Any issue ive had with the boost gauge is always directly linked to a vaccume leak or similar somewhere, I would do a pressure test. And have you ruled out a faulty gauge if possible apply pressure directly to gauge and see if you get a reading. I'm assuming the brakes are working? Does the...
Yes, the oil lose is concerning hopefully its nothing. Go with what the_dsmg says check your coolant to make sure it didn't warp anything on the head. I have done countless timing belts/water pumps this is one of the easier ones to do. Just have patients and be sure like previously said to...
This is a 2g vacuum diagram it dose not show the hose you asked about but you and gmain are right from the factory the hose goes from the crankcase to the intake tube for the turbo. I would do what your doing. Go from the intake tube and trace it with your hand and see if you can tell where it...
Hi, Mike from Mentor, 90 talon... Always looking to meet up and/or cruise and meet fellow DSMers. Willing to help out too. Hope you figure out your problem Dave. GRAVEDIGGER's right start with the o2 sensors and then see where your at. Process of elimination before jumping to unneeded conclusions.
Hey, I'm in mentor/ North east ohio always looking for fellow dsm'ers. We seem few and far between around here. At Thompson almost every wed. Throughout the summer. Feel free to Contact me for get togethers.
Thanks for the help issues been resolved.The Insulator on the fuel pumps power connection through the pump mounting plate had worn through. This was causing a short to the tank. Put in new bolt with seal, good as new.
Yes, thanks for the concern I understand this. I'll keep the names to myself. I come from a family of technicians and have been working on cars/engines and electronics since before I could ride a bike. So I know the dangers and practice proper safety in everything I do. If i didn't know...
Yeah thats correct about the wires. That was my thought process also. I checked the pump and relay grounds their good the car will start and run fine (so pump is grounding somewhere?) without the sender conector pluged in. After I'm done checking grounds I'm gonna pull pump and see if it's...
1990 Eagle Talon TSi fwd.So a few weeks ago i left a buddy's house and barely made it home. When i pulled in, smoke had surrounded car and started to fill cabin. I was able to trace the source down to fuel pump wiring harness. (melted mess) Just happened outta the blue.Figured i had a short...
Thumbs up, If you replace axles it's best to use oem. After market ones sometimes have incorrect ring locks wich causes them to get stuck had this experience with one trans just about knocked the car off the lift trying to get it out. Had to cut boot to get it out.
General rule of thumb for Awd is to keep all the wheels the same I no different diameter tires are not a good idea because different size tires rotate at different rates wich causes uneven wear and possibly even binding of gears. I don't know if the width would affect the same way. Two will...
Yeah, the FP green will get you too 400 no doubt. Holset and Garrett have a few options as well. Look around for what fits your build budget best, it's hard to say what turbo will do best for a specific application. But with your supporting mods and a good tune there are quite a few that will...
Aftermarket Stainless o2 housings are smoother usually bigger and will outflow stock o2 housings. Open dump is simply using a modified o2 housing to quickly dump your waste gases outside, Instead of recirculating them back into your exhaust, when you reach full boost. There's alot of posts about...
Thumbs up, sounds awsome.n/a power is hard with these engines without dumping in a ton of money. I'd say basics will be your best bet let it breathe the best it can and clean and port as much as possible.
I've got 90 talon with factory body kit and 94 eclipse with shaved body kit have gotten comments on both about 50/50 on likes just keep in mind there will be about 16 or so holes to fill from the brackets on hatch and sides after removal.
Make sure if you tape you run over all seems lightly with a sharp razor blade will Lessen the chance of unwanted peeling off of plastic dip because it stuck to your tape.
Sounds like your on the right path. Congrats on the clean dsm, should make matinene easier. Any car is going to have some issues after sitting for some length of time. This should help if your still having idle issues http://www.dsm.org/how-tos/tttt/tttt3.html however your matinene should solve...
Prep,prep,prep,clean,clean,clean...the most important part of a good paint job is popper prep. Sand smooth not all the way down to metal everywhere and clean as much in between sanding and before u paint as possible. Colder weather can make drying times take longer but patience will help. A tip...
That is the model number. I'm not aware of a 5252re the turbo I mentioned is part number 6052re. It may be a older model or may have had a new compressor housing put on for some reason and information was transferred wrong. It looks like a precision turbo though only other way I can think of to...
Best bet is going to be new batt. Then like said by gus, go to your nearest Parts store and let them check out your alternator. As it is the most likely cause. But if it only happens when u turn on your heat/ blower there may be a electrical short in your heater/blower motor wiring somewhere...
That should be a precision sc60 sport compact ball bearing turbo good for 600 hp max. Here is a link with a list of precision turbos- http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/precision-turbo/turbochargers.html hope this helps.
Yeah, check valve is necessary or you run the risk of a mess to clean up later boost pressure will seep out wherever it can pushing oil with it. The ones mentioned in Calans thread are cheap and extremely effective.
