    is it missing or something else?

    You still didn't try my suggestion eah? Had the same problem mine is gone. You have a lot more air moving than you used too. Try it you'll like it! :D

    is it missing or something else?

    Try two things. Check your alternator output with everything on and if auto put it in drive with the emergency brake on. Mine read 13.2 volts when it should read 14-15. After changing out the voltage regulator (30-50 dollars) my output increased to 15.2 volts with everything on and in drive...

    Surge with idle???

    Turns out the motor was not getting enough Fuel pressure. After I installed an adjustable BBK FPR and increased the fuel pressure no more surge. Needed about 43 pounds to keep from surging and the lean/rich gauge is happy again. Put a new pressure gauge on and same pressure was read. I've...

    Painting my car, can anyone throw some pics at me?

    I'm planning on a change too if this motor is finished with me. I'm going with the MACH 1 Blue. Haven't decided on black accents like in my pics or to go with silver accents on the blue so that inside the doors, under the hood/trunk will match without getting them painted. I'm also still...

    Surge with idle???

    Well it wasn't the alternator, although it helped out with the DC power greatly. I read up and thought about putting my adjustable fuel pressure regulator on. I put it on tonight and so far it turns out the stock regulator was bad and the fuel pressure GAUGE was bad too giving false readings...

    Surge with idle???

    I think I searched out the problem through the forums. Ran the car at idle and voltage off charger and battery are fine. Put the car in drive with emergency brake on , lights on, AC on, stereo on and within a minute it started to surge and the voltage output dropped from 14.5 to 13.2, looks...

    Surge with idle???

    No. I haven't pulled the chip since it started doing it just before the chip was installed. The problem started after taking it for a drive and running very rough through all speeds on a quick drive to the store and back. I checked under the hood and one of the plug wires was burnt up on the...

    Surge with idle???

    I tried to increase the idle with the Idle control and the throttle plate in many different ways but the only thing that changed was an increase in surge strength rocking the car pretty heavy. With the idle up it also lingered longer on the run than just at idle. Can't figure it out but it...

    P-Head review

    The thing flat hauls with the cower cam and 1.7's. Just put a 70 TB on her a week ago and she now pulls great on the bottom and then the cam kicks in with my torque convertor at about 2500 and slaps you back in the seat until 5500 rpm. Still have a few issues as per my post earlier but over all...

    Surge with idle???

    I have been having problems with a idle surge lately. Changed all the plugs and wires, cap, rotor and still the same thing. A couple times the EEC sent codes out for a lean condition. Could it be the OEM FPR going out even with good pressure with vac off? Noticed the idle pressure seems to...

    Whats Wrong??????

    That was the first thing I did was go out and buy a new thermostat and a new cap. Same thing. I have the complete 95 set up on the motor. Do the water pumps flow a different way? I bought 91 head gaskets so does my 95 water pump flow in the reverse of 91's and would that mean the head...

    Whats Wrong??????

    Believe me when I say I filled it every way there is. I even ran it for about 15 minutes with the cap off and keeping water going into it but it bubbles and boils out pretty high like there is gas pressurizing the system. I'm thinking a crack some where in the block or a head. I am going to...

    Whats Wrong??????

    I removed the temp sensor when I filled it up and water came out of the hole. I plugged it back in and filled the neck up. Are all the bolts for the lower the same size? Would hooking the egr up backwards cause this? Would a bad water pump cause this, I bought a used one when I assembled it...

    Whats Wrong??????

    I let the car sit for a day before bolting up the upper and started her up with the same thing happening. I haven't tried the carb cleaner yet dumbo. I put rtv around the water ports too. As I said, there is no white smoke now.

    Whats Wrong??????

    I recently installed a 94/95 cobra upper and lower. On the testing run in it started overheating and blowing all the coollant out of the reserve. I tried every air bleeding method and ended up with white smoke out the exhaust. I Finally decided to remove the heads and change the head...
