    PLEASE HELP Auto trans failure

    I didnt do the job, a very well respected shop did the install when i had it in for fp red upgrade so i would assume they took the necessary steps to ensure proper drivability. There is trans fluid on the dipstick but tough to say the level at which it is at. As i stated the fluid is still red...

    Im in the market for a new radiator and am pretty set on the Koyo rad. Ive read the previous post about them but they are pretty outdated.

    Oil pressure issue!!!

    So i did a BLT and found several leaks. My j pipe, BOV, and throttle body and BISS screw are all leaking air. Would it be more beneficial to rebuild my stock 2g throttle body or go for the 1g ecimulti manifold and 1g throttle body?

    Oil pressure issue!!!

    I kinda had a feeling about that i just wanted to make sure. My car does tend to lean out sometimes and rpms drop significantly but usually doesnt turn off, a/f usually catches itself and adds more fuel bringing my idle back to 900rpms. I do think i have an idle issues. When i start the car...

    oil light

    i am having a similar issue except mine only comes on when im at a complete stop. As soon as i accelerate the light goes away i think the wire on my sending unit is loose and/or going bad but it doesnt happen everytime i drive the car. Any thoughts?

    Local machine shops

    stripped stud hole on head. whats the best rout to take?

    the heli coil size will go to 10x1.25. stock studs are 8x1.25. you can pick up heli coils at any auto parts store. another route to go is a time sert which is easy as long as there is still some thread left to tap into.

    Is this an okay catch can?

    ok i got it. if im goin to run the can without a vaccum and just keep the filter is there possiblity of damaging the engine? i just rebuilt and am trying to get everything in order so i have no issues with the new engine.
  48. jmdst28

    Is this an okay catch can?

    ^ +1 mine only has 2 outlets on it one for the vc and one for the PCV valve. so i should run 1 hose to vc, 1 hose to PCV, remove filter and run a hose from intake pipe to can?
  49. jmdst28

    Is this an okay catch can?

    yes ive read that article before. i thought i had the correct setup running to my catchcan. so is my setup correct? i still cant come to a conclusion i just installed it and want to do it correctly.
