Does anyone here know of a good mechanic or anyone that could help me in the orlando area? Reason I ask is because I was on my way to a friends house and my car broke down on the turnpike. I am about two hours from home and I have no tools or anything to work on the car with. The problem with...

I posted this in the parts wanted section, but I figured i'd try here also. I need an 84/85 MAF sensor. Mine will only read up to about 160 on the scan tool. Also, it dosen't like to work after rain or in the morning when there is a lot of moisture out(the numbers jump all over the place and...

I need to find an 84/85 MAF in good working order. Mine will only read up to about 160 on the scan tool. And for some reason, it dosen't like to work after rain or a lot of moisture. Thanks. Eric

Does anyone know where I can get this gasket from? I bought the up-pipe from jaysgn and it requires the doughnut gasket to fit properly. I had/have the ATR up-pipe which just bolted to the turbo directly without the gasket. I need this gasket as soon as possible, as I am home from school for...

What downpipe and where should i get one? I want a pipe that flows way better than stock. Should I go with 2.5" or 3"? I'm also going to leave the catylitic off. I have an ATR up-pipe and will probably be getting the poston headers because i can't find them anywhere else. Finally, how much...

I need front seats with the gray upholstery. I have an 85 t-type. Thanks.

knock retard vs knock counts.......what's the difference and is there such a thing? i have a cheap scan tool (monitor 85) that says "knock retard" but I don't believe it. reason is...the car seems to run good but the scan tool will continually count upwards 1 2 3 4 5 6...

I have my car at the mechanics only because I don't have the time to get this thing running right before I head back to school. He told me the MAF sensor was bad and replaced it with another one that looks like its bottle necked in the middle. I pointed out that it does not look like the stock...

Can a bad or broken fuel sending unit play havoc with the ECM? Meaning, can it cause the car to run poorly or does it have nothing to do with how the car runs? I have the digital dash and mine is broken(the sending unit), sometimes it reads that I have a few gallons then sometimes it reads...

Just a general question here. What does the calpack do and how does it work? When does it work? (ex. only on start up? only durring open loop? All the time?) When changing injectors, is the chip the only thing you have to change to go with the injector size? Or should you modify the calpack...

I just got my car back running the other day and it was running like crap. I had the stock chip in with 42.5# injectors. A new chip was on its way I just wanted to get the car running again. I just put the new chip in tonight and it is no better. The chip I got is from caspers, the ultrachip...

I just got my car running today! I had the heads off and got them magnafluxed, milled, new intake valves, and all valve seals, after the car overheated. I blew a head gasket and the heads were warped. The block was rebuilt about 500-1000 miles ago but had all stock parts put back on it. Since...

I just bought a turbo oil supply line from postons, the one on the car now was custom made and it rubs the hood insulation when you close it. The one that is on there now runs from the front of the engine right by the top of the oil pump and up to the turbo. The one I got from postons does not...

This may be a dumb question but are the driver side and passenger side heads the same? One has the number 4 on it and the other has the number 6 on it, they look identical I just want to know if they are. Any info on this will be appreciated. Thanks. Eric

I've got an 85' t-type that overheated and blew a head gasket. I've got the heads off getting them checked and magnafluxed. The engine maybe has 1000 miles on it since it was rebuilt. Turbo and injectors were supposed to be upgraded also, but i'm not sure if my past mechanic actually did what he...

85 t-type, won't idle when it warms up. rebuilt motor and turbo. It seems that once the car goes into closed loop it won't idle and stalls. If I can get the rpm's up it will run fine and accelerates fine. Could it be my O2 sensor? No service engine light and no scan tool yet but it's on its...

I have an 85' T-type that I just got back from having the engine rebuilt. The engine and turbo were rebuilt about 1 1/2 years ago, and the original guy that was doing the work let it sit for about a year. I took the car back and brought it to someone else to finish it up and I just got it back...
