    Raw fuel dripping out of the turbo elbow flapper hole? How is it...

    I did a little checking last night and it is fuel, antifreeze is fine, and the oil looks okay but is a little above full ( i assume gas was going past the rings when i turned the key on) The alky has the right amount in the tank. I turned the key on and the fuel pump is not shutting off like...

    Raw fuel dripping out of the turbo elbow flapper hole? How is it...

    Antifreeze is okay, the oil does have some fuel smell to it and i think it does have fuel in it. I have driven the car 40 miles home after this happened mainly because i had no idea what has happened and doubt i was doing more damage than already occured. I have owned this car for 20 years now...

    Raw fuel dripping out of the turbo elbow flapper hole? How is it...

    What has happened?? I have raw gas dripping out of the turbo waste gate elbow where the attuator rod attaches. One minute all was fine and the next all heck broke loose. We were at Texas motor speedway a few weeks back doing laps for charity and on the 3rd lap i was blowing smoke out the back...

    Garyk- After fighting this for a few hours, i got it figured out. I stopped by a car toys store this afternoon and they told me i needed to install some filters on the amps. Spent 35 bucks for no improvement. Turned down the gains, still the same. I pulled the radio twice and screwed with...

    I installed a pair of Alpine main amps and a 7 inch flip up Pioneer audio/video reciever and a single 12 inch JBL sub for the moment. I will probably build a box in the next day or 2 and use the JL 12's that i have laying around the house when i can figure out how to build it and make it work in...

    Check valve before the PVC valve??

    So, i can leave the one way valve off above the pvc valve? It takes at least 15 psi of air to get any thru the one way valve. Or do i leave it in? I would think that during regular driving it would send the blow by back thru the dog house and cut down on the amount coming from the valve covers...

I can not blow thru it, i can get compressed...

    GN will not boost more than 16-17 psi with alky kit

    No cracked header ( been there, done that years ago), no exhaust leaked. Car runs excellent. I have been having trouble finding a good place to test the car out. It does appear to gain boost with each gear. 15/16 in 1st, 16/17 in second, 17/18 in 3rd. All my numbers are good for the point...

    On car injector cleaning?

    I was in Advance Auto (NAPA??) the other day and they had 3m and their brand of injector cleaner on the isle. They did not have the adapter hose to screw from the can to the fuel rail. Can you use a set of AC guage lines? The NAPA brand was 14 bucks and the 3m was 22 dollars

    GN will not boost more than 16-17 psi with alky kit

    I do not have the stock downpipe, i believe i have a larger pipe made by Blowing Green Customs?? It is a larger pipe for sure, i still have the factory downpipe hanging on the garage wall. Most of my upgrades were done years and years ago.

    GN will not boost more than 16-17 psi with alky kit

    I had a vaccum line off on the turbo, i replaced both lines and still only have 16-17 pounds of boost. I also have shortened the waste gate rod all the way. Car runs great, pulls hard, smells great with a little grape scent in the alky but i want to see 20 psi or more on the boost guage. I just...

    How do you remove the dash plaque above the glovebox?

    Thanks, I felt 2 of the studs already. I will find the 3rd unless it is in the middle. If it was in the middle i probably did away with it when i installed the guages.

    GN will not boost more than 16-17 psi with alky kit

    A few years back i installed Razor's alky kit and a TurboTweak alky chip. My car does not boost above 17 psi. I am pretty sure the alky chip was burned for 22-24 psi or that appears to be written on the back of the chip. My reciept from TurboTweak shows that i answered all the questions about...
