That's what I thought, so I took it back. They checked it out and told me it was a bad sensor...

So I finally get my car back from the bhg getting soaked for more than I care to admit to after all said and done, and I notice the oil pressure doesn't work. so I take it back and the dude tells me the sender is bad and he'll need to hit me a couple hun to buy a new one and install it. I...

So the mechanic calls and tells me that he poured coolant into the top of all of the pistons and that # 2 and #5 all leaked out within a half an hour so I neede to rebuild the whole engine for $5K. He stated that I would burn a ton of oil and that he wouldn't warrantee his work if I didn't do...

I should probably have mentioned this includes resurfacing the head, new valve seals, a lot of cooling hoses, plugs fluids, and a 12 month warrentee. I paged back through the records of the car, and found that the head was rebuilt at 80,000 miles for $2100. So, I don't feel too bad now...

:: angry :: Is it stupid to go with oem head gasket tourqued to 75 lbs? I don't want to pay to pull the engine to deck the block. Am I getting hosed? This also includes plugs and a bunch of new hoses and gaskets etc...

Cruising to work and "BAM" the car shudders then suddenly loses power and barely runs. Fortunately I was just exiting the freeway, so I was able to limp it into a gas station. Huge billowing white steam, but I had no idea where it was coming from. It looked like it was coming out of the coil...

Around town and at lower speeds the car is very normal, but when I;m going 70-80 down this long hill on the freeway, when I hit the brakes to slow down, the car goes into a heavy shuddering and shaking that is kinda scary. I took it to a brake guy and he told me everything looks OK, but I don't...

lol, a lot goes wrong from 43 to 55 my friend, trust me, it ain't pretty. But, all has been completed, and she is bac k on the road. An immense thanks to you guys for the help in pinpointing the problem. It was an all day pain in the butt, but we are solid again. This site is great!

nah, way too much work for a sight challanged 55 year old. I got the hose out, and am going to my local NAPA for a replacement... I do believe this is the oiliest dirtiest area of this engine by all means! At least I now have a few more new cooling hoses for my DD

What is the heck is a hose back there for? I see it and it's split, but I am wondering how in the world I'm going to get to it.? It's behind the power sterring fluid reservoir, right above the rad hose going into the block. I really am beginning to wonder how in the world I'm going to get it...

Is there some hose or something behind the thermostat housing, or right below it? I took off hard the other day, only to hear a big gooosh, and see a big white mist behind the car as a bunch of water/coolant exited the vehicle in a hurry. I pulled her over and had her towed home. I took off the...

I had to pre-pay...:3d_frown:

A new one of these suckas cost me $200! Dang! I coulda bought one for $35 on ebay, but it was an 87. So I didn't feel like placing my cars health on a 20 year old plastic part. The thing broke right before I left on a 90 mile jaunt, fortunately right next to a gas station, I had enough stub...

yup, they don't like jz's in MKIII's here. If it wasn't born with it, fugettaboutit.

Is this considered a dirty word? A guy at work just inherited a 96 300SC that has a 2jz. I smoked him in my 91 stocker, but am wondering if people put turbo kits on these cars much. Here in California, I can't do much at all with my 7M, but thought maybe I could turbo up a 300SC Is this a...

Ya'll missed that there are 6 bidders, and it's up to a grand. That means there are at least 7 dumbasses on the planet...

I want to be there!
