    Factory tach & boost gauges seldom work

    My factory tach and boost gauges only seem to show a reading from a stop then brisk acceleration. My ace mechanic says it's the motherboard and he is stuck. The car sat in a garage for 3 years with little starting if that means anything but the gauges worked for a month after coming out of...

    What is better, E10 93 Octane or R90 gas?

    I have no interest in E85, thank you. This was just intended to ask : "What to buy in unfamiliar area?"

    What is better, E10 93 Octane or R90 gas?

    I run the factory chip @ factory boost. When I saw E85, I was in corn country at a grain elevator. None nearby that I have seen here. Octane is a ratio. I looked it up as chem class was a long time ago but it is still the same. The name "octane" comes from the following fact: When you take...

    What is better, E10 93 Octane or R90 gas?

    I now have a gas station near me with 93 Octane pure gasoline but what if I need gas and have to choose the lesser of two evils; pure 90 Octane gas or 10% ethanol 93 Octane? Which to use? The 93 Octane gas is near a lake. E10 is bad for boat engines. E15 coming next year to a station near...

    Anyone want to have a group buy of Freon 12?

    My thread asking for info on conversion to the lower quality 134a @ $5/can or pay $25 on Ebay led me to find out others have found it on craigslist as low as $6/can. I have seen 30 pound cans but that cannot be shared all over the country. I have seen one post of 48 14 oz cans # $16.15 I had...

    Freon 12 @ $25 can on Ebay or switch to 134 @ $5 can?

    A seller on Ebay says: Freeze-12 Refrigerant = R134a Thinking about using Freeze-12 refrigerant? You may be surprised to learn that it is nothing more than a blend of R134a and HCFC 142. Most of the "alternative" refrigerants are really nothing more than a slightly different blend with a...

    When to use alcohol ?

    I am not familiar with a roller cam. Did you mean roller lifters? I was going to install a cam a little hotter on the exhaust side. I knew they all came with only OK valve springs by reading this forum so I wanted to replace the 23 years old ones. As long as the springs are off, it costs...

    When to use alcohol ?

    thank you Sounds easy. How much allky does it use per, say a 4 second WOT setting? Do I use it straight where it will attract water as anything close to pure allky is highly hydroscopic or is it cut with distilled water, as in the rocket juice in post #1.

    When to use alcohol ?

    Excellent point. If I want to pass a slow truck on a winding road with just a few short passing spots every few miles, I will want to floor it. OK. How do I put in an allky kit?
