Long story short. Last night I was driving. Car stalled and wouldn't start. Cranked fine but wouldn't start. Sounds the same as when you pull the engine fuse to relieve fuel pressure. The problem is my afpr still said I had like 40psi. For some reason I still think its fuel. My question is when...

For those of us with an aftermarket transmission temp gauge, what temps are you seeing regularly? Whats the hottest you have seen?I have my temp sensor mounted post cooler so if you have one, post where it is located as Im sure temperatures will change relative to location.

I am battling a sticking caliper issue. I replaced the caliper with another used one and the caliper is still stuck. I removed the caliper (which was seized on the rotor) and I pumped the brakes to see what the calipers were actually doing. The attached photo shows only one piston coming out...

My damn car is still throwing this knock sensor circuit code and I cant find any information on the damn thing. Its like no one truly knows how the knock sensor works. From the information Ive gathered, the knock sensor has 2 wires. One is grounded the other is a signal wire back to pin 78...

I know one side of the knock sensor goes directly to pin 78 but where does the other wire come from/ go. The other wire is also connected to the shield internally correct?:hmm:

Alright I need to restart. This is my old thread if you want some background but I need some fresh info and some more insight. I drew a picture just to show where I am at, at this point.One of my main questions is where to go from here. The knock sensor is new but there is no continuity...

I am getting sick and tired of my position. I am a younger guy and this is my first job out of school. Now before everyone goes "oh brother", I just want to hear your guys opinion on keeping a job versus dropping it. I constantly read about people who are unable to find jobs saying they will...

I dont know much about how the knock sensor works and the more I read the more confusing it gets (I do know what its for.) Anyways, I am getting a knock sensor circuit malfuntion (dtc 0325) so I disconnected my sensor today and took some pictures.Is this what is causing my issue? Is this...

I was testing my CAS the other day and the cranking voltage checked out but my idle voltage was between 2.3-2.7. According to what Ive read, the voltage is supposed to be .5-2.0V. Is this correct for the 95-96 style CAS?

Hey guys, My car is acting up again as usual and now its keeping me from work. Initially when it warmed up to a certain temperature, it would start jerking (fluctuating between accel and decel) when I was cruising at ~2200 rpm constant throttle. Now it seems like when I start it up, it just...

I can connect to my ecmlink fine initially. I can take a log and record for any duration. As soon as I stop stream or capture. Ecm will disconnect, try to reconnect automatically and fail. I will not be able to connect again untill I turn off the car completely and unplug the usb port...

So I've never heard of this problem so I'm a little confused. When I'm driving home from work sometimes( happened first time yesterday). I'll be cruising around 2600-3000 rpm and my car will randomly start to jolt and my a/f ratios will start to go crazy. Then it either returns to normal or...

Does anyone know what size the male fitting is that goes to your coolant overflow tank located on the thermostat housing? Thanks.

Just would like to know. Does not have to be a dsm or turbo or supercar..... but it can be. Mine is probably still around stock till I up the boost :) sooooo ~220 for now

Hello guys. Im at the point where I bought almost all the basic bolt ons and Im wondering what will limit my psi next. From intake to exhaust Custom 3in CAI with ebay filter 16g Ported exhaust Hallman Boost controller Vr Speed short route intercooler 1g Bov Slight crush/ gerage door Blow...

I am installing mine right now and they seem to slide on pretty easy. I didnt need to use a socket or anything to get them in. They came in the felpro gasket set from dsmgraveyard.

I just got my wideband put in recently and I gave it a good idle/cruise tune. I was wondering, if my car isnt running rich, why is my mileage bad? I have 14.7 idle. My cruise jumps around 14.6 avg.(low and high 14s) and I get around 180miles to 12 gallonsI have noticed that the car does go...

When tapping your transmission for a temp gauge sender , you can either drill and tap the pan or tap the rubber lines going in or out of the cooler ( if its external) but why is it recommended that you tap the return line from the cooler? (automatic)

Im wondering if the 2g fwd right cv axel will work on the 2g awd?

Id like to see some dsms run. I wont be racing this year but its a good time.http://www.flashlightdrags.com/ Friday 23rd stats at around 4:30 goes till dark. Be there.

Hey guys, I was wondering what sits lower, a 2ga talon or a 2gb eclipse. Right now my car isnt lowered but the bumper is only about 5 inches off the ground. Id like to throw my tokico blues on but the roads in Pa make me think otherwise. Does the 2gb bumper sit a little higher then the 2ga...

So I am currently putting my timing cover back on my engine after a head up rebuild and I cant figure out what this large bolt hole is under the cams by the 95 casHere is a pic. Its not mine but you can see the hole bottom left of the cas

Just a question about concepts. We all know a drifter would lose pretty bad in a road race, so why is it the common technique in rally?

So during the fall, i started getting extremely high heats. I narrowed it down to my hg.... Now the cool thing about the hg, is when you are replacing it, you might as well replace everything else!!! Now Im poor as shit, and trying to get my budget build together consisting of a head up gasket...

I got one of my finals tomorrow morning at 9. I hate this shit. Ive never had so much trouble getting the work right... This is for my Mechanical Measurements 2 class. Im graduating in the spring so maybe Ill finally have so money to throw at a project.

So after replacing almost everything in my coolant system, I limited it down to the headgasket (overheating under load).So lets start the listOem headgasket Intake mani gasket exhaust mani gasket lifters valve stem seals<- smoking almost happy to replace. All oem belts What else...

Alright, charcoal questions are getting old. But I was removing my charcoal canister today. And I thought what I had was the venting fuel line (red), going into a one way filter (blue), venting under my car (yellow). But then later on when I was looking around I found (green). 1) Is red line...

Im having overheating problems. While my engine is under load my temps shoot up to 240+. If I stop, turn of my engine (both fans on), and sit for about 20 seconds, when I turn on my engine the temps drop back down to 203. Another thing I noticed, I have one of those pressure release tabs on my...

Does dsmlink(ecmlink) use the same sensor as the coolant temperature gauge or different?

SO my 1g bov started to flutter after I installed a gm maf on the upper ic right before the tb.. I really dont know why. At first I thought it was because my vacuum hose was to short and maybe it was kinking so I replaced it with another smaller ID one that was longer. Didnt fix it, then I...

So today I put in a new knock sensor, and a new tstat w/gasket. I then refilled the system and went for a drive. The ride there wasnt to bad.. My knock sensor always reads a solid 3.2 when hitting the throttle to hard so I think its misreading and Im throwing a knock sensor dtc that I dont get...

Shame on me, anyways. Its about time for me to start modding my fuel system( did things a little backwards). Money is an issue but Im also the type of person that doesnt like buying things twice. My first question is, what is the current weakest link in our fuel system? I have boost creep and I...

So when ever I let off the boost (not while boosting) I get a bov fluttering. (could be called compression surge whatever I dont care). I read up and many say that its not damaging if its only happening when you let off the throttle but its a big problem if it happens under boost. Anyways, I...

I didnt mean to post this sorry. But for anyone that knows dsmlink tuninghttp://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/log-file-advice/375978-first-log-ever.html

Well I got ecmlink v3 with gm maf. First off, after install, I tried to take my car for a spin around the block, and it wouldnt accelerate when I pushed the pedal, I was limited to about 2k rpm. It felt similar to when I hadnt pluged in my maf previously on accident before ecm install. I did...

So tomorrow Im going to buy my ecmlink v3 with gm maf setup included used. I will also be spending the day working with my buddy on his 1g at his house which is 1.5 hours away from my house. Do you guys think its ok for me to install my new setup while Im there or you think I should wait to get...

Yeah I know what ECM link is and Im going to be buying it this weekend USED. So my question is is ecmlink a cd? A download? I understand you need a username and password but whats stopping people from giving it to their friends to install as well? Just wanna make sure Im getting what I pay...

So lets see what I got. BTW I have no cat, rear 02 is out.p0141 : H02s12 heater condition (Heated oxygen sensor -Bank1 sensor 2)p0136 : h02s12 circuit condition (heated oxygen sensor bank 1 sensor 2)p0170: Fuel trim Bank onep0100 : MAP / BARO or MAF / Vaf sensor condition...

Alright, I moved an aftermarket overflow tank behind where my smic used to be. Its a pretty popular spot due to its hidden factor. Do you guys think that its important to think about elevation when considering relocation. I almost think ideally that the reservoir should be located higher then...

Anyone else being hit hard by this econ.

I know this question has been asked many times but this is a 96 and the "E" is not isolated like most pics/ people explained. I know its just the case and the ecu might have been swapped but this car has been unmodified so far so I will pretty much base it on the case till I open it. This is...

Im currently in the middle of installing my short route fmic onto my auto talon and Im hitting a small speed bump, the A/t cooler. Do you guys think its alright for me to rotate the cooler so that the inlet and outlet are facing the ground instead of facing the passenger side? Will the pressure...

I have a 96 talon and Im using this guide to take off my front bumper 2G Bumper Removal 98 Eclipse RSNow I have completed removing all these bolts but it seems like my foglight are holding my bumper on. Should i remove the front of the fog lights or behind the fog lights or how do I work...

So Ive been searching around the site and dsmtuners doesnt seem talk about the topic very much (maybe for obvious reasons). Now I got the idea from the "who is dr. turbo" thread but Im sure hes not the first to do it in a dsm. Im interested in doing this mod, removing the rear speakers and...

Alright, Im kinda in love with the front bumper layout of the new g8 and Im trying to visualize the top grill cutouts on my 2g talon for higher airflow to my new fmic. How do you guys think it would turn out? Someone think they could ps me a pic? Any 96 talon style bumper would do. Here's a good...

So Im swapping to a 14b and moving my feedline to the head. To plug the oil filter housing I need a 3/8th BSP plug Is this the same thing or different? 3/8" PIPE PLUG: BoneHead Performance

Alright I know posts with this exact same topic have come up before, and i know the only two things that you NEED are a jpipe and oil feed line. Im gonna buy my line soon but my question is how long should the line be and with what connectors on each side? Straight or 90 bent or both? Im pretty...
