    AC Delco Battery Replcements

    I see a rough area which would be that right side looking down from front, more toward the firewall end of the battery so you figured it out. Thanks. I'll try to figure something to keep it from sliding.

    Do you know where that tab would be on the wheekhouse if you're standing in front of the car looking down at the top of the battery?

    AC Delco Battery Replcements

    The battery in my X is a Delco 78PG (installed by first owner). It failed my tester and seems like the correct one for our cars is the 75 Series so I bought the 75VPG which is the longer lasting one. The battery is not as long and slides around left to right with the top clamp fastened. Seems...

    Does anyone know the owner of #107?

    He may be referring to a GN built as in the initial 100 batch. I believe that all GNX owners know their cars three digit dash number.

    What's going on?

    Since the site was down I notice in the GNX section that all the posts from the last year or more are gone. It used to load up with the latest posts which were always no more than a few weeks or a month old

    PTE TA49 Turbo + Terry Houston 3.5 Down Pipe DP + 3" Chrome Maf Pipe

    I just use the F11 for the fillers as its a quick way to brighten them up for a show. It does not last long, good for a day or two. They really should be repainted but not sure if I should do than on an X. I never heard of those polishes but perhaps they would work on the fillers. I wax the rest...

    PTE TA49 Turbo + Terry Houston 3.5 Down Pipe DP + 3" Chrome Maf Pipe

    Car looks nice. I have the faded bumper fillers as well, never repainted. I find the TopCoat F11 spray works really well on them and brightens them up for a few days.

    I did notice something interesting today. With the This is correct. I noticed with scan tool connected today that my idle is higher and around 1000rpm. Drops to about 850 when tool is disconnected from aldl.

    PTE TA49 Turbo + Terry Houston 3.5 Down Pipe DP + 3" Chrome Maf Pipe

    Just got the Actron CP9690. Only item it doesn't display is Mass airflow. But very helpful otherwise. I think my old snap on scanner showed MAF in grams per second on these cars. I reset my TPS from .39 to .43 and my WOT value is 4.24 from drivers seat and accelerator pedal can't travel any...

    Nice info here. I never noticed the clipped wire on that sensor...and always wondered what those 2 connectors were for behind the compressor! I though most GNX's and GN's had a normal 'odd idle' sort of like an engine with a higher lift cam. But I guess depends on ones thought of how rough it...

    New driveshaft

    I have an 87 with the original am/fm/tape/equalizer radio with concert sound. I happened to notice that the radio back-lighting appears to work fine although the equalizer is not back lit. I can not remember if this is normal or if the equalizer should back light also. Just wondering if I have a...
