Yep. Pop that off and use an extension to get at the nuts.

Are you asking about triggers or the fuel pump thing?

Codes? Sounds more like an IDL problem rather than VTA. IDL needs to go high as soon as the throttle opens and needs to go low just before it closes. It must also be high before VTA reaches 1.5 volts.

It's helpful to remove the switch panel and go in through there for the nuts. Also, master cylinders are rarely full one day and empty the next. Fwiw...

Well, assuming you didn't remove the throttle body like the TSRM says to (as dumb as that is) for the GE than yes, you should do it again. Remove all the plugs, hold the throttle wide open, and crank until the reading peaks.

Interesting. How can the engine breathe in enough air to compress for the short time the test is done if the throttle plate is closed?

Crack me up. IJAC...

I see. Well, although I spend most of my time these days in turbine equipment I've operated enough turbo powered aircraft in the past to say he's wrong.

There isn't pressurized fuel where the spacers are. Not that can leak like you're saying anyway. Think about it.

"For what it's worth". Now you know. Me, I'm still trying to figure out why a procedure that's clearly explained in the service manual requires 38 pages on a car forum...

You'll need to take off the rail and replace the O ring. Fwiw pressurizing the fuel system for a leak check before even trying to start the engine is typical practice.

Risk of bent valves. It should just come off though. I think he missed something.

Shouldn't have to but crank it with the plugs in...

Try #6 first. Easier and won't have to remove coil pack cover...

Physics IS the end all, be all of any argument...

Uh, maybe you should fix the codes first. Until the engine is hot the 22 will cause all sorts of issues...

So you're asking someone who puts their radiator cap on with channel locks whether hoses made in China are better than OEM?

That temp switch (the 234* one) makes for a great audible alarm. Very easy to connect a sonalert to it just behind the glove box. It'll also show how rarely a car with a stock cooling system in good condition gets that high when running.

What Devin said. It's best if tranny fluid is brought up to the optimum temp range quickly and kept within that window. You don't want it too cold or too hot. And what people should really be doing is filtering it.
