    Emissions Test.. How to pass?

    Thanks guys... Now I feel really F--cked! How the heck do you check codes?? And yes... I have driven with this light on since day one. The car originally came with no harness, ECU, and engine. I pieced all this stuff together. The other two engines I built were complete and everything worked out...

    Emissions Test.. How to pass?

    Thanks for the diagram. Very helpful!! Also, I was thinking of the O2 sensor placement. It is near the end of the header before the cat.

    Emissions Test.. How to pass?

    The engine is completely brand new rebuilt. Yes, brand new NGK plugs and wires. The only other thing I can think of is there are after market cams. I think they are Shrick Cams. They are definitly more responsive than stock. Also from day one, the engine light has come on after about 2 minutes...

    Emissions Test.. How to pass?

    My car won't pass Aircare. It fails on everything. I need to dial it cause it seems to be running rich, after I read the plugs. My cat is a high flow Magnaflow and I have a Pacesetter header with an O2 sensor which is new. The sad thing is this engine has 2500KM on it! The only thing that it...

    Metal Head Gasket for N/A?

    Metal Head Gasket A MUST!! I have built three NA two of which have MGH. The first had a stock HG. These inline six engines get extremely hot, and anything to help your engine is a positive step in the right direction. Turbo or not go with the MHG. Pay now, or pay later!! Those who say go with...

    Some help with the idle

    Try turning your air in.... and then out 5 and one half full turns. The air is located on your throttle body, if you did not know this already. Also check timing it could be too far advanced. I run @ 15 degress +. Be sure to short out your diagnosis box with a wire first before setting your...

    engine help!

    From the factory the yellow mark indicates the sensor should be at the top. Basically just keep it in the middle of the two slots on either side. When you put it back and it idled @ 2000 RPM this is a strong indication that the throttle sensor is toast. Of course you need two screws as well...

    My little project

    Actually, the NA oil pump is smaller in circumfence. The turbo one looks like the Star Trek Enterprise, and has a much larger head on it. Also the stock oil pan is a little bit deeper on the turbo models. I found this out when I built my first NA motor. Good luck with the project. Lots of...
