    Couldn't help but notice

    its also getting to the point of old technology vs a newer car. better standard features. we have to do a HCI to catch up to what the stock GT's put out with just bolt ons. Gas prices went through the roof turning people away from gas guzzling sport cars. I think its a little bit of...

    data log question

    i do mine driving around under real life driving conditions. I ride the car alot easier than my friends drive changing load and shift points in the A/T. I find the car runs better when i log and drive the way i usually would. i've never had success free revving w/o load on the engine.

    I never unplugged my MAF with the car running. I removed it when i was changing the spark plugs. I have had a MAF die on me and it left me stranded sputtering in a parking lot. It's not the end of the world when your car is stockish, the car will run based off other variables set in the...

    i agree, but my car has no timing pointer to shoot my non-existent timing light at :) called the junkyard to get the part and they wont let it go because its part of the engine. and the after market ones are about 60-80 bucks... any ideas?

    it all came down to the old motor, the head gaskets were blown so to compensate over the weeks i was increasing the idle screw to keep the car running... when i trasfered it over to the new car i reset the tps, but never undid the idle screw to normal. Gas millage is alot better with new new...

    engine running rough

    Oil filler adapter? your talking about the tube going from the fill neck to the intake tube? worst case... If so that's not coolant should be oil vapor. If you have steam, i had alot of steam when i blew my head gaskets. It could also be a lower intake gasket. best case you have a leak...

    omgwtfbbq!!!!!!! GOT IT!@ I'm going fast again!!!! i had the idle screw so far cranked that i had to retard the timing to get it to idle down low... therefore stepping on the gas and the car not going because it was pulling timing. The higher than normal MAF voltage should have giving...

    Just got off the phone with a rep from comp cams. we went over all the hardware I used and how I installed the cam. He said everything thing checks out fine. He said the car is not advancing the timing enough to generate the load, which is what the problem has been. I'm going to recheck the...

    That is possible... i believe i triple checked the cam install... put everything dot to dot... 6 and 12 on the clock which the cam called for*** come to think of it thats what my e-cam called for... I bet this cam needed a different install... need to look it up. If i have to degree the cam...

    drill out the openings on your tps if you have a fox conversion, voltmeter check till you get your voltage down. Thats what i needed to do

    tps is set at .98 volts. tps is also hooked up to my wideband and a volt meter checked for any dead spots. Headers don't glow, checked wires at night for arcing, they are fine. Car barely accelerate... WOT is not possible, i don't believe our symptoms are the same.

    i replaced the entire ecu wiring harness, ran some tests and certain pins fail. in doing so the wiring to the spout and icm have been replaced. Ill pull the spark plug and turn the engine. ill double check the timing that way. i'll report back

    fuel is perfect and responsive to my tune, o2's work perfect. the symptom would be that of driving your car w/o the spout plugged in... ill know more tomorrow, i already pulled and sprayed it, i might just temp splice the wires together to rule out the plug
