I know, not safe!! My fan stopped working a few months ago. I played around with the fan and after numerous pushes it slowly started working! Of course, it didn't work a few days later when I tested it again. I pushed it some more and it slowly started again. Since the fan works when pushed...
I installed a 2nd torque converter when my first one was being repaired. This 2nd one was suposed to be a lock-up. I cannot get into OD for anything. Is it possible the torque converter is not a lock-up? How can I tell? It's a Street Brawler and the seller said he thought was a lock-up and...
Can someone explain to me how I can adjust the transmission/torque converter to allow it to shift into OD? It stays in 3rd gear up to 55 mph and won't shift any further. Is it an adjustment at the console shifter or the detent cable or the shift linkgage? I have a Street Brawler lock up...
Yep, that is what I was told this time. 3rd time failed. The emissions test kept failing me because the shift from 2nd to 3rd gear made the RPMs go too high and then after the shift to 3rd, they drop quickly.
I have been playing around with adjusting the rod that comes down from the...
Can someone take a look at this power logger file? My car seems to be running really well since I have been finding and fixing problems. I can mash the accelerator now and get lots of wheel spinning and a smooth acceleration with no stumbling! This is the first time in the last few years I have...

I just finished fixing my MAF problem and decided to take the car to get it inspected. The car, in park was running 2800- 3200 rpms. Within 2 minutes, the radiator over flow started bubbling up and over, then the radiator hose on top exploded and blew a 2" hole through it. The inspection shop...
I found a wire that is broken. It is attached to a bolt that is just above the dip stick bolt that holds the transmission to the engine. The bolt is about the same size as the transmission bolt. The broken wire looks like it is coming out of a black tube holding a bunch of wires. What kind...
I have been working on my transmission and the car has not been used for almost 3 months. When I reinstalled the transmission and drove the car for the first time (and since then) it has been driving very poorly with the jerking popping and stuttering. The gas was low and so I added some...
I pulled my tranny this week. Are there any recommendations for different things to check on the car while it's out?
Also, I've had a nagging vibration coming from the engine compartmnet that gets worse when the air conditioner is turned on. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing...
I've been trying to diagnose my leaking transmission. Can anyone take a look at my pics and tell me if they can see anything obvious wrong with the tranny? Thanks.
Hi,
I am looking to improve the performance of my car (who isn't?? :rolleyes:). Here are the things I am considering purchasing:
Power Logger
Wide Band O2 set up
MAFT set up
Larger turbo
Larger injectors
What order should I buy these in? Have I missed something important? What...
Has anyone worked with the cheaper tranny jacks- Jegs, Torin, Summit, etc.? Do they work okay for home use? Anyone recommend any of these? Getting ready to buy one but I dont want to waste my money. Thanks.
I've been trying to find my transmission fluid leak. When I get under the car the passenger side of the transmission has several lines going to it. I think 2 are for the transmission cooler (aluminum?) and the third is the TPS. I read that a common problem is the dipstick tube nut can get...

Here is what I did before these readings:
Adjusted the Wastegate; started out all the way with no boost...
Can someone help me find my vacuum leak? A list of where to look for the common leaks would help. My RPMs continue to run high in park- 1500 RPMs and in drive without moving- 1200 RPMs. I have replaced most of the vacuum hoses that I see but I still can't get the RPMs to drop. Tried the IAC...
