I'm trying to do a compression test but I don't know how to unplug the coil pack. I'm following this thread to do the compression test and it mentions a clip on the connector but I don't see anything. I tried just pulling and wiggling it but it isn't budging. What do?And just to clarify, this...

Has anyone ever heard of this before? I was taking the Talon out for a ride today and, thankfully, only got out to the street my house is on when I heard a loud *BANG*. Got out and the driver's rear looked like it had been significantly lowered. Since it was rolling fine, I slowly drove the car...

nelliott500 submitted a new DSM Profile :1990 Talon TSi AWDRead more about this vehicle here...

The more I dig into this car, the more I realize how much the previous owner half-assed a lot of things. I'm slowly cleaning up some dumb wiring.I'm trying to get my horns working again but I'm spiraling down this hole of confusion and I need a little clarification before I continue my...

This has been an ongoing issue so far. Here is what has been done so far:- trans rebuilt by Jack's - new Exedy stage 1 clutch - new ACT Streetlite flywheel - new OEM TOB - new OEM pivot ball - new OEM clutch fork - new OEM slave cylinder - swapped out master cylinder with a spare (no...

My rear defogger doesn't work. I've been troubleshooting things over the course of a few days. Switch is good, relay is good, timer works on bench, connections on rear windshield are good now (had to resolder the ground). I now know 100% what my problems is but not why it exists.The problem...

New clutch, new lightweight flywheel, rebuilt trans, new fork, new OEM TOB. Currently, the clutch grabs just a bit off the floor. I got under the dash to start adjusting and figured I would check to see if my pedal assembly is bad (yay 1G).I'm worried the assembly might be bad. Here's a quick...

Had my transmission rebuilt 1.1 by Jack's Transmissions. Just installed it last week. Finished up a bunch of final stuff throughout the week before starting it up. Took quite a few starts and a few breaks to get it running and idling normal. Once I got it running and warmed up a bit, I gave it a...

Hmm... something's not right about this old filter... that inlet was pretty tough to get off.Great. The inlet line is bent at a terrible angle that makes it impossible to put the inlet on and bracket the filter down. Also, the inlet doesn't seem to want to thread properly either. It was...

If I turn my HVAC on speeds 1-3, it works just fine. If I turn it to 4, it blows the fuse. Is there a relay for the HVAC?

Had a shopping cart together from last night with VR1 10w30 in it. When I checked the cart tonight, there was a $10 coupon available. Comes out to $3.90/quart. Just figured I'd share this with everyone else. Make sure you clip the coupon on the page.10w3020w50 has a $5 coupon making it...

I know it's magnetic (and that it's not very accurate anyway) but I'm curious as to how it works. The reason I ask is that I've noticed since I bought my car a few weeks ago, the oil pressure jumps to about 85% right after the car starts and just sits there. I assumed the gauge was just garbage...

My car leaks right there and I have absolutely no idea why. The seal around the windshield looks pretty good. How would water be getting in there?

Is this just as bright as they get? The previous owner installed white-face gauges (poorly as you can see from the speedo) but, unless I'm mistaken, they're not blocking any light from getting through. Is this just normal for 1G gauges? Is there anything I can replace the bulbs with to light...

I've wanted a DSM since I was 19. I tried to buy one at that point but my dad went with me on the test drive and told me I would kill myself with the car so I couldn't buy it. Unfortunately, he was temporarily loaning me the money so I couldn't argue.I'm 27 now. My main car is a '89 Prelude...
