ok john and josh i have hit a wall...

have the car running...but it wont rev over 3500rpm sounds like its misfiring(such as firing order wrong...)i changed the fuel filter triple checked the firing order...checked my plugs put the plugs from the old motor of the white car in(ran worse)...

when i rev it it will backfire on the way up...when i hit 3500rpm it sounds like a stutter box but more ghetto...

any ideas?

Ya, take the car to Autozone and have them read the codes. That will tell you whats wrong right away. Why did the wing place close?
 
hahaha i dont trust the car that far...ill go to dorans as it is down the street from me pretty much...the car still needs a battery it wont start like a second after i have it jumped...
 
u guys happen to know the price on a coil pack...and what years can i use...90 wont work...
 
Why don't you just get a 91? Then you know for sure it will work :thumb: You need to get the car running so you can race everyone.
 
me and justin are gonna go scope out pick and pull tomorrow...and im gonna get a battery from my work...

so john how exactly did u get the diagnostic port off my car? is it cut?
dont know anything about that. its news to me. simple fix though.
 
i checked it out john it is cut off completly...oh well i have mine off my blue car so i cut it off...my only problem is that one has 6 wires and the other has 5 wtf? oh well im gonna see about getting a 91 port off this 91 at my work...its a n/a but will be the same...wait its a 90 i couldnt use the coil pack...dammn...

man i cant figure this shit out john...i have tried it all...justin gave me a CAS to see if it helps still doesnt...changed my MAS and it didnt help...short of a coil pack i think it is everythiong that could cause it...i dont think there are any massive air leaks...

LOL

Normally I would but I don't think the GSX will make it in its current condition. :(
 
Wow, it's been a while...

Ryan, are you back for good?

Do you guys still street race, or have you grown out of the "scene"?
