    1200 rpm idle, is there any..

    Because it's not an idle adjustment. On the GE that screw is used to set idle mixture (on the GTE it has a different purpose) which is why idle speed changes when it's messed with. Not only are you masking the real cause of your problem but you're throwing the EFI system out of calibration...

    1200 rpm idle, is there any..

    ^ I understand you're trying to help but that's a bad idea. He shouldn't do it and if you did you should use the code stamped on the housing to put it back where it was and after fix the real cause.

    Fuel Pulsation Damper (Adjusting Screw)

    1.5-2 turns out. Only way to set it right is a pressure transducer and scope.

    Overheating issues

    Ok, never mind. 7 oz (fluid oz mind you) if everything has been flushed. Subtract from that whatever hasn't. You didn't replace the condenser right? That's quite the thread you have on the ac forum. No wonder you're frustrated...

    Overheating issues

    I can see how that chart is misleading. "All oil specifications assume that A/C system has been properly cleaned, and new accumulator/filter drier has been installed." It then goes on to state: "Specs are for total system capacities" For AC capacity means everything (just like does for...

    Overheating issues

    Yes, the amounts match but later TSRMs left stuff out. Complete compressor rebuilding instructions for example among other things. In your case I'd suggest an 87 manual. We need to define "dry system". Does it include a dry compressor? If not, and everything else has been flushed/replaced...

    Overheating issues

    Where did you look, on Cygnus? If so that's the problem. Buy a real TSRM. If the compressor takes 2.7 and the other amounts need to be added should those parts be replaced is it not clear what the total should be? Sleep through math class did we? :icon_razz

    Overheating issues

    TRSM shows compressor oil charge is 80 cc (2.7 fl oz) +/- 20 cc. Your amounts for when components are replaced. Adding them together does not equal total required for a dry system. You're not accounting for what remains in the compressor where most of the oil stays.

    7MGTE egr or no egr

    Supposedly? http://tinyurl.com/4ta5g Technical article #61. Pay particular attention to pages 1 and 5. It's doubtful "serious" detonation will occur. It *can* though. In my experience having the car instrumented sans EGR mild detonation does under certain part throttle conditions...

    Alabama Open Carry question?

    OP: I didn't see any dick swinging. Just the usual exchange of opinions. Besides, it was prompted by Theresa and I'm fairly certain she's incapable of said swinging. I'll second Mike's tip: ask the guys on that forum for help. My advice is to know the law inside out, carry at minimum an...

    Alabama Open Carry question?

    Yes, we do agree more than we disagree. I try to remember that even though I'm just a gun "owner" versus a "fanatic" both groups must continue to fight for our rights together. Pissing among ourselves is not productive and is something the antis love. As for OCing maybe you're right my...

    Alabama Open Carry question?

    I won't get into this with you Mike. We'll just have to disagree on this one. I do agree where you're coming from about local influences though. For example, and not to defend this state in any way, while Cali still allows open carry (contrary to popular belief, loaded in most of the state in...

    Alabama Open Carry question?

    I'll ignore that low blow attempt at stereotyping except to say no explanation is needed and there are plenty of Californians as upset as I am about what the state has become in regards to not only gun rights but a myriad of other issues. I remind you most Californians are not representative...

    Alabama Open Carry question?

    Then what are you trying to do? Other than comfort and a slightly faster draw than from concealment there's little advantage. All you'll do is attract attention from a certain type of LEO and scare the sheeple. CCW and avoid the grief. Unless of course you're compensating for something...
