So I swapped my crappy mishimoto fans out for a nice Derale pusher and a FAL puller. I put the puller on the radiator fan side and the pusher on the AC side, due to packaging constraints.Both fans are 2 wire, so the OEM 4 wire high and lo wires on harness side are tied together on both sides...
Hello,
This is a "crosspost" with my post on the ECMlink forums, I thought I'd ask here as well to maximize exposure.I am having some issues with my car, it's a 1995 GSX with a basic 2.0 7 bolt, Wiseco 8.5:1 pistons/eagle rods and crank bottom end, (built by me - first engine I've ever built...
Hello, fellow DSMers. Perhaps you can help me.I just built a motor for my 2g, put it in, started it for a 20 minute first run and afterward I wanted to double check everything, make sure my T belt looked good, and front main and tensioner bolts weren't leaking, (they weren't. hooray.)When I...
i am putting together my front case, I have one that previously had the shafts deleted and I am putting them back in before installing. The oil pump side goes fine, but the front balance shaft binds up completely when I tighten it. I am assembling everything correctly, the seal is in all the way...
I am installing the rear balance shaft bearing to put my engine back together, and I had a hell of a time lining it up. I thought I had it dead on, but I guess my mark was off, I can only see what I’m doing with a little endoscope I have. Anyway, it’s misaligned by maybe 1/5 of the total oil...
So I am building my first motor, nothing special just Manley h beams and pistons, stock crank 450 horse goal kinda deal. I had acquired a used 7 bolt crank to use, and upon measuring it it’s a bit out of spec - #2-#4 rod journals are 1.7710 - 1.7712” which is it great, but the #1 rod journal is...
Hello everyone, hoping for some help here... so I had to tear the car down to fix a front main seal leak, it was running great before this, just saw some oil on the timing belt and bottom of the case. Anyway, I got it back together, and I was in a hurry, and I had the oil pump out of phase and...
Well I pulled the pan as part of some work and as I got it off I could hear these fellas rattling around in it. Any idea? Not sure if I should start pulling the block. The car ran smooth and sounded fine til it blew a head gasket between 2&3, I was just pulling the pan while I did the HG cuz i...
Trying to get car running well on SD, been battling some issues, I have a thread with all of that info. Drove to work to get some logs, car was ok but I've had a persistent misfire above 5k for a while. Thought it was the tune, others said it's my sparktech cop so I was gonna change it. Then...
So, I got this car from a guy who built it and got sick of it, I'm finally trying to get it right, (the car has mostly sat in a garage) and I'm not too sure where to start. the car had the aem wb and truboost hooked up, and boosts to about 18 psi in 3rd with the truboost on Hi. Buuut...He didn't...
hi guys, let me start by saying I have searched, and I’m just looking for clarification and advice here.
Setup: stock motor, 16g, mishimoto rad and fans, dsmlink.
I was driving on the highway, temps were good, I did a little pull up to 6k, cel came on, temp began climbing. I eased off and got...
