    stuff to put in shampoo to make hair fall out

    well, i got pwnd a few days ago by my roommate and need to retaliate. just suffice it to say he sent a fake letter to my parents saying i had been kicked out of school for, without going into detail, sexual misconduct of one kind or another, and they had notified the police who currently have a...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    i tried just giving ground to 17 like you suggested and it did nothing, so i hooked it back up with power and it works half the time. and i didnt use an accessory because i want to be able to leave them on at the track with the car off between runs. tomorrow im going to rip out ALL my...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    well after testing with the meter im even more confused. with the switches turned on, both of the wires going to the pins on the ccrm are getting power regardless whether the ignition is on or off. but the low speed still only comes on with the ignition on and the high speed still only comes on...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i268/buddyf87/wiring.jpg and another paint drawing of how its all wired. i would say its a loose connection somewhere, but i triple checked everything and since they both work predictably i dont know wth it would do this. the high speed and nitrous switch were...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    ok, update and an odd problem. i rewired everything today to go to the ccrm (using fuses and relays). when i just hooked up a ground wire to the power terminal they didnt work at all, no lights or anything. so i hooked the power wires back up and moved the ground wires. heres where it gets...

    need some help and info

    well since this topic has been gone over 1000 times i doubt most of the really knowledgable guys will chime in. try the search. reliability will depend entirely on what parts you use and how well they go together, 16 cubes will not make a difference. from what ive read, the only reason id ever...

    need some help and info

    ok, i dont know much about putting together a stroker combo.. but, ive been reading here for about 2 years and i do know youre going to need a LOT bigger intake, tb, maf, and a huge custom grind cam to get numbers anywhere near 400. also, ive never seen anybody run 205's with such a small...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    the reason im running 2 speeds is ive read that turning the fan from off to high can cause problems. one last question, since the switch has 3 outlets, i just leave the power one unhooked? i didnt even know they made a switch with just ground and accessory outlets as described in pauls link...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    so basically just run a 12 gauge wire from the fan all the way to the switch and leave the 16 gauge ground i already have and it will maintain all functionality except no light on the switch, correct? could someone take a look here and tell me which i need if i decide the light is a must...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    correct, my power wires are straight to the battery. the switches have 3 prongs, top for power, middle for accessory, bottom for ground. so yes, i ran a ground wire from the switch. also, i just got my dad whos a mechanical engineer to explain it and he also got his friend (an EE) to do some...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    i just cut the wires coming off the fan and ran a 16 gauge wire into the cabin straight to the switch. not sure about the switches, i just got 2 from advance and hooked them up. this was my first time wiring anything so chances are i did do something stupid and unsafe. EDIT: so the general...

    wired up fan switches, almost caught the car on fire

    so i wired up 2 fan switches the other day (high and low speed), and today i was sitting with the car and switches off and notice a little smoke coming from around the plate i mounted them on. so i yanked it off and 2 of the wires were smoking with the insulation burning off. the odd thing is it...
