against a dumpster that sits there. I only had a chance to glance at the brakes, and they look fine. This only happens when I'm going backwards. Any...
  30. Borla Headers?

    Yeah I just saw them today. It sucks too because I just replaced my down pipe and now realized that I also need to replace a cracked manifold. Could've saved a lot of cash. Oh well, it's just money.Jason
  31. Borla Headers?

    Has anyone had any experience with Borla headers? They're the only company I can find that makes headers for a 1G other than Pacesetter, but I am putting them on myself and don't want to have to take half my car apart to do so. ThanksJason Convry
  32. What headers are available?

    They only have 2G headers. I need one for a first gen. Thanks though, GReddy is sweet.Jason
  33. Where is Emergency Fuel Shutoff???

    Yeah I already changed it. Apparently there is no shutoff switch. Hmm.. thanks anywaysJason
  34. Fuel Filter HELP

    Thanks everybody. I found it, replaced it, and i started right up. I did manage to skin all the knuckles on my right hand though. :D My sis owes me.Jason
  35. Where is Emergency Fuel Shutoff???

    Hi I'm looking for the emergency fuel shutoff switch. Do I need to shut this off when replacing the fuel filter? Any other pointers?Jason
  36. Fuel Filter HELP

    Ok. Do I need to shut off the fuel supply? I know most cars have an emergency fuel shut off switch that needs to be shut off when opening up the fuel lines so it doesn't all poor out. I can't find mine in the 96 RS. Does anybody know where it is?Jason
  37. Fuel Filter HELP

    Thanks man but this is on my sister's car. She has a 96 Eclipse RS. Any idea where it is on her car? I can't find it anywhere online and I have half the engine bay torn apart. (I got frustrated) :-)Jason
  38. Fuel Filter HELP

    The only thing bolted to the firewall behind the battery is a tiny little thing with two bolts (they look like banjo bolts) but it's right above the axle and when I turn the steering wheel, some sort of metal rod assembly (sorry for the lame description) turns with the wheel and goes right into...
  39. Fuel Filter HELP

    Hi, I need help with replacing my fuel filter. My sisters 96 RS won't start and I think it's a clogged filter. I can't really find the filter. Someone said it's behind the battery. But if someone can give me a basic step by step process, or give me a link to instructions, i'd really appreciate...
  40. What headers are available?

    Hi I need to buy headers for my car, but want to keep it cheap. Other than pacesetter which I've heard horror stories about, what inexpensive headers are out there for a 1G DOHC? Thanks allJason Convry
  41. Help with cracked manifold!

    I found the website that sells it, but is there anywhere else that retails it? Or at least is close to the east coast than CA? ThanksJason Convry
  42. Help with cracked manifold!

    Thanks, I'll probably try them out then. Do you have any experience installing them? Can you give me any pointers? Also, what fitment issues are there? And what other than WD-40 can help me get the bolts off the manifold?Jason
  43. Help with cracked manifold!

    Thanks a lot for the help. Anybody else have any experience with them? Also what other brands are available for about the same price?Thanks
  44. Help with cracked manifold!

    I was informed today that my exhaust manifold is cracked and needs replacing. Now I'm under the impression that if I get aftermarket headers, they will completely replace the factory exhaust manifold. I really hope so.If this is true, what brand of headers should I get? I'm not worried about...
  45. Where can I get the Energy Suspension shifter bushing set

    Hmm. Ok maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the feedback.Jason
  46. Ahh, the infamous cloudy headlight.

    Yep. I used a toothbrush. It worked ok, but if the metal polish doesn't work I'm gonna try using a tougher brush like the one Advance auto parts sells for detailing. That should do it.
  47. Where can I get the Energy Suspension shifter bushing set

    Thanks, but they don't. I already checked. I checked out the RRE page, but it looks pretty sketchy. I'd rather order from somewhere more well-known.Jason
  48. Ahh, the infamous cloudy headlight.

    I just got my Eclipse and it had really cloudy headlights. I used the toothpaste method and it helped a LOT. Too bad now my left light is clearer than my right and it looks retarded. :pI'm gonna try the Eagle One metal polsih
  49. Where can I get the Energy Suspension shifter bushing set

    I'm looking for a 1g ES bushing set, but I can't find one on all the usual sites. Anyone know where to get one? Someone said RRE but I don't know what that stands for :DJason
  50. Distributor?

    I see. This seems pretty convenient. Why don't other car companies do setups like this? Do distributors perform better?Jason
