I tried vise grips, they haven't worked. I even tried to slot the ball and use a flat head with a socket... still no. I removed the...

    General Link/ECUflash conversion mapping

    I'm trying to make a conversion from ECMlink timing advance values to an ECUflash big map timing map. Now would a 6 degree advance (slider thing) at say 2000 rpm result in the timing advancing 6 degrees all the way across the possible load range??? Thanks in advance

    Engine mount eyebolt hole stripped

    Well I was on my way to getting finished with my head gasket job when I was torquing down the main engine mount eyebolt (timing side into the shock tower) when the bolt got 'loose' on me when I was nearing the proper 67-72 ft-lbs of torque. I pulled the bolt out to find that there were threads...

For starters I have 9.0:1 Manley pistons onto Manley H beam rods, bored .020 over. My ptw is .0035 as per Manley specs. Now...onto the issue:We clayed...

    Overheated and ran with no coolant... what's the damage?

    There is no easy way to put this, but I blew up my motor. At the very least I am expecting it to be a headgasket and hoping that is all it is. I had just gotten it running yesterday and everything was just fine with it until it started overheating in traffic. I figured it was due to running only...

    Stock seat knowledge needed for black leather manual to power seat swap

    Alright, so recently at U-pull-it I find the hidden gem, full black leather interior unmolested in a 1999 GS. I bought it all for under $100 (insane deal right?), but the drivers seat is a manual (no power). I have full grey leather interior on my gsx and want to keep my power driver's seat. How...

    What can I do about power steering bearing squeak?

    So I found out that the source of my squeak is from my power steering... And it's not a loose belt... Is there anything I can do to fix the ps itself like a rebuild or is my only option to buy a new one? Thanks

    Wheel hub separated from the bearing and NOT from the knuckle??? What do I do?

    So I discovered my wheel bearing was bad, and I used PB blaster on it and a slide hammer. However, the hub didn't separate from the knuckle, instead the bearing came apart so there is still the other half stuck in the knuckle...:ohdamn: What the hell should I try to do at this point? Should I do...

    Brands/places to avoid when buying a CV axle?

    squealing noise above 1k after water pump replacement

    it only starts to squeak after about 1.5k and is very noticeable at around 2k but starts to die out but remains there at just over 3k. I didn't replace my auto-tensioner or any pullery like the dampener because its not even 30k since the rebuild. What could cause this noise? I have had numerous...

    I got all my timing marks lined up easily even with the difficulty of fighting compression, but now i have a new problem with the special tool I bought from Jay racing. At first, it would not even go in correctly, but then i looked at the angle of most others and it turns out that I could not...

    How to remove the tensioner pulley bracket and AC belt for the timing belt

    It took me quite a while to figure this out and the Vfaqs and manuals don't do a good enough job of explaining and showing what this is and how to remove it. Actually, it is quite simple. The only bolts needed to remove are all 12mm socket size, and they can be reached with a small ratchet or...
