Thats pretty close;) Because the CEMF is not produced by the starter motor. Its really a hard thing to think about. The way I look at it is a starter uses 'X' watts no matter what. So if volts go down, amps have to go up=heat.

Those are some good pictures IJ. I got another question that kinda goes with this thread. Do you know why Group 'A' MKIII's used GE blocks /w forged internals? No oil squirters right? Did they use any knock sensors at all?

Good Man IJ:thumbup:Thanks. So much for my dreams on putting forged internals in my 86.5 when the turbo finally pops SOMETHING.

GTE blocks have 2 knock sensors, GE's only have 1. GTE block has a turbo oil drain, GE's do not. Now I got a couple questions haha, Are the Post 89 blocks actually stronger? Are all the cranks(6M & 7M) forged?

I'm not sure what to tell you man. Don't know if I can provide much more help from here,(If I've been helping at all:icon_conf) I'll keep an eye out though. Keep us updated:)

Dunno man..Good luck.

More importantly... did you fix this issue, or are you still driving all over the road???

Just go buy a new set from a parts store. I paid like 17 bucks each for new onss. There a little different the OEM. But work perdect.

Fix your head gasket, or you'll be doing more than that. I'm sure once its all bck together you'll have some other issues to deal with. And of course codes are the first on the list of troubleshooting.

Stock boost pressure is in that link I posted. Different for Auto/5Spd. If you were getting 10PSI before, did that shop replace your turbo, or WG Actuator? Or the tubing to it? What is this "HKS electronic valve controller"? EBC?

The HAC should be somewhere up by the ecu/behind glove box, its a small back box about 1.5"x1"x1" and has three wires going to it. Again not sure if this would cause the idle issue but can hurt to check if you have one.

yah I'm wandering now if any of these would effect the idle...

Doh!!!! Didn`t even realize you were from Canada, Jeff Lange, let alone Calgary haha. Done and done, you have a pm;)

I know it sounds as if the harness is in bad shape, but its nice to know the problem before replacing parts. jetjock-Mind point us in the right direction then??? PLEASE hahaha Thank goodness, I thought I was the only one helping this guy out.

Aye yae I. I would concentrate on 32, why the hell did 43 come up all of a sudden??? I don`t think 43 has anything to do with the TPS. Have you tried running the car lately? I would reset the ecu(sorry jetjock) and run it and check codes again, just so you`ve got a clean slate. That 43...

I just emailed them, but Jeff Lange, if I don`t get a response by tomorrow afternoon, I will get one off you. 10 dollars more:aigo: all that just for looks...least it`ll look better than the aluminum dildo shaped one the PO had on.

Can't get it in Canada??? I finally worked up the courage to order somehing for look. Plus it'll go well with my new shifter from Nashman:naughty: But I can't phone, or place a order??WTF

I think he is refering to tire pressure there.

I just find that hard to believe. Mine was na, w58, 4.30, and kn fipk. I think a z24 cavilier woulda spanked me. But put 8psi on top the pistons:love: Not sure the specs on the 5litre, but I would imagine cose to 300hp and lighter I bet.

I get about 6lbs in first. Na-T, 57ct26, yada,yada,yada. I guess its just the nature of the beast...Crazy you don't make any at all, what gears your running in the rear?
