I'm having a similar problem. I'll start it when it's warm, and the rpms will drop down to about 500, and really rough. I can give it some gas, and it will rev up, but it's still really rough. It'll settle back to normal after about a minute or so, but then runs rich for another couple...

I'll try and make it, although, my car won't compare to anyone's there...

HO-LY SHIT!

I can't believe the selfishness of some people...RIP

hahaha dont worry, I'm used to getting kinda chewed out like that, I have been known to think some retarded thoughts...no hard feelings

I've been trying to gather some info on the 1g-gte. I was wondering, how much does it weigh compared to the 7m? It sounds like a reliable engine, and could get as much power as a decently modded 7m, so if it weighed significantly less, it might be a good way to cut down on some weight on a...

i do have an electrical tester, and with the help of my dad and jetjock, did some tests on the switch. but it did not lead to anything definative. and i didnt scrape my contacts on concrete, but with a nail file. it seemed to help a little bit. i would have liked to just get brand new...

ok, thanks everyone for your help. i cleaned off both switches, and it works now. except for i messed something up, because on the passenger side switch, the window goes up when i hit down, and down when i press up. o well, at least it works

Ok, so I mangaed to get the switch apart. Two of the four contact points were a little black, so I cleaned them off with electrical cleaner. But after trying the switch with the motor again, it still does not work. Only down, not up. Any more ideas anyone? Thanks

i cant get the switch apart to clean it. it looks simple, theres two little hook thingies on it, but i cant get it off??

The switch seems fine. It does the same thing when I use the driver's side switch.

Nobody? Nothing?

Hey everybody, I'm having trouble with my window motor. One day, the passenger side window would not go back up after I had rolled it down. I had recently replaced the switch, so I assumed it was the motor. Since then, I have acquired a few different motors, and they did not work after I...

man i wish i had the money to just take the whole engine out and replace everything....

yesterday, after it cooled down again, i added more water, then started her back up. no, hissing or spraying or anything, but i did notice the straight turbo coolant hose leak a little bit. and coolant was dripping underneath the car both at the rear end of the engine and the front. ive...
