    Anybody spit up white balls from time to time? (nws)

    I'd really rather not. LOL. In fact, I think I'll run away from this thread and never return!

    egt exhaust bung location??

    I'd go right off the collector, as that'll give you a good range of all six cylinders. Ideally, you would have one in each runner; but that' would be a PITA to monitor!

    Anybody spit up white balls from time to time? (nws)

    I've got my tonsils, and I've never even heard of this, nor have I ever had one of them that I've been aware of. :runs to the nearest piece of wood... :knock knock knock::

    '95 BMW M3 - shaeff's summer daily driver

    Mine too, once I drove it! The basic deal that everyone over on bimmerforums.com's forced induction section is this: .140 MLS headgasket to drop the compression, ARP 2000 studs, and the appropriate hardware (turbo, manifold, piping, etc...) and those guys are making 480-500rwhp @ around 18psi...

    '95 BMW M3 - shaeff's summer daily driver

    Yeah, quite a ways back I started a thread because I was looking for a new summertime daily driver so that I could use the Pickup for winter mostly. I always have two cars on the road at the same time, and one of them is always my Pickup. It's super reliable, and mighty useful, too. ;) Back...

    so i start my new job tonight...

    :) I sure do miss the lankster. :( I have no idea, how big is your warehouse? The facility that I'm currently working in is 200+ thousand square feet. The new one that we're due to move in next year is state of the art, and they're saying 500+ thousand square feet, plus we're going up...

    so i start my new job tonight...

    Superbump from three years ago for a long needed update. Apparently I forgot about this thread. It's been three years and four months since I started working here. The company has merged with the Charmer Sunbelt Group, too. I worked my way up the ranks of the night crew in just one year...

    stock timing setting

    If you don't get it by Saturday, I'll show you how to do it when we do the heater core.

    is this a good kit?

    Well of course the fit wouldn't be different. If it was, the belt wouldn't fit our cars. ;)

    Need to get this @#$$#!ing bolt off! ::updated Success::

    I was just about to post this. Guys, if you're heating up that damper, you're going to kill it. Get a new one. Also, get a better impact gun. The one I picked up for a few bucks at a yard sale has never failed me. LOL. (and make sure you oil them properly; it matters!)

    Fuel pressure drops!

    The fuel pressure shouldn't really drop, as vacuum decreases fuel pressure should increase. I only asked because when I was working on my car quite a while ago, I happened to get a nest of spiders living in my brand new fuel filter. When I revved the motor, fuel pressure dropped because it was...

    LSD on n/a? what are the benefits?

    You guys are nuts. I absolutely love the 4.3 LSD gearing w/ a 7MGTE in front of it...

    Fuel pressure drops!

    Rev the motor from the engine bay. Watch the fuel pressure gauge. What happens to the gauge when you rev the motor? Also keep in mind that those liquid filled fuel pressure gauges become inaccurate to an extent the more they heat up.

    Yeah, you're not kidding! I've done it a few times too. I agree w/ the Toyota factory comment 100%!
