    If injectors sit too long, will they go bad?

    This is what I used http://www.royalpurple.com/assembly-lube.html it is thick, stench can wake the dead but it holds. The only reason I bought this was because I could not find run of the mill assembly lube. So. Had to make due.

    Injector Style Fitment Issues

    If injectors sit too long, will they go bad?

    Well there is a way but it requires access to the front of the motor. Specifically turning the oil pump drive gear by taking the timing belt off. Otherwise turning the motor over is the same thing. Just make sure to disconnect the fuel inj, and ignition system.

    AEM EMS on 7MGTE...Strange!

    I remember seeing this before. If I recall, the fix was to make sure that the MAP channel and the TPS channels are not mixed on the AEM (Think it was TPS/MAp blending or what ever it is that AEM calls it). Also check the wiring.

    carbon fiber drive shaft

    quite simple. if it breaks, it become a giant broom sweeper. No damage to the underside or anything else as it is just carbon fiber just spinning around. Meaning new CF DS and you are good to go. Same can not be said of Al DS. Weight reduction is actually low on the list of why...

    If injectors sit too long, will they go bad?

    Reign, stick shut due to what cause? Things just don't break for the sake of breaking ;) If there was no fuel through them, then they will work just peachy keen.

    Help!! I"m leaking Gasoline.

    first off. Get kitty litter, non clumping. And use it as an absorbent to pick up the gasoline. Those vapors will ignite with a simple static discharge! Once the gasoline is absorbed. Then you can do more work. How much fuel in the tank?

    more than you ever wanted to know about wire

    Sorry for the delay folks! The strippers had to be ordered from the manufacture and as always, when buying military spec parts. The 20 questions come! With that said! :) As mentioned above, military specifications are very strict when it comes to wire strippers. In particular is the nature...

    Bunch of Lexan questions.

    the best polycarbonate comes from the aviation world. They call it impact resistant polycarbonate. Basically can take a hit at 100+ mph from a duck and only spider up but not completely destroy it. Only reason I remember was because myth busters was shooting frozen chickens against an...
