It solved the problem. :) thank you for your patience earl.

Oh just had to look at my own pic again. Wow brain fart.....thanks that's an easy fix.

Any pics of how it should look? Sorry not sure what you mean by letting the bolt "bottom out"

So the spring(s) should both be fully compressed?

Doing some spring cleaning, fresh ta-49 install and let her run for a few minutes. From the looks of the seal and judging by the amount of smoke and the fact that I feel the air pushing out of this gasket, I'd say the seal is shot. Looking for input as to how to go about changing this seal. Most...

As the title states, I'm new-ish to the Buick tech arena and have very general questions about chasing electrical problems/sorting out and locating shorts or corroded wires. I have looked at the wiring diagrams on turbobuicks as well as vortex, but I have very broad questions as to how to go...

You sir, have just laid out the framework for what I want to do with my DD '86 and confidence I needed to go with a TA-49 over a rebuilt stock turbo. That is all.

All that trouble and waiting for nothing...never got that bracket in the mail. Still looking for that part, PM or reply below!

Can the stock 120 Amp alternator be set in the same fashion? I think I see the set screw that you're talking about, would the stock alt. be able to handle the 14V? Had my alternator and battery checked, both were working however max volts was at 13, and now about a week later my bat numbers on...

following this thread with much interest...volt light just came on this morning with scanmaster showing 10.1-11.1 volts...had previously been running in the 12.4-13 range. MAL code 45 says I'm running rich, new PYPES exhaust coming in this week will hopefully correct my exhaust leak and...
