due to my intercooler, i had to move my radiator overflow into the engine bay, taking up some of the battery space. To prevent having to relocate the battery, a guy at a shop suggested the braille battery, its like 11lbs. So, eventually I got the car running, but still had alot of electrical...

pack or can of white tuna (in spring water) and a bag of salad. boil up some eggs at the beginning of the week, they make quick snacks. chicken breasts are your friend. pre-cook like a bunch, chop them up and put them in serving size freezer bags, they nuke in the time it takes to shower. raw...

92teal: thanks, that helped! jetjock: i actually read that in one of your other posts. i did that one and the igniter ground. i am a little confused about the chaining them together with a single piece of cable. are there special ring terminals for 10awg?

will any bolt on the firewall work?

I was reading this thread: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76999 and saw that one of the grounds, the head to firewall, is missing on my car, or maybe I'm just not looking in the right place for it. Anyone have a picture of it? Or is there a place to find it in the TSRM?

i'm running them, they seem to work fine, driftmotion FTMFW!!!

Congratulations! You could survive for 1 minute, 41 seconds!

I'm confused as to where I should start looking. Should I start at the headlights and work my way up the harness? or should I start at the fuel pump? If I think the lighting system is the problem, that would be the logical place to start, right? Is there info in the TSRM that deals with...

Update. started the car today, checked the alternator, its good, fuel pressure is back to normal. The car ran like nothing ever happened, till i turned on the headlights. there was a quick spike in the afr to the mid 16's then back to normal.

I'm not sure if these problems are related. Yesterday, before I drove to school, I bumped up my fuel pressure a couple psi (last base setting was 38 psi with vaccum), to richen up my upper rpm range. Everything was ok, went to class, came back to the car and it wouldn't start cause of my...

I'm running 7lbs of boost, fuel pressure base at 32lbs with vac. Afr's are good (btw 11 and 12) up until WOT above 3000rpms, then it just goes flat 10. Before i switched to the Lex afm, i was having a problem with the wastegate door sticking shut, and i was hitting fuel cut. I've since fixed...

the o-ringing was done by my father, he's good like that. it was definitely not an easy task, but he says it should pay off. he and my cousin have o-ringed quite a few engines without problem. i'm going to have to wait till next week to check the compression. and i haven't retorqued the head...

I checked some of the other threads on white smoke, but none seemed like my problem. some background on the car: less than 1000 miles on built engine, o-ringed block, copper gasket, 680cc injectors (10.0-10.5 at WOT) so i'm on my way to the bank, from my job (maybe 2 miles). i hit 8lbs once...

thanks jet jock, i'm not sure how i missed it before, but i didn't even have the heater relay in the junction block. all better now

I'm trying to get my A/C to work, but for some reason there is no power getting to the 10amp A/C fuse in the passenger footwell. All the other plugs in the junction are seeing power, fuse is good, breaker is good. Climate control box checked out, blower resistor is good, blower works, but the...

i'll be there!

stock afm

ok, need more input. did a quick street tune, back out the AFM adjustment screw, and took her for a test drive. now i think i have a new problem: 3rd gear, 3/4 throttle, mid 4000rpms, 15psi on the boost gauge. my AFR's were steady at 10.2, but i don't think i should be hitting that much boost on...

usually mid-10's to low 11's

i'm having that same problem, i can't figure it out. someone said it might be the brake booster or a vacuum leak. someone else said it might be a bad ground. i changed all my vacuum hoses yesterday, and i still have the problem. i'm gonna have to test the booster and check all my grounds
