    Big thanks to Alkycontrol for the customer support

    I installed this kit about 6.5 years ago and hadn't driven the car much since then (not even registered). After trying to sell the car, I got frustrated with the low ballers and figured I need to run it myself. Recently found the pump wasn't pumping any fluid into the system. Yesterday, Julio...

    Saw your car a couple min ago over at Costco. Nice clean rig! Seems everytime I come to visit "upper Canada", I always see some nice clean GNs and T-types. Nice rig bud. Daren

    Has anyone welded up an astroroof car?

    I just pulled my astroroof out as I was changing the seal and the glass jammed mid job + I found some rust (not cancer, but the brown start from sitting moisture). With all due respect to those that love their astroroof cars, my gut says "I hate sunroofs in my personal car, why not just weld...

    Charging woes after alky kit install

    Similar problem to many, however, I didn't find a lot of different suspects when I read the search results. The car isn't charging, it has a new battery and alternator. It started acting up just after I installed the Alky kit. I figured I screwed something up. I removed all power to the...

    Cam sensor code 41...and backfires after being under load

    Was having some intermittent driveability issues...seemed the car would buck or miss after I gave it a good run. The code that eventually flashed was the cam sensor. I changed that...and the IAC as well :biggrin: after I cracked that off trying to pull of the plug. I set the cam sensor...

    Snapped off my IAC...How to approach?

    I went to replace my failed cam sensor and was disconnecting sensors and making sure I had the space when I broke the IAC housing off. I put no weight on it and was actually supporting it when I was pulling off the plug and it snapped clean leaving the threads in the throttle body. Has...

    Nice meeting you Adam Connell

    Hey Adam, Nice meeting you last weekend at the texas showdown. That car stuck out in that place despite the retarded trucks there. It looks like a sharp car and sounded pretty good too. Good luck with it... Cheers, Daren

    Overboosted now O2s are around 40-80

    Well, something dumb happened today... After changing the downpipe, I hopped out to try it out with a buddy and spooled until it started to spin and floored it to launch. As I did that it stepped out sideways and then I realized I was wayyyyy overboosting and jumped out of it. Only saw...

    FYI... guys looking for the biggest rear rubber you can fit on stock 7" rims.:confused: Bought the 275/50s BFG T/As, installed them, they SQUIRM. Thats the best word I can come up with. I put a small spacer 3/8"-ish on the rear (probably didn't need it) and ran them. My car has...

    Spring Carlisle April 21-22ish Anyone headed there?

    I'm debating a weekend trip down to the flea market/show/auction. Figure it'd be a great trip for the GN when I get the new parts installed. Anyone headed over? Any Buick vendors?
