    1G Noise in rear of the car when decelerating

    I tried to remedy this a while back. After I did a lot of drivetrain work (carriers, rear subframe bushings, twin disk). I tried swapping out the rear end, carrier bearings, motor mounts, figuring something was wrong, but it didn't change. The car has been making deceleration noises for the past...

    Liquid filled fuel Gage/AFPR ??

    If you base pressure is 43, and you put 40 psi on the vacuum line going into the fpr (bike pump, air line, whatever), then you will see the fpr gauge go to 83psi, providing your pump is on. Do this with your car off, acc on. You only want the pump on. You could wire it on if you don't have...

    1G Vibration and power loss under load

    A few months ago the car ran great, next time I drove it, it felt like the clutch was slipping (low mileage PTT). RPMs were going up, drivetrain had a bad vibration to it (only when boosting, having symptoms by 10psi), and it was making bad power. Let off the gas and it runs normal. I took the...

    The weak link

    Looks like a good list Those injectors may be a touch on the small side, but you could bump your fuel pressure up if it were close, and were just looking for a number. Good luck and let us know after you get it together

    Noob camshaft degree question

    Degree the cam so it opens 0.040" when your engine is at whatever hks specifies. It doesn't matter which direction it's going, you are degreeing them to be in the right position. Yea, degree them however you want, keeping in mind hks profiles are good at baseline. This is a pretty basic...

    Cometic MLS HG install. Need to know?!?

    Yea man, as long as both surfaces are cleaned real well (sounds like you did), slap them together and go. No need to do the block again (just verify with a quick straight edge). I usually do a round of rubbing alcohol just prior to putting them together. Torque and go.

    Borg warner s256, oil feed restrictor or not?

    You want to restrict pressure, not flow. I measure my pressure off the OFH with a T in the line, then would change pressure with relief porting and OFH spring length.

    low impedance or high?

    There are no 2000cc low impedance injectors, they are all high imp The FIC bluemax injectors are the ones you'll look at if you want to stay low imp It doesn't matter if they are low or high, just that you have enough fuel Fic has a calculator on their page, 1450s would be enough for you at 80%...

    Installed twin disc now noise when clutch is engaged.

    You may be pushing on the fingers too much Do you have an OEM slave or an Isuzu? +1 for putting a pedal stop in - get the car off the floor and have it stop after the clutch is engaged enough, not too much extra

    They aren't bad at all. The shoulder straps are a bit low (Im 5'11"). I would think these would be more and more irritating the taller you were.

    ECMlink BREAKUP/MISFIRE 4-5K RPMS w/LOG

    1 - You made no mention of gapping them @ .020", only .025", how would I know? Also, if you're actually gapping @ .25", that's still probably your problem. 2 - DA Tables? I would open some logs from other members on Link and see what other members are using for values - this will give some...

    rpm problem

    So it idles fine now, just your RPMs dropped when when you used the seafoam? Because you are introducing all that extra cleaner that isnt air or fuel into the combustion chamber, you cant expect it to run the same.

    Chevy steering box help (easy)?

    I had a problem with this too - the rack is presumably worn to death where its been used the most, but as soon as you get outside of that part on the rack, that steering is good - so your pinion is good. I replaced the rack and havent had an issue since.

    Flywheel not aligned

    Dowel pins came to mind first, I had a similar problem a few years back. You didnt remove the trans - did someone else about the time you bought it? You could maybe loosen all the trans-engine bolts and try to rotate the trans clockwise/counterclockwise -> snug it up -> crank it and assess...

    1g driveshaft vibration after filling carrier bearing

    Did you drop the driveshaft when you filled them or not? If not, the driveshaft was sagging in the carrier and it's formed that way as well as possibly half torqued like Jack said. Climb underneath with a small level (or an iphone level app) and measure all 3 segments of the shaft; add washers...

    What should vacuum pressure be?

    I guess you could argue 760mmHg (sea level) - 480mmHg (car vacuum) = 280mmHg, which is still positive, but this is absolute #, not a practical gauge value. Since a boost gauge reads in gauge pressure/vacuume, Id think it would have to have a "-" before it to be technically correct, however, it...

    2G Passenger Axle removal

    c-clip stays in place, dont worry about it. Get under and the car and put something between the axle cup and the trans housing. If you need further directions, you're in trouble.

    2G Passenger Axle removal

    Take a flat head screw driver in (you dont want to mangle the seal) then just twist the screwdriver 90 degrees and it'll loosen right up - make sure the other end is unbound and ready to go so that you arent fighting against it.** Hammering that driver in isnt necessary as I remember, just...

    What should vacuum pressure be?

    -16mmHg is high (rather less negative than you would expect), your car should be pulling 20+ if everything is stock and healthy. Is it running poorly or were you just checking to check?

    Strange sound coming from rear diff on deceleration

    To add: I installed the poly rear bushings from tuners nation on my 1g a year or so back and there was incredible noise on decel from the rear diff. I actually hunted 2 others diffs down to compare with and had the same results, so dont be surprised if its still bangin' on decel with new...

    HELP CAR BREAKS UP, MISFIRES w/ LOG

    Thoughts: -Try gapping them smaller yet, check your ignition timing, base FP -> post a log. Lots of people need to reduce their stock gap when running more than stock boost, because they are blowing out their spark. -Leave them at .028 and buy a CDI
