    Gutless until the motor warms up, dies when you let off the gas

    Wouldn't matter anyway because the BVSV isn't electrical. The blue connector is for the condenser fan thermo switch. The other is for the AC coolant temp cut out...

    Intermittent misfire

    Huh? Didn't you just say you worked in a shop?

    ac removal

    The reason should be obvious. Don't make me 'splain it ;)

    Intermittent misfire

    Apples to oranges. One is analog while the other is digital. You're almost surely barking up the wrong tree, Not that it can't fail but you sure aren't going to find out using an ohmmeter.

    Intermittent misfire

    Without an afm code you ought not to be messing with it. Nor should you be worried about the 51 because it's supposed to work that way...

    no spark after BHG repair

    Yeah, go figure. But since the fuel system is sealed where did the fuel evaporate to? Bear with me. Not being the genius hvyman is I often need explanations....

    no spark after BHG repair

    Call me curious but how does an empty fuel tank result in no spark?

    finally!!! i can weld aluminum from home

    Whaaat? I missed that. Me also being somewhat of a machinist (I own a lathe and mill, they live not far from the welder) I would like to hear more. Then again maybe not. Meh, I say let the guy be. If he wants to mess around with balloons and rainbows more power to him. Besides, he seems to be...

    Car idles low/dies when quickly let off throttle

    Smoke machine is used for evap and other tests to find leaks in all kinds of systems. Google it. Not cheap but can be homemade with a little effort. It *is* one of the greatest tool ever made. The only way someone will get mine is when they pry it from my cold dead hands...

    Car idles low/dies when quickly let off throttle

    No but the leaks in the hose sucked big time after leaving the same air filter in for more than 200K miles ;)

    finally!!! i can weld aluminum from home

    ^ Tis true ;) I'm gonna give up on this guy. I think the problem is my definition of tig welding, having done it for nearly 20 years mostly on stainless and aluminum, is different from his. I was just amused by someone who has never done arc welding of any kind, who clearly know little...

    finally!!! i can weld aluminum from home

    Crack me up. I'm not saying you didn't do it. What I was referring to was none of it is welding. All we've seen so far is a couple of horrific butts (why would anyone even post those?) that are the result of either bad gear/parameters or someone who can't manipulate a tig torch. Since you claim...

    Thermal Arc 300GTSW with external pulse and sloping. Not the latest and greatest but does a fine job. I'm pointing this out only to show mine is bigger than yours :) OP: You'll have to get up early than that to fool some of us...

    Not lost but there's good reasons they've been forgotten. You're going to find out why. ae86: That's the updated version of Miller's Econo-Tig. Being inverter based it weighs a lot less than the older model. Although I've never used one it looks like a good no frills machine. No wave...

    finally!!! i can weld aluminum from home

    I find it very odd someone whose done research for years would come up with some of what he says but he's correct the original Heliarc process was DC and used He as a shielding gas. I'm not saying it can't be done but rather than explain all that sucks about I'll settle for him showing us when...

    finally!!! i can weld aluminum from home

    You guys are basicaly right. When using AC on aluminum the positive portion of the waveform provides ion bombarment for removing the surface oxide, equivelent to DCEP. The negative portion provides penetration from electron flow and is equivalent to DCEN. Adjusting the duty cycle (wave...

    cold air intake

    The stock setup is a cold air intake. Or did you mean something "better"?
