Just to clarify- because I wasn't sure what you were saying @tps at tdc- You checked resistances of the tps and afm as per the tsrm?

Ideally, you'd check the continuity at the ecu, behind the glove box, to insure that the signal makes it all the way.

ok. ps- you used a copper gasket?

PS- If your O2 sensor is bad, it won't affect cold idle. Did you ever check your cam(not ignition) timing? That would affect engine idle both cold and warm. If you do get an afm or tps code, just test them as per the tsrm. It's an easy way to rule them out, or verify them as a culprit.

Check the codes again, see which codes came back, and test those related parts. And yes, you can test the harness connections; just disconnect the ecu plugs, and run a multimeter's test lead from the sensor plug to the ecu end, and read the resistances. Obviously, you'll need to temporarily...

I'll have to do this in a couple months. I think I might start by practicing on a junkyard car, and grabbing a couple spare heater core pipes while I'm trying it.

Well?

Compression test is a last resort? VS. pulling everything to change to a borrowed injector? Oh well, to each his own. Let us know how it goes.

Good question. I just took mine apart as well. My seals are in good shape, but i have to remove them for powdercoating. Have you been able to remove yours without messing them up, Scottie?

...I'm a gigolo at a local retirement home for side work... It don't pay much, but I get alot of decent casseroles.

Damn- I paid almost $50 a side for the sphericals. Here's a pic of an old vs. new rear spherical:

Thanks. I just couldn't pass up on them at that price.

Sorry guys- I don't mean to be so slow with progress on my build. I haven't had much time to do the sandblasting on parts over at my friend's house, but I'm almost done with that. All the small parts have been done, like: engine mounts, throttle body, ps and alt. mounts/adjusters coolant pipes...

DANG. (Supraguy is now shutting his big know-it-all yapper)

You know WAY too much about crank gear pulleys. :)

kg-cm, ft-lb, N-M :)

Well? Did you check injector plugs?

Can't make out the knock you speak of because the video is a constant massive rev. However, if the knock wasn't present before the timing adjustment, then it's something you touched. I suggest you check the cam gear bolts and tensioner bolt to verify they are indeed tight.

Stakes? Whatcha mean?

The ES kit does NOT have a replacement to the spherical bushing, I can gaurantee you that. This is a new rear oem bushing: And this is a new oem rear spherical bushing. Wanna make sure you're talking about the right part.
