    WE-4 Value

    Hi, I think it depends on how long you intend to keep the car. If you are looking for a quick flip then most likely will not make much money. But if you had 2 comparable Black 87 GN and WE4 and the GN was $25K then I think the WE4 would be an easy 15K if not closer to the GN. Anyway...

    Do I have a bad O2 sensor?

    My car is doing something similar based on my powerlogger readings. I just wondered what you replaced your 02 with. Rockauto has the stock AFS21 for 14$. How much are the heated? Why are they much better? and do I have to do anyone extra install to hook one up? Thanks

    100 psi fuel pressure

    Hi, Was coming home and my fuel pressure was reading 100 psi. Running 93 octane with 42 lb injectors FP should be around 39 with car idling no E85 or anything like that. This was at a stoplight. Some part throttle to get moving and it went to 110. My setup is about 10-15 years old with a...

    Serious KR - False or not

    Checking the FP at idle does not really tell you much. You need to check the FP when under boost. If this is false knock you would get it under 1/2 or 3/4 throttle and even 5-10 lbs of boost. If you are seeing the problem at 15lbs of boost then your FP should go from 43 to 58 or so. You run...

    Car bucks and surges under load

    Pull all the plugs and check for cracks. My car did the same thing and the plugs only had a few thousand miles on them. NGK's out and AC Delco back in. Solved that problem. Do you remember ever hearing any loud bang or pop under load. Mine did that and I thought it was loose intercooler...

    Cam Sensor Rebuild Service

    Can you describe the symptoms of a bad cam sensor that might need to be rebuilt? How long should a cam sensor last? How would one know if the Cap, interrupter ring or the actual cam sensor was the issue?

    Fuel pressure issue

    Agree sounds like the fuel pump. I did the same drill changed the fuel filter, the FPR and turned out was the pump.

    Fuel pressure drops to zero

    Hi, need some suggestions. Recently went out to start the WE4. I noticed it took an extra long time to crank. It finally started but I was suspicious so I check the fP guage. Car would barely maintain 30 psi with the car running. Goose the throttle and maybe 35. This was with a 237 reg...

    Milky brake fluid

    Hi, I have a power master. the big inner chamber toward the firewall of the master cylinder looks very watery. I had a leaking rear wheel cylinder so I changed both of those and bleed the system. Every time when I do the 10 pumps with the key off that inner chamber gets all milky looking...

    Steering Gear box

    Hi, Just rebuilt the front end suspension got it aligned but the steering box is shot. The parts stores list a 2 1/2 for Sport Susp. (FE2, FE3) and 3 1/2 turn boxes. I am assuming the 2.5 box. Is there an upgrade to these boxes that I should look out for? Any suggestions? thanks Rob

    How to bring your weak or dead car battery back to life.

    Have you tried to actually start a car with it. I think most battery chargers can get the voltage back to 12.5 volts however if the Cranking amps are not 600+ the battery will not be able to start most cars.

    Embarrassing..

    You really did not describe the race or how it was set up. I would think that at a drag strip where you could build some boost off the line you would easily walk away from that. Think about a weak launch in a head soaked turbo car could get you a high 14 pass, and a great launch in a SC car...

    Updated list of parts 3/5 with pics.

    Do you have trans pan bracket and Shifter lever? Your picture of the trans shows the wrong side. This would be what the Console shifter cable attaches to. thanks.
