    WTB Red/Burgundy lighted sun visor.

    Well time for an update. I've been looking into this a bit and I found that the vanity light was very hot during this. So far my left turn signals, front and back along with my bright lights (come on dim and then go out) and both brake lights aren't working. With the help of a buddy whose pretty...

    WTB Red/Burgundy lighted sun visor.

    I worked on it for a few minutes last evening. I unhooked the vanity light and the radio fuse is holding and everything seemed ok at first. Most everything works now, but I have the left turn signal not working, the cruise light is always on and the radio circuit is hot and doesn't shut off with...

    WTB Red/Burgundy lighted sun visor.

    Thanks for the replies. I just got to thinking on the way in to work. I just had my interior done and installed the sun visors during all this. I'm thinking maybe the vanity light wire is the issue. Saying this as my dash is laying in my floorboard.:mad: As to some of the questions, yes it's an...

    WTB Red/Burgundy lighted sun visor.

    So here's the deal. 86 GN I've now had for over a year now. I've been working on getting everything updated and fought a miss for quite a while. Ran down a bad MAF and a stripped bolt on the negative battery cable. I updated to the MAF to the LS1 and fixed the cable. I had it running good and...

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    It's the stock computer. Thanks for the info though. Lot's of hours could be saved by sharing knowledge like that.

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    Well I'm finally getting back to giving this some attention. Since the last post, I've cleaned up all the grounds that I can find, I've yanked the alarm system and unhooked the twilight box. In the process of all this I found the negative battery terminal bolt was stripped and wouldn't tighten...

    Gotcha. Thanks. I'll look into the twilight next week. I'm heading to Rose Hulman Friday and Notre Dame Saturday and Sunday to visit my boys. I should have an evening or two next week to dedicate. I'll keep everyone informed. Thanks

    New battery about 2 months ago. I cleaned the connections, battery cables, really good at that time. I'll check the other ends of the cables at that time. I'll test it to be sure it's good. I bought a good one. Yes, I do have the Twilight Sentinel. I've had the switch off and have just been...

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    I ran it around the block, about 4 miles, and logged from idle to full boost, marked the data file, turned the headlights on and ran from idle to full boost, then turned the lights on bright. Of course it didn't miss like normal but my voltage was no lower than 13.1 with no headlights and with...

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    Yes, I've cleaned and tightened the grounds on the back of the right head. Good voltage, I'll run some numbers but they are 13.0-13.7. I'll log it and make sure nothing drops below that number but have been watching and haven't seen anything lower than the 13.0. I'll try to work on that tonight...

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    I've worked on the ground from the head to the firewall. I'll double check the negative battery terminal to body. I've checked it before but early on. I found during a search on here last night a thread from way back when that had a similar issue. Can't find it again to save my life. I don't...

    Missing issue. Runs good until the headlights are turned on.

    I bought an 86 the beginning of the year. I had a used one from 87-91 and have been out of the business since. This 86 is in pretty decent shape but hasn't been drove much since 05. Ran like a champ with new plugs, wires and all the easy goodies. It had an aftermarket radio hardwired in. I...

    Another wheel tire fitment question

    Well, I'm going to be way tall if this is the case. I ended up with 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear with 245/40-18 and 275/40-18. I had the 1.25" spacers shipping before I had to go from 17 wheels to 18. I'll probably have to re-order the rear spacers in something around 2". I'm looking at lowering...

    Another wheel tire fitment question

    BFGoodrich doesn't do the 255/35 so I dropped to a 245/40. I didn't realize how close the front and back height was. Thanks for the suggestion. I've got the wheels and tires ordered now looking into the spacers. Thanks for the help.
