    Bad Thermostat?

    Its not that hard to wire the fan up to a switch, you will need a Relay, Some Automotive Wire and a decent switch. I can look tonight on which relay and switch I am using as well as write up a little description on how to do it if you can not find anything someone already did up. :nice:

    Rear Main Seal Replacement

    I cant recall if the crank was scored but I know what you are thinking with that and the rear main seal. The Breather under the PCV valve is new yes. I will say I do not have any breathers on the valve covers other than the small tube coming off the Oil Fill could it be a possibility that I need...

    Rear Main Seal Replacement

    Very Tru Thats exactly what I thought and I find it strange other than the seal drying up on a new motor that it is leaking. How can I tell really? Oil Preasure when car is warm and running or what? I know all my hoses are good and my pcv valve is clean and still looks very new. I did do the...

    Rear Main Seal Replacement

    Pull the Engine or Pull the Tranny? What do you guys think is easier to replace the rear main seal. Also If the seal has just dried up a bit is their anything I can do to try to re-vitalize it back to life? I have when the car is running a slow drip and the engine does not even have 50 miles on...

    Safe Base Timing

    Bud .. With SPOUT disconnected you want to time it to 10* .. if you notice while the car is running if you plug the SPOUT back in .. your timing will advance to around 32*. Also if you keep that SPOUT out your timing will not ADVANCE what so ever it will stay at what ever you set the Base Timing...

    Alright cool I hope I can because I would love to leave as much of my motor assembled as possible when I pull it. Thanks :nice:

    Safe Base Timing

    I agree. Set base timing and then work your way up to around 12-14* if you want some extra pony's but remember 10* was set like that from the factory so you could run lower grades of pump gas. so if you go higher you will have to run 93+ octange. :nice:

    95 TPS Question

    Ya exactly what happends I just got a code scanner but have not yet pulled codes other than the KOEO tests which passed fine. If say I start the car let it run about 1 minutes or so after idling just fine the check engine light flashes about 4 times and then the idle rises up to that RPM range...

    The saga continues round 2

    Timing and Plugs Woah slow down your PCM ground is not a problem here .. If the car was running and has been having starting problems dont look at the PCM and point fingers so quickly. First off .. Take all your plugs out and clean them with a wire brush. I am positive they are going to be...

    95 TPS Question

    I had adjusted my TB's Set screw to get my new motor to idle a bit better but it seems like when the car finally gets to operating temp (180-190 degree's or so) the idle rises to around 1200 RPM so I took the Throttle body off and the IAC off and cleaned it (it was very dirty) put everything...
