ok thats funny.

serious note what type of stuff did you use (wires, plugs and what not).

As Mike already confirmed.. that is a good head to use. Hardened seats is about all you would need if they havent been done already. If you dont mind can you post up the casting # just for archive...

It isn't the intake or exhaust ports that are the issue. It is the combustion chamber. If it is kindney shaped it can be made to work .. if it is the heart shaped ones then that is nobueno. I have...

When it runs it puts 14.4 to the battery. when it is cutting out it is 12.2 or less. the shop took my alt and put load on it and they said it passed. Max output was 74 amps. They said they put ...

well went for 2 weeks and all is good and it came back again last night. I took the alt off and took it to a alt specialty shop and they confirmed the alt is good. I have a new voltage reg and a...

Thanks for the credit Mike. the pic is off of our 84 rusty resto project. The oil cap is off of a later car 88 tbird if I remember correctly.

I drove back and fourth to work today with no issues. I figured since i had the switch I would change it out. The old one was solid as a rock no wiggle to the plastic at all. I suspect my alt is...

so..... went to check the readings one more time to satisfy curiosity. Now it is reading 14.2 while running.

So I messed with putting a load on the car and starting and stopping the engine. I...

Ok. looks like it is the alternator again. getting 12.4 with the car running . weird part is this time my amp light didnt light up. I have replaced soo many alernators over the years in this car....

Are you talking about the module itself or the key lock cylinder?

Ok this is one I think I have heard stories about. A wise man gave me a part and told me to hang onto it for this reason (I think).

Before I go and tear my column apart to change the signal...

I guess this is another good reason to document with picts. Memories fail


LOL I knew it was up there just not exactly where I remember finding it.

it has been a while but IIRC there is one clip that has a bolt up in the front. You have to take off the kick panel by your feet (front seats) to get to the back of the bolt. then the entire rocker...

I just opened one a few weeks ago. It was given to me as a gift. I found, as I was going through the parts one of the lenses for the lights was missing. The lens pack is still factory sealed with...

I too have had a set of Konis rebuilt. I have my 86 lowered with the "C" springs. The tech I spoke with recommended going with a slightly shorter shaft to avoid any bottoming out of the shock...

When you swapped pumps, did you also change the rubber hose or is the original still in? Second, have you tried to pull codes (not sure if it will tell us anything useful)?

I got it off ebay a few years ago. the seller was sketchy at best and it shipped from Japan. All in all it is a great simple unit. The newer units seemed overly complicated for just controlling...

I run a greedy Profec B. I have zero issues with it holding exactly 22psi. on high and 14 on low setting. I have many dyno runs on the car and never saw any issues at all with the unit. I think...

looks like the oil level plug that goes in the pan to me.

thats how the dealer fixed mine in 92 when I replaced the originals (replacements had condensation problems since day of install)

If you dont have one..http://www.carid.com/actron/actron-testers-and-tools-15891009.html

i dont use mine often but... i do use it.

TPS sensor issue or vac leak? sometimes i hate old cars... lol

quick look I see on napa the 88 tbird 2.3 is listing a good part #

I have only used stock flywheels. Not a real fan of taking away material from a flywheel to lighten it. I have sold a few of the spec flywheels and no one ever complained to me about them not...

I can not disagree but the last that got me leaked and ran down along the flange then down into the plastic tank cover and then came out the holes there. But I knew I had tore the gasket putting the...
