    '04 Grand Prix Cold Start problem

    I appreciate the responses... I was thinking of replacing the O2 sensors too, just haven't gotten to it yet. The problem is becoming less of a hassle since priming the pump twice seems to help most of the time. I'd like to know what happens when you replace the O2 sensors though. Also, the...

    '04 Grand Prix Cold Start problem

    I'm going to post this on a Grand Prix forum, but I'm waiting to be approved as a member... and I've always gotten a quick response with all my GN questions here! When the engine is cold and I go to start the car, it never wants to start on the first try (or stumbles and dies quickly after...

    The new "WATCHMAN" movie, see it for free

    I'll catch it on TBS in about 6 months, seeing as it tanked (relatively) at the box office this weekend.

    Plastic inner fender (passenger side)

    I was looking for a passenger side plastic inner fender (or wheel well, whatever you prefer to call it) for an '87 GN. I can pick it up in Gainesville, FL on Dec. 2 if anyone is heading there for the race, otherwise I'll pay the shipping cost. Thanks! Mel

    Where to find tranny fluid lines to radiator

    So a few years ago I had taken my GN in to a local radiator shop to have the radiator repaired and, sure enough, they decided to cut the transmission lines going into the radiator, as opposed to just unscrewing them. I've had them sort of half-ass attached using rubber tubing for the time...

    Installed new amp... weird volume control problem

    Nevermind... messed around with some options on the cd player and it fixed it. It's weird, the default settings work fine without an amp.

    Installed new amp... weird volume control problem

    I just installed a new amp (well, not necessarily new but new to the car). While I'm driving, the bass sounds pretty good and all the other speakers sound great. When I slow down, or come to a complete stop, the sound volume goes WAY down and the bass sort of goes away. Its sort of annoying...

    injector resistance

    Does anyone know how much resistance each injector should have? I'm having a no-start problem that I thought I had solved last weekend, but it was just a fluke. I have injector pulse and spark, and the car starts fine once every 10 or so times, or after I spray carb cleaner in the...

    will injectors still pulse w/bad cam sensor? (no start problem)

    RAZOR KNOWS ALL Check this out... FP was at around 45#. I go to turn it down 1#, and it shoots up to 60#. After I turn it WAY back down to 45, it starts right up. I think its time for a new gauge and/or regulator. Thanks for all the help :) Mel

    will injectors still pulse w/bad cam sensor? (no start problem)

    I connected a noid light and verified the injectors were pulsing (light was flashing). As for the plugs, I pulled all 6 plugs and verified spark while cranking. I'll say it again..... ALL 6 PLUGS WERE SPARKING AND THE INJECTORS WERE PULSING (FLASHING) w/ FUEL IN THE RAILS.... any ideas...?

    will injectors still pulse w/bad cam sensor? (no start problem)

    I have quite a dilemma. When I try to start my car, all 6 plugs are sparking and the injectors are pulsing, but it just won't start. I tried swapping ECMs.... nothing. I tried readjusting the cam sensor.... nothing. It doesn't seem to be getting fuel (spark plugs are dry). There is fuel...

    ground wires to aluminum bracket?

    I thought I connected everything, but I read in another post that there are ground cables that connect to the aluminum bracket holding the A/C, alternator, etc... I can't find any wires that are supposed to connect there. Does anyone know where those wires are, and what they're for?

    Starter wire question

    I just wanted to make sure i connected this right.... There are 2 wires from the harness that connect to the big post on the starter, 1 wire from the harness that connects to the small post, and the battery cable that also connects to the big post. I just wanted to clarify because I read...

    Win XP question

    It doesn't matter what computer you have it on, as long as its installed on only one computer at any particular time. In other words, if you install it on one computer and want it on another, you have to uninstall it from the first one before you can install it on the second one. ....of...
