Overview: I seem to be having a weird little tuning issue that I am trying to wrap my head around. I have done lots of reading on the TCCS and particularly the learned value correction (vf), but I can't determine which inputs may be causing my symptoms. Maybe my symptom is not directly caused by...

So back when I didnt know what I was doing I thought it was a good idea to turn the idle adjustment screw on th throttle body counter -clockwise a bit to bring my idle speed up. Since then I have heard that it shoudl always be closed fully clockwise. Well, the problem is if I leave it fully...

So if you look closely on the rear wheel well i have a couple rust spots. Also the front driver fender is a different color white than the rest of the car (came this way from the PO). My car is not a show car and I keep my money in the motor not cosmetics. Therefore I'm fixing these two things...

I'm looking for some good reading on how the charcoal canister/bvsv works exactly. Excuse the newbish question, but I can only get bits and pieces from previous threads and was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction to a full read of the system. My current thinking: the...

When you think you can get away with brittle parts instead of replacing them. From what I can tell it looks like when i put my accordian hose on in the dark last time I must have broke a good chunk of the hose off and clamped it inside there.... I didnt notice the car acting any different as...

About a week ago my connector that clips on the temp sending unit broke off. The break happened too close to the connector so i couldnt just splice it back on. Ended up just crimping on a little crimp connector and attached that to the sending unit prong. Gauge functioned as normal for a few...

Havent had any luck finding anything on this yet, but my diagnostic box is getting harder and harder to check codes from. The pins have gotten pushed down/bent over time from using homeade SST's, and inside the box it's getting crusty. I havent had a chance to pull the box off and inspect the...

I wanted to post this video to get other opinions since I'm new to the 60-1. I feel like the car just doesnt pull like it should. Yeah I know it's only at 7psi because I'm still breaking my rebuilt motor in, and I'm also still taking it easy on it and shifting early. But it just doesnt feel like...

Been searching around a little for some side skirts to throw on over the winter. I found a few different ones that look alright, but wanted to get a better idea of what all is involved in the install for these things. I'm sure some are better quality, and have better fitment than others. For...

This is driving me nuts... When I drive the car 99% of the time it runs great, no problems whatsoever, no codes. Occasionally though and what seems to be at complete random the mil will come on intermittently and soon after the car will lose power and stall. (This is scary at 60 mph when the...

I have a WTB thread started, but in a hurry to find one. Anyone know of somewhere that might have on in stock? Here is a pic of what I'm looking for:

All started when I drove the car from the shop to home for the first time, its about 10 miles. Car was finally running great and I was very happy but about halfway it started getting jerky, which I especially noticed at low speeds. No cel came on and i just wanted to get it home. Then right...

Reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to pin-point the issues. Car will start and idle great but when driving I get the classic boost leak symptoms at random...Car gets jerky/power cuts out and the cel flashes for a second, then it will go off and it builds and holds power fine again for...

Today was the first start up of the engine after a complete rebuild.. Symptom: It will start right up with no hesitation, and run and hold a nice steady idle for about 5-10 seconds, during these 5-10 seconds my fuel pressure is around 40 and my vacuum is about -16. Then it starts losing fuel...

First off here is what happened: I put all fluids in and was getting ready for my first-start moment...I set the battery in the tray, connected the positive first, then when i went to connect the negative it sparked like mad :aigo: But as i pressed the cable onto the battery terminal it stopped...

Hey guys...In the process of buttoning up the last few things before i dump fluids in and get my first-start :naughty: But in the process i have ran across a couple different things i wanted to get confirmation on to make sure i have routed correctly. I'm having trouble finding anything with...

So I will have my first start up this weekend after completing my build and I'm really starting to regret some of the decisions I've made.... I went down the lex/550/afpr/safc with 60-1 trim road. Of course among plenty of other things to support the setup but I went this way because I was...

Sorry guys but I have no idea what else to call it. I'm sure its around here all over the place because I have seen a lot of them but I can't find it.... Anyway, where can a guy pick up one of them aluminum cutouts that covers the top area between the nose piece and the front frame? Or in...

Forgot both of the covers that go in between the bell housing and the block...yep go ahead and laugh! Now that that is over with.. I can get the bottom cover on without pulling motor or tranny, top one, not so much. I wanted to get opinions on the easiest way to go about this since running...

So I was a little rough with fighting my stock turbo oil return line and it now has a kink in it. Its not completely kinked shut its about half of the stock diameter. A new DM softline kit is in order soon however I will be dropping in my rebuilt engine tomorrow and plan to have it running...
