Well as i just learned the other day, you can max out your lex AFM's. I took special notice to it today knowing i had a persistant acceleration problem still but seemed to be reading ok. Via SAFCII i monitored it as it climbed past 1350Hz at only 11-12PSI or so. Someone mentioned there's...

Just that, does polarity matter?? I have a constant bogging, jerking feel in the cars acceleration. I found 4 of the injectors were switched up but the bogging/jerking still remains. If it does....what color wires go where?

Just that, i get lots of wheel hop even in wet conditions! My friend told me its really bad for the car, i had no idea. What do i have to do to stop this?? FYI i searched and searched and couldn't find anything productive/helpful

I'd really like to get rid of the Lex afm. It flows enough but accuracy is always a concern and also its size is limiting air filter choices. I already have SAFCII so i don't need its tuning functions, so is there simply an adapter of some kind that i could use a GM MAF and hook it directly to...

I have an acceleration problem, i thought maybe since i have RC550's on the car they may have been rewired wrong but i don't know which colors go to which injector and which are grounds to double check it. Thanks for any info. Edit: found it thanks for the leads to finding it 1 & 4 are the...

Well here are a couple, i found one and Turbowarrior found the other Vid 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eAW9sREToE Vid 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO1q6CxTCkY <---appears to be last race FTW! Post up others as you find em and ill put them up here on this first post for...

This is kind of a continuation of my other thread "life expectancy of coil packs". i felt it might need a new one. Basically i did the coil pack check according to TSRM, my results :I did the resistance check which resulted in .5-.6OHMS - good I did continuity test and all tested...

Well i have acceleration problems...it pulls damn hard and will take a stang anyday but acceleration is not smooth. I had a leaky EGR and just yesterday blocked it off. Still have the problem but not as bad. I have original coil packs from my '88 with 170K miles on them. I was leaning towards...

Well i finallly fixed my EGR and just blocked it off. However what seems like subtle misfire, slight hesitation throughout the RPM band. Its on and off, basically no smooth flowing acceleration. Removing the EGR helped alot cause i lost 4PSI of boost through it but can't figure this one out...

I'm reading up on bypassing the J-tube. Everyone keeps saying running another hose to the hard line, but instead couldn't you simply get a brass 2Xmale adapter from lowes and connect the two hoses already connected to the j-tube? Isn't that other hose connected to the hard line already?

Well, i'm in need of some money. I still havn't been able to afford books yet mainly since i can't sell my other car. So now i need to look into other options. I've been considering school loans payable after school is over and since there are so many out there i was wondering if anybody has...

I just want to be sure before i cut up my EGR to make block off plates that a bad VSV could not somehow cause the EGR to leak air during a boost test while engine is turned off. I know VSV is electronically controlled but i know they get dirty/stuck sometimes and i want to make sure it wouldn't...

I was curious how difficult it should be to get into gear. I drove newer manual cars and find putting the car into gear position is quite easy, like you could push it in with one finger. I find w/my 5spd its quite difficult. Sometimes its easy and smooth, most times moderate (not able to push in...

My EGR is shot, its causing me quite a few problems especially with acceleration. I was thinking about removing it but only temporarily so i don't want to remove things like charcaol canister and EGR cooler and such along with it. So my question is, what to do with this vacuum lines? And yes...

My EGR leaks a lot. Causes me high idle and very choppy acceleration. You can't really repair as far as i know (let me know if you can). So my question is, if i got a replacement (used, new is too much$$) do the EGR's tend to leak when you start pushing the boost levels over 11PSI or do they...

Alright, i got my 'new' switches in the mail a week or so back. I installed them and worked great short of the fact my 88faceplate won't work on the driver side now. After a week or so the passenger window button (on the driver side switch) works only 25% of the time when puttuing the window...

I was feeling around tonight to guage how much of a PITA removing the EGR was going to be. I can't see in so i could only feel around. I see the two bolts connected to the intake plenum, and from what i could feel i found 2 nuts on the side the EGR connects to the heads. Besides obvious vacuum...

Just curious if i was the only one around here @WVU or not...i know there used to be a red MKIII around but havn't seen it this year yet...
