I am not at home, but I can take some pics of a cracked hypereutectic piston I have as a paperweight.
Cracked at the middle ring. The block and crank didn't survive.
I haven't used hypers since, but hey do what you want, it's your money.
Think I have an issue that I have been dealing with for a while sorted out. Car runs fine, it even idles OK. Not great but OK.
On my scanmaster my IAC has never been less than 75 at idle. I have checked for leaks time and time again. Even borrowed a friends boost leak detector. I found 3...
Sounds similar to something I felt like I was chasing my tail on. I kept thinking it was MAF drop out. Check your battery cables.
I had replaced both mine from Caspers electronics a while back. Don't know why the wire from the alternator to the battery was soo long. I had broke my...
Your numbers look good. Your IAC is a little off/high, 10-20 is best with a TT chip.
Can you post some WOT readings from your scanmaster? Running less boost shouldn't be a problem. I assume it is a stock actuator since it is a stock turbo.
Sounds like you are talking about the rear upper control arms.
If so...get a 1/2 in drive 6 point socket on the bolt. Then use a 3/8 to 1/2 adaptor on it, next a swivel and then your 3/8 drive ratchet. Impact gun (or large rathchet) on the other side, it will help tremendously if you have...
Looking for a black Tri-Shield center cap for a friend. He doesn't do well on computers. Just needs to be driver quality, doesn't have to be in pristine shape.
So do I subtract the angle of the driveshaft from the angle of the pinion of the rear end? Or do I calculate the difference between the two? This stuff just makes my head hurt. How do you determine the difference? Given what you see in the pics, is my pinion angle -2 or -1? Or do I need to...
Checking pinion angle. First pic is of angle finder on the driveshaft, I get a measurement of -1/2 degree.
2nd pic is of angle finder on the pinion coming out of the rear end, I get an angle of -1 and a half degrees.
Making my pinion angle -2, correct??? Pros and cons of more and...
