    Engine ECU Question

    Someone posted this on Facebook the other day, still ran with an idle surge.. Imagine paying the stupid asking prices for a " factory sealed" one and cracking it open to find that lol.

    Engine ECU Question

    There easy to find, its just people think there gold plated cores and hoard them/ buy up any reasonably priced ones to flip, these things are now over 33yrs old the life cycle of the capacitors is over. They all need service at this point.

    Black Jack: Vibration diagnostics. Not making foxtoberfest

    Neutral vibration my best guess would be the cross member just barely making contact with the chassis, carrying the harmonics right to the floor, mine you could kind of feel it coming from the tunnel/ floor area. The t56 is pretty damn tight in a fox tunnel so I would definitely check...

    Black Jack: Vibration diagnostics. Not making foxtoberfest

    I only skimmed the info but it started after clutch and or the work they did welding up the torque boxes and D/S loop, I'd expect its possible it changed the angles just enough. like the tko, the t56 doesnt share the same mounting pad height as a t5 so shimming is pretty important. I would look...

    Black Jack: Vibration diagnostics. Not making foxtoberfest

    Your not moving it ton, and a screw jack might work best, disconnect the trans mounts and do it with it in the air, it stresses the input shaft pre load more than anything as the motor mounts will absorb most of the movement and let the engine move a bit. with mine and the old HPM cross member...

    Black Jack: Vibration diagnostics. Not making foxtoberfest

    If it still does it afterwards, try raising and lowering the trans in small amounts with a jack while its running, I had a nasty vibration years back that was from an HPM cross member throwing the angle out of wack on my 3550, shimming the mount height eventually fixed it.

    $100k?

    Nope, over paid for the car on hype, then over paid an influencer to bolt it together while he used it for content to make money off lol. Break down parts vs labor would be interesting, parts selection shows its check writer build. that said many parts prices now are down right retarded...

    Kind of a unique problem

    Wd40 , gas or diesel.... Test on the areas where the wing was first, not a fun job. if it was real automotive paint and they didn't skuff it an air nozzle can help delamination, but spray bomb is all ways a pita. Chances are your going to find spots where the stock paint isn't in as good...

    Engine ECU Question

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Be0PdKuJVOg&xstg=CAMSEBUJ_b-oH-PhF0yjBgb_zzE%3D That's the only place I'd send one out to if I couldn't fix it my self ... I'd bet many would say that one was not repairable, and no generic we replaced components that don't even exist on an eec IV board.

    Engine ECU Question

    Engine ECU Question

    Buy a spare off local facebook, don't pay eBay prices, three letter catch codes really don't matter to much vs matching auto to auto and 5spd to 5spd.. Rebuild it or send it out. Only one I would send one to is keyworks, too many others replace a few things and gives everyone the same canned...
