    Strange Liquid Sound Behind Dash

    If the heater core isnt leaking how could it be bad? Sounds more like lack of coolant and system isnt pressuirzed

    Strange Liquid Sound Behind Dash

    i know exactly what sound you are talking about. it sounds like water flowing in a fish tank filter. My toyota did this for like a year and then a put a new radiator cap on. I think maybe there was air in the system so once the water pump turned it was pushing the flow of water through the...

    Lost Power Brakes!

    yeah. napa sells every single line you need. Cut a peice off of every line you want to replace and bring it in to match up the size. They have the stuff on spools in the back and the stuff is pretty cheap. I would take off the upper intake if i was you and replace all those old lines. thats the...

    WooHoo! Finally a sweet DD!

    nice. Heres a thought for you. i think the car would look badass if you just took it for a cheap 300 dollar maaco paint job and got it painted black. and black the windows out too. Just like an unmarked cop car. Thats what i would do

    rear main seal

    i have only changed out to rear main seals before and have always used a tiny drill bit and made 2 small holes in the center of each side of the old gasket and screwed in small machine screws. there is metal in the gasket so the screws do bite. next, put 2 vice grips on each screw and pull with...

    89fox oil in intake manifold Antifreeze in TB

    I beleive the only way for oil to get into your intake is through the pcv port or the valve cover vent on the oil fill going to the tb. you didnt delete the tube going from the tb to valve cover did you. if you have an issue, its possible for alot of oil to get into your pcv. you got any pics...

    strut nuts on top of shock tower, how tight, how much spin

    no it spin a tad but it wont be able to keep up with the hammer. you will be amazed at how much more it tightens down. at this rate, every time you go over a bump you will here that loose strut.

    Lost Power Brakes!

    one of your vaccum lines came disconnected. probably the line that goes to your brake booster. check that line and check the vaccumm tree that is mounted on your firewall. You say you here a hissing and you lost your brakes. Your brake booster works off of vaccum so if the line came off or the...

    1.you have antifreez in your tb becuase your egr spacer to tb gasket is leaking. happens to anyone. i just put new gaskets on mine and mine has the same issue. for whatever reason, i did not tighten my tb bolts up tight enough. your gasket is prolly old. You might as well change your egr to...

    strut nuts on top of shock tower, how tight, how much spin

    hey bud, your not gonna be able to do it that way. you wont get it near tight enough becuase you have to compress the bushing. and will be near impossible to hold the rod from spinning while you attemtp to get it tight enough. you need an impact wrench. the rod wont spin with the impact wrench...

    Oil leak! (pic inside)

    I beleive the torque specs on the oil pan is 9 pounds. Sounds like you way over torqued. That will give you all kinds of headaches

    First Start up after Head and intake swap!

    how do you know your fpr is bad and causing your plugs to foul? Do you have a shrader valve mounted fuel psi gauge to verify this i hope? Just asking. usually a sign of a bad fpr is that you will have fuel spraying out of the vaccum port due to a bad diaphram but not causing excessive fuel pressure

    Look Whose car car i Found on Craigslist....

    not tryin to sound like a prick dude, but i fail to see what the big deal is that someone used a pic of someone elses car to sell something. People copy pics from the internet to use for other purposes all the time. Now if he was tryin to sell the car that was pictured and wasnt his, that would...

    ISSUES W/ 347

    yeah, set the tps first. I run about 39 psi and im a little rich at idle of course. I just rely on the computer to do its magic while driving. Im not having any eratic conditions while cruising or accelerating. Im thinking about having a chip burned during the winter sometimes to get rid of the...

    ISSUES W/ 347

    i run 14 degrees in mine. i have a similar setup. im runnin 10.5.1 compression 347 with 42 pound injectors. I have thought about bumping to 16. i wouldnt run 18. I have long tubes with flowmaster 40 mufflers so its kinda hard to hear any detonation.

    whats with the tears in the engine bay on the sides by the strut towers?

    i dont think it will do it again if you just weld em up. If you dont have them already, get some full length sub frame connectors installed. I just had maximum motorsport sbf's installed and the car feels as solid as a tank.
