Recirculate your BOV.

some problems that im having, well for starters my trannnie it wont go into gear for nuffin the car would be on and i cant step on the clutch but it wont ingage i cant slip it in, also if i shut the car off put it in first and try to crank it it wont start if anyone has any info that could be of any use that would be very much so appercaited.

Your clutch may not be completely disengaging. Bleed the system, and check pedal adjustment.

+1 for recirculating your blow off valve. Your car will run just that extra bit better with the right air/fuel mixture.

Nice car man and good luck getting your clutch bled, adjusted and working.
 
Dude nice ride. :thumb:
I had the same problem of the tranny not wanting to go into gear after the first time I replaced a slave cylinder on one of these cars. Properly bleeding the system fixed it right up though. Hopefully it will be simple fix like that for ya.
 
I love that color. It looks really clean, good find.

P.S. How is new york, new york the pacific northwest?
and how is that a 95 talon???
 
Dont need to recirculate the blow off valve. Just run AEM EMS with a IAT sensor and map sensor.

Umm I'm going say that is unnecessary. True, there are some ways that you can eliminate the MAS, but you should only vent if you are doing it properly. He should recirculate his bov because he is not running a translator/AEM/Ostrich or similar program, but there is no need for a standalone on his car now, since he doesn't really have any major mods.
 
i dont wanna sound like a complete newb but someone remind me, running a open bov enhances the sound of the bov what other advantages does this have or disadvantages? i think when you recirculate your bov the car rounds smoother and you have more horsepower . on my nissan that i owned prior if the bov was run open the car would sputter and when idle goes up it would die instantaneously.

thanks,
dave
 
DsmDave95, On my 98 gst it wouldn't idle correctly and, it would run super rich between shifts causing me to bogg. It also threw a check engine light and the car felt weak overall. As soon as I recirculated my ssqv, the car was definitely quicker and I even got "better" gas mileage. not to mention the c.e.l. was gone. Oh I almost forgot, my bov sounds awesome recirculated.

Please, never again reccomend someone get a $1200 engine management system that's notoriously finicky to tune just so someone can vent their blow off valve on a bolt-on car.:nono:
