    oil pump driveshaft removal on early 7m?

    Mine just pulled right out, virtually no effort required. I assume that the oil pump is already out?

    Sent the crank to the shop now I got a question.

    I'd likely let Napa do it - they should just machine the crank to fit a standard size. I had my shop do that for Clevite bearings, and they fit flawlessly.

    changing turbos

    OMG - you took the oil lines off the TURBO! No wonder it was hard... I pull them off the block every time.

    Pillar Guage Pods

    Eww... I was NOT impressed with them. Took an awful lot of work to get it to fit even halfway decent.

    !! FC with 6.5 PSI !!

    Simple - a leak means that the turbo is sucking in more air to achieve the same pressure level. The AFM detects a little too much air, and WHAM, you have fuel cut.

    Heh... I only said that he'd come if you came from Germany for the meet. You're already here, so it doesn't count.

    wont rev past 4000

    The hose on the bottom connects to the power steering pump - there will be another hose that leads across the front of the engine, this one plugs in right beside it. Junkyard turbos are sometimes ok... but often not. You could likely do better searching the for sale forums here for someone...

    !! FC with 6.5 PSI !!

    Try pressure testing the intake from the turbo to the engine. Find where the air hisses out and fix that. FC at 6 psi = a damn big hole somewhere, we're not talking about a loose vacuum line here.

    Has anyone seen "Jarhead" already?

    I watched it last night - I enjoyed the first half a lot, the second half was a lot slower and more serious, just not as much fun to watch. There are some FUNNY lines in there... in the showers: "Hey look! It's a cock, only smaller!"

    What Can I Do?

    Email the guy who bought the pistons, see if it's a widespread problem. What do you want to do from here? Do you want to wait and hope that you get this pump, so you can save some $$$, or do you want to say to hell with it, get your money back and get one from the dealer so you can move along...

    Idle Insanity!

    Well, the lugnuts hold the whole thing together... plus the disk can't really go anywhere with the caliper bolted on, either.

    Tell me about 1996 isuzu rodeos v. I might buy one

    My mother owned one of the pickup versions of these. It was dead reliable for a hella long time - eventually she managed to kill it, god knows how but she burnt the valves on one cylinder and cracked the head. In the years that she drove it, it was very reliable - never blew up hardly...

    !! FC with 6.5 PSI !!

    I'll second that bet. Furthermore, I'll bet we won't get anyone betting against us, either.

    somethings wrong... any ideas?

    Well, that means either it's not fuel cut... or your CEL is burned out. :) Check for codes... go find Shaeff's signature for the link, it's late and I don't remember it off the top of my head right now.

    really strange noise

    I have ZERO clue what I was thinking of when I posted this, but obviously it wasn't Supras. Please ignore this post, it's so wrong that it's actually funny.

    So my sister is pregnant...

    Guys are all sluts. Women are supposed to be better. It's a double standard, and to coin a phrase, don't knock it, we got the long end of the stick on this one.
