yes sir will do something to protect them.
91 F150; been meaning to address a leaking axle seal on the 8.8 rearend. This quickly turned into a surprising and more time consuming ordeal during disassembly. For those who have had an open diff apart....the floating bolt piece is what...-
Currently has a Walbro 535 in the fuel cell, I bought a Magnafuel 750 to go on it instead but I'm kinda leaning towards mechanical now.First outing won't be trying to make a lot of power so I might just leave the 535 for the time being.
I have been having some weird cooling issues. Link is reading sporadic temps near 220, kicking the fan relay on/off rapidly. This is while its 65 and cloudy driving on the freeway.I honestly cannot remember how old these coolant sensors are...-
- Journal update: I got my bottom end assembled finally but upon inspection the end result was a bitter sweet. My build was a base OEM standard bore with stock 2g Nippon pistons and rings coupled with beefier Scat rods, original 7 bolt polished...

Better protection for the oil hoses if the fittings on the cooler are facing up.
The other point I'd like to make is that the fuel global itself isn't very precise. IIRC, In the factory code it's only 8 bits and scaled in a way that makes the normal smaller injectors more accurate but as you get larger the jump from one...-
yeah thats why i went with the silicon in the first place not having to deal with the rtv

thats what i gotta tell myself everyday i dont know how others sell it i couldnt id just pay someone to finish it who knows what they are doing so i can finally enjoy it after so long i wouldnt be to mad i did 100% of the work still. i learned...
Mine just always had a small leak on the timing. Side of the pan. And then it just got worse to the point where it was making literal puddles. These would work pretty well if there was a steel core in them, I think. But I just went back to RTV...
Thank you, I’m just a little worried because there’s a lot of tiny plastic pieces that I have no idea where to put lol-
im surprised yours leaked right away i actually had a successful install and no leaks on it for awhile its been on there for probably 2 years til now when i got the excessive crank pressure. probably will just go rtv for now.
- last weekend i replaced evo 8 maf sensor and i disabled the SD setup and same issue . i can not rev above 3500-4000. i will do compression check. i did boost leak. it s leaking from TB but it s not huge car holds the air then it realease slowy...
Results. This is with the high output SPAL fan on (comes on at 175deg F) and it was also pretty warm outside so this is looking pretty good and will only be better once I extend the sensing wire to the battery...which is in the trunk. :rocks...-
I completed the Saturn alternator swap this weekend using a Remy remanufactured alternator from a 96 Saturn SC I got from RockAuto. I tested the old OEM alternator and it failed and I had this new one tested and it passed. I used the same Jay kit...

These gaskets. They look great fit great but they always leak. I tried one myself from a Solo guy here (Aaron something or another?) and mine leaked real bad. You tighten it down too much and you'll bend your oil pan flange it will never seal...

There could be very many things wrong with your setup. Do you still have access to the stock MAF or EVO MAF? Use that as a baseline and get the car to run with it on the stock MAP so that you can eliminate 1000 other things being the issue. Do a...
Oh so close... stick with it.
