For anyone interested, this is what I found.Timing belt was so loose I could have pulled it off by hand, if the lower timing cover wasn't there.Intake valves made contact.Current plans are Eagle/Wiseco/ACL bearings. Hopefully get away with...
Ahh at least I know what's going on now!I rebuilt that motor when I was 18 about 14 years ago. I used a cheap rebuild kit that was $80 with King bearings, eve piston rings and some cheap ass gaskets. (From advice of someone helping me).Its...
Interesting compression results...#1 ~165
#2 - 0
#3 ~ 155
#4 - 0You can hear the compression difference in cranking when the tester was in a good cylinder.I reckon I'll dig out my leak down tester out of storage before ripping into it.
Strong, equal spark on all 4.I did notice it looks like some oil is dripping from cyl #4 exhaust manifold. Going to do a compression check this weekend to rule that out
I'll have to wait for a buddy to check for spark.I did the two ohm tests for the coil pack which passed. I also swapped plug wires, and reset the ecmlink settings and fpr for 37 psi. No change.Will update when I have a helper to verify spark...
I'll set it back to 37 this afternoon on ECM and on the FPR.I believe it's an unhacked 2g MAF but I can verify that.I still need to OHM out the coil pack and I'll try swapping plug wires as well with another set.
I'll see if I can do that...
Here's a video of trying to start first thing this morning. No gas applied just key. After the first hiccup it'll just crank unless I flutter gas pedal it will do that again like it wants to start.I suspect that what ever made the car run funky...
I used the ECMLink calculator for the fuel setting and dead time from the injector info chart. What should 950s be set at for global? For some reason it was at 71% when I plugged the laptop in.I can take some engine pics. I replaced the plugs...
Hey guys, about 2 years ago I was in the process of tuning my car. Went through all the basic ECMLink testing stuff making sure it was mechanically sound, no boost leaks etc.Had the car close loop tuned and was beginning on open loop, when one...
Need a 1g hatch wiring harness. According to performancepartout, 90-94 will work, but they are out of stock.Its a 1gb Talon.Dipshit friend I had helping me work on it, cut the wires where the hatch opens, rather than disconnecting the plugs...
