I drove the car to work earlier, and on the drive home, I noticed that the transmission was slipping. It wouldn't catch when I was giving it gas at low RPMs. I thought it was weird. Got home, parked the car.An hour ago, I had to leave to go...
@steve heres a new log... the wideband is staying engaged the whole time. I put in this gm style 4 bar to test the map(it could still be questionable), What vacuum should the car be seeing at cranking.If feels like it wants to start so bad it...- Aha!! There’s a really, really small leak at the flare joint to the slave.I had to have the system fully bled, and closed up, AND have a buddy pushing on the clutch pedal to see it.Small enough that it’s really hard to push fluid out, but...
- fixed the pump up problem, so the master is properly adjusted now, and still no joy.This is really wierd.

The wideband goes into warmup mode for some reason when cranking... i figured thats the reason.MaP was suggested by a friend so I have a spare im going to try.My fear is you might be right about mice. Itll be under dash if so.... let the fun...
Still just stacking parts. Havnt had a lot of time lately to work on my own cars, but the time will come. The o2 housing and waste gate have arrivedYou must be registered to see element.You must be registered to see element.-
For people who have bought in during the last 2 years, it's been kind of like an investment in the Australian Dollar, which has turned out pretty OK so far. Check it out - Peak USD to AUD buying power was in around January of 2025. Was pretty...-
Ah yeah I crimped them right up against both the diode and the resistor. Made it real easy to crimp. Just had to strip a bunch more then usual.
Check the hose to your MAP sensor and its wiring. It's not showing normal vacuum while you’re cranking.Peddling the throttle isn't going to help it start and I would think you’re almost 10ms IPW with those huge injectors even on E85 is a lot...
I think it wasn't showing for me because I had my preference set for US only and that is listed in China.I just ordered 2 for the hell of it. lol.I also got the new Keyless Entry Module in, going to work on it tomorrow and see what happens.- TuskeeTuner replied to the thread Resolved Is there a way to activate the 1G ABS pump and bleed each caliper?.
· 2 353Figured out the problem - there was ferrous "dust" on the two front ABS sensors. After removing it the car behaves normally. 
Nice.....its looks almost like my valve cover. I just have an fittings on mine and shaved the lines flat.When I got my transmission built I got 4 spider and its been great...cant complain.
Hey guys, figured I’d do a little update of what I’ve done the last few weeks which really isn’t much LOL, a couple weeks ago I decided to check my fuel filter element and I’m glad I did! I found the usual “goo” associated with e85.You must be...-
I'll comment on this one. I deleted a post of his recently. I sent him a msg even told him I didn't want to do it but I felt the info to be incorrect and I thought a correction would just be unfavorable. I will elaborate to moderators if...

Sick! Looks like a completely different car now! :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: :rocks: Still need to find some hanger to properly support the exhaust better under there. I installed a 3" muffler. It's quieter...-

pauleyman replied to the thread 2G Question! Is this timing or rod knock? And how can i find out.
· 28 1,373You can verify crank mark by manually checking piston position. That will tell you if the crank plate is on right. -
here is the log. I noticed when I tried to start on just the battery it was acting like it was having a hard time even with 12 volts spinning the motor. I put it on the jump box and it spun but still only stumbles.Hopefully you see something...
I see them now, they are right up to the diode. At first glance I thought you wrapped bare wire around the diode lead and called that good.
I'll get timing adjusted correctly and everything else and I'll come back with another log of it idling for awhile. Thanks !
