    Cracked accordian hose?

    I don't speak teenager. I speak a language similar to supradjza80. Not our fault...it's a curse ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOtoujYOWw0

    Cracked accordian hose?

    It's not? How so? ;) OP: The point being made is boost leaks cause a measured increase in airflow while accordion leaks cause a measured decrease. Boost leaks have been metered...accordion leaks are pirate. The EFI system responds to each differently.

    The difference between normal and high milage oils??

    Me. I'm considered high mileage. I was once low mileage, full of piss and vinegar, but now it takes a lot to swell my seal and even then I'm not as stout as I once was. It'll happen to you ;)

    The difference between normal and high milage oils??

    Without getting too detailed high mileage oils generally have stouter add packs with a higher percentage of seal swell agents...

    NAPA Gold Oil Filter wrench

    Try a strip of coarse sandpaper Jon. It's what I use on the rare occasion a better grip is needed. They usually come off by hand though and that's with leaving them on for two OCIs. Then again I never tighten them anywhere near 3/4 turn. Btw those plastic cap wrenches are what, $2? ;)

    TPS resistance readings check...need input

    Forget the book. Just set it for infinity at .9mm and closed below that...

    TPS resistance readings check...need input

    Whats to convert? The values either fall within the TSRM limits or they don't. That said: 1) IDL is either bad or the TPS isn't adjusted correctly with the .9 mm feeler. The reading at that point should be infinity like the book says. Likely needs adjustment. 2) Assuming the measurements...

    Super Monitor Wiring

    The white box is the stock boost gage drive circuit.

    CPS and "non reusable parts"

    I'm guessing he's talking not about the gear but entire remaned CPSs which are available from several sources. As long as the gear is OK they likely do what IJ said and reuse it. No big deal doing so. I've done it several times.

    Any way around this? (Removing Motor)

    ^ Agree. I have a 3/8" butterfly impact. Handy tool.

    Minor Issues, first start 7mgte. TPS error 41

    As I've pointed out before there must be at least one diameter upstream of the laminar flow screen for it to work correctly. Not to mention the fan is nearby. The usual symptom is unstable idle but 31 is not out of the question. Put a filter on it...

    Minor Issues, first start 7mgte. TPS error 41

    Good luck. Btw you assumed whitemike was talking about you. He assumed I was talking about SA. None of it is true. That's the internet for ya...

    code 34 turbo pressure signal

    You appear a little confused. Fuel cut will set 34 and your code may well be old but the symptoms you describe indicate a boost leak you now have, something that will also set 34. Or maybe I'm the one confused. Either way best thing to do is what you said: clear the code and drive the car again...

    code 34 turbo pressure signal

    You have a boost leak. Same code, same symptoms as when it hit fuel cut before. Ponimau?

    Fog Light Rewire Problem

    The 87 mod is bad in that it defeats the fog fuse and transfers the entire lamp load to the tail light circuit. It also interlocks the fogs to the tails. If that's desired why not connect the fog relay to Intergration Relay #2 so you could still make use of the light auto-off function already...

    Fog Light Rewire Problem

    Well, you must have screwed the pooch somewhere. Should be easy to fix though. The red/green from the fog switch picks up the white/black defogger ground while the red/black from the relay picks up the cig lighter feed at the fuse. Not the way I would have done it but stone simple nonetheless...
