So, I’m not sure how many of you have or had an AEM UEGO. I’ve had mine for years and in the Florida sun, it just deteriorated. However, my autometer phantom II gauge still looks pretty much new. So, for the last few years I have had no face on my gauge. Today I decided to change that. I trimmed...
I just got my car running again after a 2 year down time and I was going through my old parts box, when I noticed I had 3 O2 housings in there. Two of which I know are stock, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the third? The one in question is the top one in both pictures.
Anyone else notice the 1ga eclipse in the new Wu Tang show? Seems the DSM’s are definitely starting to get more popular recently with the article being posted, it being in “fastest cars” and now this.
Just a little update since the last one.. 6 years ago.I started messing with the car again once I moved to my new house. I wasn’t driving it for a while though because it was having issues starting since I had a rat in the engine bay again (imagine that lol) who decided to chew up lots of random...
Have you properly bled the system? I know when I first started bleeding cars I was told taught to pump the clutch when bleeding it to “build pressure”, which I found out later makes air bubbles in the system. Your supposed to push the clutch down, open the valve, let the air come out, close the...
Sounds like throttle position sensor/idle. Here is a link to every connector in the engine bay for a 1990, shows wire colors and connector type. http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/the-1990-engine-control-wiring-harness.412841/The black one is the one that should be for the idle.
do any of you know of somewhere I can buy a new harness for my talon? I have a 1990 harness. I want to replace the engine harness because I’ve had 2 rats now in my engine bay and I’m not even going to bother trying to preform repairs at this point I just want to replace it. I saw Reywire sells...
Yeah, but that doesn't mean the guy knows what he's talking about. I don't know myself so that's why I asked here to see if anyone knew for sure before I placed the order.I ended up ordering it, I'll just see if it fits when it comes I guess.
Anony know if the blower motor box for a 1gb is the same as the blower motor in the 1ga? I need a box and I found one but it says 1990-1994 on the add I'm looking at.
So I figured out what happened finially. I guess one of the P/O's tried to extend the harness and used those random green wires, I was going to start going back towards the relay to figure out what was going where and found the original wires :D! I'm going to wire it up tonight and let you guys...
Does anyone know why my harness would be different colors then what they should be? Nothing looks spliced back together or anything like that. My vin says my car is a 91 but I'm pretty positive the harness is for a 1990 since it was made in the early years of 1991 and has the external oil...
The colors are wrong for my car. On my car the wires coming from the harness side are GW, GR, GB, and B. I am trying to figure out which wires carries out which function.Or can someone take a picture of the stock 1g fans so I can see how the wiring is done please?
I am looking for the wiring diagram for the 1990, I have the electrical manual for it and have gone through it for about an hour and still can't find anything but the relay and how to check it and the A/C cooling fan. Does anyone have a wiring diagram with the colors and everything they can post...
So you think I could leave the FWD rears on until I can get some AWD ones then? I know the height is different but would it still be ok?Tried to lower it with the FWD struts on it. Not going to happen, not going to happen. So now back to the stock rears with prothane now until I can get the...
Well now I'm going to try to use the stock rears with the Eibach's but I've already separated the bushing from the sleeve on one, that's why I still need to find out if its ok. Unless it would be ok to run the FWD rear AGX's, figured it wouldn't be though with the size difference. I took some...
Not the bushing, the sleeve. This question still remains unsolved because even if I don't use the rear AGX's, I already removed the sleeve from the stock rear bushing. I have prothane inserts for either one though. The question still remains though, can I use the prothane bushing without a...
Ok, would it be ok for me to leave the front ones in and put the rear stock ones back on? My front shocks were bad before I changed to the AGX's in the front.
Whats the spring rate difference between the two?Maybe the title should say "Sleeve" instead of bushing.Seems like only the rears are different so maybe I can just order the rears brand new and use the eibach springs that were already on my stock KYB's on them. Also, the fronts came with...
I just bought some used 1g KYB AGX struts with Ebach Pro Springs on them about a week or so ago for $50. The front springs went on extremely smooth and only took me about 30 mins to do both. I got to the back and :ohdamn: . I took the stock struts off and realized the lower strut bushing sleeve...
Thank you :) Head gasket has been fixed by the way, but now the turbo took a poop :notgood: anyways, I still have to weld a T-25 waste gate to the manifold for butterfly runners. Once I get the turbo rebuilt that will be happening but for now I have to go back to the 14b :ohdamn: . Oh well... I...
So after about 2 days or so of driving it, the same thing happened again. Its locked up... I'm just going to pull it and buy a rebuild kit, its really weird though because it has like 0 shaft play and it spins fine when its not locked up but when I first break it free I can hear a noise that...
I found out what it was, well not exactly but here are my symptoms.. I noticed when I went to do another boost leak test that I went to spin the turbo and it was really hard to spin. I took a 10mm socket and broke it loose (at this point I figured it obviously wasn't getting proper lubrication)...
I have already replaced the O2 sensor, now I am working on the tune and fuel pressure.I fixed the running lean problem, it was something with one of the injectors. Loose connection or the connector wasn't fully seated. Now its running rich (Only a little) but my boost problem is back.
Last...
I will do another boost leak test but do you know of anything that could cause it to be that severe? Its literately sitting at -1 vacuum pressure when I am at full throttle.Ok, the boost is showing up now on my boost gauge. It says I'm getting like 10 which is not right at all for the 16g...
Car was not running lean before today, I have DSMLink V3 but I got a code today on the way home for a bad O2 sensor. I know for sure the car is running lean because it feels horrible and my wide band is reading (---) then to normal when I tap the gas but before it started running like garbage it...
Ohh, I didn't know that about the 5 step being bad for it. Good to know though, I'm thinking maybe I should just loosen all the nuts back up and then re-torque them with the dial torque wrench tomorrow to 95. Hopefully it works but if not I will definitely be going to get a composite instead...
I never said I did it in the wrong torquing sequence, I torqued it right I said I think my torque wrench might be off on the low side. The motor has rods and pistons and I don't plan on keeping the 16G forever either. I am eventually going to upgrade providing I get the money to do so. I admit I...
No I did not get the head or block resurfaced, I just took off the head, took the old gasket off, put the new gasket in its place, and put the head back on. The motor is still in the car. Oh and it previously had a MLS head gasket on before I put the FelPro gasket in its place. My car is also a...
I haven't been able to try it yet since my head gaskets leaking BUT I've read that it will give a 5% fuel efficiency increase and 40 torque. I also put the heat barrier gasket on it, the only bad part is I didn't figure out my MPG before I put it on :(
This is the car as it sits right now, the head gasket is leaking but I think its because of my crappy torque wrench not being able to torque to the right specification that I set it to. I put on the new Evo III 16G, the Cyclone intake manifold that I have had since I bought my crate motor for my...
I just recently installed new valve stem seals and revised lifters on my head because I was getting a little bit of white smoke on start-up and lifter tick. Since I was pretty much taking everything apart anyways, I figured I might as well change the head gasket since it had an unknown head...
I couldn't find it on there but I measured the toe and base. Along with took the pictures of the stamps, and the number marking.^ Toe
^ Base^ Exhaust cam marking (A with 6 dots)^ Intake cam marking (A with 2 dots)Other stamps (G and 2 1)
I took apart my head today to swap it out because I bought a new head gasket for my car and I took the valve cover off to find my cams are different on this car then my other heads cams... They have the letter G stamped on one side of the cam and the letter A stamped on the other side (Its like...
Well thanks for the help anyways, I'll probably either buy the install kit or just buy a new stock one. I really wanted to use the stock hard lines because it helps keep the cooler in place but if that's not really an option without ruining my new aftermarket oil cooler then its probably not...
Yeah I might just do that because I already have all the equipment to do it but I really think I should because I want to keep the hard lines, not go to SS lines. I just figured I would post to see if anyone else had already done it since I already have the brand new aftermarket oil cooler and...
