Im getting another used ecu, will let you know how it goes; I feel like I am talking to myself here

Si I get 6 volts out of the ecu all the way to the solenoid; 6 volt is not 12 volts therefore the ecu is bad ??:ohdamn:

Hey I just check the voltage coming out of the pcm connector and pcm itself with the ignition in the on position and have found out that : Pcm pin voltage = 6.5 V Pcm plug voltage = 7.7 VI have already checked the operation andThe ecu/pcm is supposed to supply 12v out of the unit into the...

Right, maybe I will just buy regular evo3 02 housing. I know the previous owner had a turbonetics turbo with an external wastegate on it. I just couldnt find one and my stock one is not bolting on to the downpipe. :aha: UNLESS i got an evo3 o2 housing right now ? I got the thing from the...

Are there any o2 housing out there that will bolt down to by modified downpipe that fits the oriented flange. I am looking for o2 housing which I can use my external wastegate on. Does any one know of one. Someone mentioned using the punishment racing one.

I am not sure it there is supposed to be any washers installed since the nuts have a build in flange with grooves on the back to keep them from loosening, or at least that what is seems like. should I add on the locking washers on to that type of a wahser and are the oem nuts with flange used...

I am bolting on my exhaust manifold and I dont see any other hardware beside the nuts. I know that stud kits for exhaust manifolds do come with regular washers and locking washers. Should I have them installed since and is my exhaust supposed to have them from oem ?

Thank you I will try that, I was narrowing this down to bent valves which are not going up and giving extra slack for these to fall out with the cams installed. Because I can install a rocker on a lifter except it wont even stay there with the cams and all installed.

What are the steps to getting them on ? Do I need to compress the lifter down with the camshaft installed and just slide it on ? And if yes is it supposed to be loose or click in ? I have mine camshaft out and if I will just slide them on they are loose, hammering with a screwdriver dosent...

It isnt the fuel pressure regulator, this check engine has to do with something else I believe it is related to a vacuum leak

I am trying to fix this 2g gsx with a 6 bolt, First I have noticed that the harmonic balancer rubbed into the valve cover so badly that it came into contact with the timing belt, i also noticed a damaged timing belt where it had been rubbing off on something and loose roker arms only on the...

I have all of the rockers loose on my Intake cam and I believe the timing belt skipped and bent some valves when the harmonic balancer grinded into the valve cover. I was trying to assemble for compression test the but I cant install the rockers on top of the lifters. I am not sure if they are...

I connected mine at the coolant atf discharge line that goes from trans to cooler. You need to go to lowes or homedepo and get a t-fitting, two fittings that will fit the atf hose and go into the t fitting along with some maybe thread sealant-probably you wont need it, cut the line in half and...

Anyone tried it yet?I am planning on doing brakes soon, and there's just something wrong about visiting satan for rotors and brackets. Anyone know the estimated price? I cant get the rotors from autopart stores eather, If not maybe I could swap my mothers 07 outlander brakes while she's not...

First time I did it I had the same problem, top one came out ease but on the buttom one kinked the line allitle and gave up for the day. I tried agian persisting only to bend it even more. After that it was useless, I got a pipe flaring tool, fuel line,fuel line clamps and a Home depot adapter...

Just got it fixed, it was the 1g starter in my 2g being engaged all the time with the flywheel since it was longer. I rebuild my old 2g starter from the perfect parts that were in it . Thanks .

Great success!Just rebuild my starter from a 1g perfect condition starter and works beautifully. I swapped the brushes which were worn after 100k and the Bendix drive or starter drive. I noticed that it was loose and it did spin freely in the counterclockwise direction which explains why the...

Thanks for that link, I just did that yesterday. One thing that I found out is that the solenoid is not giving enough power under load, since when I bench tested it before and after cleaning it engages and spins. Once on the car it spins. I will take the solenoid and clean it inside. I see that...

My life's time is free,

I have had a problem with my starter where I probrarly overheated it when cranking for excessive amount of time when car was down. So it started doing the spinning noise with no cranking of it. Someone said that it is the starter clutch. Taking the starter apart I noticed that there is no clutch...

Could that be a manufatuers defect ? High temperatures-pressure, first you got to find out why it happened so that is does not happen to your current or future engine again, or what would be the purpose of the swap ?

Isn't Walbro 190 and 750cc enough for 14.5 psi on the TDO6sl2 18g ??

Anyone knows the temperature difference when switching from a watercooled 7bolt to a forward facing oil bracket, of course the increase in temp. this time. I am looking perhaps into this solution and then I would switch to a permacool bracket along with an external cooler.

I have used a JB weld temporary for sitting, and I keep on adding it since it steal leak around. I am in the process of getting a new bracket so far a forward facing bracket might work, and later a relocation permacool kit along with an external cooler. It would be nice to keep the oil cooler...

I didnt know that the cooler part of the bracket came off with a removal of the 22mm bolt. Anyone knows the torque rating on it I heard 20lbs-in??? I am considering a forward facing oil filter housing from :JNZ Tuning Anyone knows if I can just swap the water cooler part onto it? I wont...

Thank you for your replies, I think that I may go with an internal water housing.

Coolers have a build in solenoid that does not allow for flow untill the proper temperature is reached to aid in the start up. I understand that , but then what is the proper temperature range for oil ? As I said that by looking at the graphs when properly warmed up is 175deg to-200deg...

Thanks for the reply , Do you remember the actual temperature before and after ?

I am debating whether an external cooler is better when I would through a replacement of the oil filter housing. I was told that I wouldn't need it on a stock motor. Another user said that he had a drop of twenty degres. I understand that a perfect temperature would be between 175-200 f range...

I installed the fitting and it looks like that is not what is leaking but the oil sensor right above it. I checked before and it wasen't leaking from there and after new fitting the oil is coming from there-the housing is craked. So right now I will be replacing it with an 7bolt air cooled style...

Got it today Lov2Rallye, I will post my result on it as soon as possible

Could any damage occur when the car is beaing driven with them stuck? Sorry I used 10w-30 engine oil for what i wrote as a 5w-10 above

I had a new oil put in Full synthetic High mileage Mobil 1 10W=30, and a proline filter. I never used mobil's high mileage oil but that should have nothing to do with it. I am not able to run the car until it is fully warmed up since I'm leaking alittle bit of oil and the new fitting is coming...

listen to it in the back ground of this video. The car has been sitting for about 3 months. I changed the started on in to the proper that should work and did alot of other work like intalled and painted the valve cover, fuel line, turbo replacement. Now I start it and it sound like that coming...

Just as the dynatos explained, he's probobly right about the clutch or the torque converter, check to see if your car engages gears by moving the lever while parked,you should feel it. If your clutch start doing that and is at fault it, changind the fluid will most likely not help it from...

IT would be the transmission, When it happened in the escape , the trans clutch would slip into neutral for when going higher speed, and than the next day it would only work in reverse, crazy. Check howstuffworks.com and type in the automatic transmission. Maybe it is something else or...

Enjoy the turbo, and let me know if any boost spikes occur if you are connecting it at the BOV source.

They say, that if you flush a auto transmision with a machine your transmission will die soon, and I experianced that first hand on an Escape . Therefore if you have no record of the fluid being changed dont change it with the flashing machine! Best is to change the filter and fluid on these...

He has a 99 GST dont they already come with the 3 edition lifters, I have a 98 GST and I also experiance the lifter tick, then isthe tick wear related also as explained above? Not to hijack this thread but I experiance some noise from the valve train, and it is different, after replacing the...

I'm in. When ??

No .

I would also recoment to check the level of the fluid, and it has to be done with the transmission being warmed up. Add as if neccesary Mobil 1 ATF or mopar +4. Your end clutch will go and the car wont go into any gear, so be carefull as if that is the case you might get stuck and need towing...

I am ordering one right now, Thanks for the advice and I will let you guys know if that has stoped the leak. :thumb:

I have not used a tap, I just took the fitting off and installed the new one on. I did try the teflon tape, plumbing compound, and RTV that I will not as per the recomnedation. I inspected the threads on both of the mating surfaces and they look great and also I did not notice any cracks in the...

It leaks at the NPT side, I had teflon tape installed on the first time and it leaked, later I put a little bit of RTV on the threads and around, still leaked. I am now assuming that there might be something wrong with the fitting of npt, when I start it it drips oil from there. Would teflon...

I am leaking oil from the 4AN x 3/8" NPT fitting that connects the oil feed line at the turbo. I have used red rtv and it steal leaks only when the engine's running. I am thinking of buying a new fitting: (Keep in mind that this is also a new fitting that came with the line.) Slowboy Racing...

Do you get a CEL with the MR downpipe for not having a cat ?? Whether it is connected to an aftermarket catback or stock catback since the sensor is connected there. Thanks.

I am also interested in a wideband, so what widebands are compatible with DSMlink ? If it has a brain or output as a norrowband, can I use that output as a replacement for the second o2 sensor , so that I will not get a CEL if I run catless. Does the Megan Racing downpipe catless, would...

I have ordered the GT manifold and It looked good when it came. Shipping was fast and it came with all the hardware, except the two larger nuts were too big so I reused stock. The four bolts that came with it were meant as the turbo bolts but are the wrong pitch. The manifold came coated or...

Can anyone verify that the FP j pipe has a clearance issue with one of the fans?? I have been reading a post from two years ago, and I am not sure if the problem still persists with the j pipe .
