    Turbo Oil Line Nuts... WTF!?

    u can actually get to this bolt for the underside of the car if you have a bunch of 1/4" ratchet extensions, and a swivel. it is a lot easier to just take it off though.

    help, no start after replacing HG

    your timing is off. make sure you crank and cam gear timing marks are line up. and if you took the cam gears off make sure both the pins are in the middle holes on both the gear and the shaft itself.

    Weird idle

    well i seem to have fixed the problem, did some rewiring on my CPS (3 wires were frayed near the connector) swapped out coil packs as well as grounded it (was never grounded before but never had a problem. and i swapped out the AFM housing with one i got from a local junkyard. not sure...

    Weird idle

    First, thanks for your response. what type of leaks exactly are you talkin about? i've triple checked all the IC hoses, PCV hoses, vac lines. i only wiped the sensor off with a dry cloth (should i not have done this?) the only thing i didnt test yet is the wiring to the AFM, but i couldnt...

    it sputters trying to start, sometime it will start but struggle to run (very very low sputtering idle) the timing is correct, and the base timing is set on the CPS. its probably some type of fuel or spark problem. Chad: Try to take out the CSI and inspect/test it, also get that VSV in...

    Weird idle

    oh and when the RPMs drop real bad and the CEL comes on, some black smoke starts coming out the exhaust. the lex AFM housing had a small imperfection in the honeycomb, it was only 2 of the holes,but i straightened em out best i could. could this possibly cause the problem?

    Weird idle

    When the car is warming up it has a teeny high idle like its supossed to, to warm up. sometimes it will idle fine afterwards until randomly it will drop to 300 then bounce back to 500. it hovers around there for a bit but will keep fluctuating and sometimes die. however the car still pulls real...

    Quick sensor question: Pre-89 vs. 89+

    yes they will work, i have an 89 n/a with the engine/tranny from an 87 turbo. i was able to use the pre 89 on my car since it was an early 89 the plugs all fit (except ABS.) even if the plugs dont fit directly, if you're handy with a soldering gun and have some spare time you could make it...
