    intermittent cutting out

    You might want to unplug your ECM and look at the pins and the terminals. If you have corrosion in there, that could be all it is. Spray them with some contact cleaner and carefully plug in and unplug each connector a few times to clean the contacts and do nothing else then test drive again...

    I was going to say just what DSR-Turbo T said. I have seen the same white colored patches appear under my car, it wouldn't be there the night before but would seem to appear with rising humidity then once the sun hits it, the white disappears. Does the white disappear once the sun heats...

The 2 fender braces under the hood, the 3 piece triangle on the frame under the motor and the cross braces behind the rear seat. I made the rear seat ones from...

    111 octane fuel??

    100 octane Cam 2 Just yesterday I found Cam 2 100 octane at an Irving station near my house in Protshouth RI that I'd never stopped at before. It's "only" $8.64/gallon, a $135 fillup is not happening so for now I'll only be using it in my 2 stroke trials bike. Bob

    Cam 2 100 octane

    Yesterday I found 100 octane Cam 2 at an Irving gas station on East Main road in Porthsmouth RI at $8.64/gal. I've been looking for some for my trials bike and didn;t want to have to buy 5 gallons of C12 for $80, just wanted to put it out there if anyone is looking for it in the area. Bob

    How to fix throttle body leak under TPS?

    Throttle body seals Its a lot easier with the throttle body off the motor and maybe less of a chance of damaging new seals when driving them in. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/general-turbo-buick-tech/279071-t-b-vacuum-leak.html Bob
