    Ok, ready for some more help with my clacking engine..

    ok thanks Foxfan88. would it help if i drained some coolant first then? and haha even the VC's took a BFH and a lot of prying and swearing just to come off (stupid cork gaskets with RTV!@#$*), so if you're warning me about this, i'm not looking forward to it! :rolleyes: and i was due for an...

    Ok, ready for some more help with my clacking engine..

    ok sorry for taking so long to reply. just in the middle of moving and some other stuff i needed to deal with first. but i checked every pushrod today, and they all looked fine to me. so now my next question is what do i need to do to remove the lower intake? pull the dizzy? fuel rails...

    can i re-use my upper to lower intake gasket?

    ok thanks. just wondering if after being compressed it was garbage or something maybe. it looks new other than that oil. no rtv on it or anything, i pretty much could have just breathed on it and it would have slid off... so i was wondering if it could be re-used. its maybe 2 years old, from the...

    stalling ?

    did you apply vacuum to the egr itself? i just stuck an extra silicon hose i had on it and sucked with my mouth to create vacuum, then sealed it with my finger, and it didn't hold vacuum. just out of curiosity, i did the same with the new one and it held vacuum. the diaphragm looked fine on the...

    can i re-use my upper to lower intake gasket?

    just wondering if i need to pick up a new one, or if this one is still ok? it looks pretty much brand new, except for the oil on the back runner holes, but just wondering if its still ok? and second, what would cause the oil on there?

    stalling ?

    before i even got to the part you wrote about your egr, thats what i was suspecting. i used to have the same problems with the car wanting to die when i was coming to a stop, or when rpms dropped quickly. ran the codes and got one for the egr. found out it wasn't holding vacuum, even after...

    oil pressure

    yup! i'm with the pump or bearings crowd. since it's rebuilt, that puts me on the pump crowd's side. only time i ever had oil pressure drop was when my bearings went. and i replaced them, and the oil pump (cheap insurance when doing a rebuild!!!) when it was rebuilt. no problems ever since.

    idle surges, gets choppy, then dies...HELP ME!!!

    Dump the codes! if you pull the codes you'd save yourself a lot of headaches and chasing problems you may not even have. on a side note, where has jrichker been? haven't seen anything from him in a long time!!! but yeah, usually, pull your codes and post them, and jrichker is a magical...

    How to measure for gas shocks for the hood

    how are they being installed? welded on? bolted on? i've had to figure out how to mount shocks a few times, making (large industrial) custom toolboxes. it's kinda tricky and hard to explain how i did it though... do you already have the shocks, cuz that makes it easier

    couple codes, no CE light

    when my EGR went, it started causing problems like surging idle, & car would die sometimes when i'd come to a stop. i noticed better fuel economy after replacing it also.

    what to set timing at

    haha. that made me lol... maybe cuz its 4am and i'm kinda out of it, but nonetheless. haha!. anyways, yes, definitely set your timing with the car running. you'll have to pull the spout first (little grey thingy), loosen the dizzy bolt, then just slowly turn the dizzy to adjust it up or down...
