    Ever see this issue with Cometic head gaskets??

    I've been out of the loop for so long on current plug recommendations. I've always run CR42TS on 23lbs with meth and champion irons. Do you still recommend the mr43t and what gap? Thanks so much in advance.

    Scanmaster reading

    This may be a remedial question but I'm wondering if the scanmaster gets it's air flow readings from the MAF directly or the translator?

    Cuts out while rolling into boost

    I think that's where I'm at because now it is a complete stall and not just a nose dive while rolling into boost. Had to restart it like 6 times to drive 15 miles lol. But of course when you bring it back to put a scope on the sensor, it won't do it again lol. It will restart after about 30...

    Lean at first accel, like a bad accel pump on a holley

    I have been chasing the same issue for a year. Except mine also periodically leans out while cruising in addition to off idle accel and i watch the wideband go to sometimes 18/1. Did you ever find anything on your end? New PCM, O2, MAF

    Intermittent code 41

    I know it's been 20 years lol but I have the exact same issue while cruising. Did you ever find out if there was a bad wire from the Cam sensor to the ECM?

    Cuts out while rolling into boost

    Just put a new Bosch in but haven't started the car yet as I am waiting for a 6262 from Precision. Never over bumps or anything obvious like that always while rolling into boost. I could put it to 2/3 throttle and when it hits approximately 10+ lbs or above, every once in a while it will just...

    Cuts out while rolling into boost

    Will do. I installed the Champion irons myself a few years back and didn't notice anything but I will double check. Also recently repaired the fuseable links as there was one that was slightly burned through. Anyway thanks for the tip. Since it's not wide open throttle when it occurs, could it...

    Cuts out while rolling into boost

    Did it again on May 1 where I rolled into boost and it suddenly cut out as if something killed the motor but I could immediately re apply power. Will install a new crank sensor as I've had this car for 7 years and it's not been done.

    Morel lifters are loud

    This will work on our cars? The one from Kirban is twice the price.

    Whats the most boneheaded car thing youve ever done?

    During my time as a master tech, I came into work one morning and the car I had previously left on a lift was standing on it's back bumper. It was an older style lift with in-ground front and rear air cylinder. I had left work the previous night and not locked the valve to keep air pressure in...

    Racing a 1969 GTO tomorrow

    Even if he gets the jump, you'll catch him. Especially if your converter is locked and holding ;)
