    Rpms running high

    sounds like a vacuum leak behind the throttle plate, make sure your thottle body gaskets are there, the little o-ring for the IAC isnt missing, all the hoses are hooked up, brake booster, fuel reg., map sensor o-ring, and EGR lines, and if something isnt pulling on the throttle. .

    CEL doesnt go off

    best way to test an EVAP system is to seal the system and fill it with smoke from a smoke machine, a local smog tech should be able to test the system for you and look for leaks. EVAP problems could be anything. . overfilling the car with gas causes the liquid gas into the charcoal canister and...

    Strange oil psi issue

    yeah looks like a bad valve cover gasket, and a missing valve cover bolt.
  11. SlushBoXRacer

    Cylinders 2&3 no spark (coil pack and plugs good)

    +1 on the power transistor. . they get old and worn out. unplug it and check for corrosion in the connection (like a white crusty film)
  12. SlushBoXRacer

    Oil leak before MOD :(

    looks like it could be coming from the valve cover gasket

  16. SlushBoXRacer

    No spark on CYL 1 and 4

    yup power transistor for sure. . take it off and see connections have a white film on them, they are not repairable and are a little over 100 bucks at the autozone.

    Re used Downpipe gasket

    just get a new one they are cheap. . and coat it with the copper gasket spray in the copper aerosol can. . (cant think of the name) i use it on all exhaust gaskets and have never had one fail on meon an emissions note, if the car has a small exhaust leak it could fail emission test for N0x...

    PCV location/symptoms blue smoke help!!

    the way to test them is to take it off and shake it. . if it rattles its good. but the spring inside could also be broken too sooo. . . they are like 2-3 bucks just buy one if you have never replaced it. . they last about 30-40K.
  19. SlushBoXRacer

    need some advice,how can i blow up my t-25 on purpose?

    dump some sand into it while the engine is on. . . should make a cool sound.
  20. SlushBoXRacer

    who would build YOUR engine

    + on that even if they do, they dont have it in stock. . lol fail!i would also try jackstransmissions.com they build some stout little engines from what i have seen and they seem a little less $$.
  21. SlushBoXRacer

    2g turbo manifold on 1g

    as long as its a n/t 4g63 intake manifold im sure its the same, if its not the bov line just needs manifold vacuum, which is anything behind the throttle body in the manifold
  22. SlushBoXRacer

    can anyone figure this out?

    might have sucked up some crap at the bottom of the tank. . check the basics, fuel, spark, and air.
  23. SlushBoXRacer

    why would i have to pump my gas to get my car to start?

    i would say it could be a fuel issue FPR or pump. . but pumping the gas on a fuel injected engine? fail.
  24. SlushBoXRacer

    If I use this wastegate do i have to relocate alternator

    you should be ok, it might also depend on the waste gate you want too.
  25. SlushBoXRacer

    Never Hit Fuel Cut anymore? Kinda Scared

    14b 26psi, stock engine, something has to be at its limits. i would start trying to see why it did that and fix it so it doesnt happen again.
  26. SlushBoXRacer

    old gas

    yeah clean as much out as you can. . gas starts going bad after about 30 days
  27. SlushBoXRacer

    2G Radiator fan wont turn car over heats at ideal

    swap the fans and see is the other turns on as well on a know good connection, things like motors, relays sensors and stuff that moves are the most ofter cause of a problem cause they are what is doing the work.
  28. SlushBoXRacer

    2G Rod or main bearing?

    its more then likely a rod knock. . time for a rebuild. . no amount of oil additive can save you or fix it. . all that stuff is just junk. . if have bad bearing how is some liquid going to replace the babit or tang the (metal part) on the bearing??
  29. SlushBoXRacer

    no low end power, like, at all??

    have you tried taking the A/C belt off? maybe the compressor is starting to go and dragging, they usually make horrible noises right be for the freeze up and die. . maybe a boost leak test? any CEL?
  30. SlushBoXRacer

    car runs fine after ecu replace but cant past 4000 rpms

    maybe check the transistor pack too, it can cause some weird problems. especially going from a 90 to a 91-94 ecu or vise-versa, because the transistor pack is wired different.
  31. SlushBoXRacer

    My thought's on Eclipse's

    congrats on the buy, you will enjoy it!

    Help On This Hx35 Build... Will It Be 400whp Cabable?

    i would also say metal head gasket and the ARP head studs. cam choice will also help you get to your power level that you want.
  35. SlushBoXRacer

    non turbo tranny

    from what I understand the 1g non turbo transmissions are are weaker, but can be used in a pinch and bolt right up. stock turbo power levels probably wouldnt kill it right away unless you race it everywhere.
  36. SlushBoXRacer

    Was boosting 11 to 12..now im only at 7

    start with a boost leak test:thumb:

    I pour'd a bottle of fuel injector cleaner in and my engine quit 3 minutes later

    just my .02 . . . but that fuel injector stuff is snake oil. . . i dont think its the best way to clean the injectors, i mean how do you clean something with the material that is making it dirty?? its like washing a dirty car with dirty water and adding some soap to the mix. . . i would say...
  38. SlushBoXRacer

    Has Compression but wont start

    do you have spark and fuel? why did you swap out the ECU?
  39. SlushBoXRacer

    my set-up..how much psi?

    +1 sounds good me ?? loleven if you had everything to run 20psi, why start that high? logically is it not better to start low then work your way higher?? even with the correct logger?

    lets hope for no break downs this time. but ill bring my tools just in cause. LOL
  43. SlushBoXRacer

    No power with key on HELP!

    more then likely is the 80amp fuse in the fuse box, under the hood, they are held in by small 8mm or 10mm bolts that are down low on the side of the fuse, so dont just start pulling on them. good luck!
  44. SlushBoXRacer

    1st engine swap ever! Any help would be awesome.

    speaking of knock. . . dont the NT blocks need to be drilled and tapped for the knock sensor aswell?
  45. SlushBoXRacer

    1G No start Issue.

    does the car fire, or does it just crank? is fuel coming out of the injectors or did you just check to see if it is in the rail?
  46. SlushBoXRacer

    Ignition break up

    have you opened the ECU up to check for leaking caps?? and the 90 ecu is different because of the way the transistor pack is setup which pretty much controls the ignition system
  47. SlushBoXRacer

    Low Idle / Stalling Problem... Any Ideas?

    an o2 wont stall the car or make it shut off, check the basics, air fuel, spark. after that try anything that will control the idle, IAC and such, then on to crank and cam position sensors, usually when a computer detects something way out of range it will substitute a value and run with that...

    Registering a car out of state to avoid smog?

    yeah the mail is an issue, if the law ever decides to investigate they will be looking to see how much mail goes to the registration address, and if its only 1 car's registration..they are going to be pissed.
