    Cam Sensor or Cap?

    My car has a misfire. I've narrowed it down to the cam sensor and or cap. If I start the car and then unplug the cam sensor harness it then runs fine. Was just wondering if I should just get a cap, the whole snsor and where to get them from? Thanks

    Cam Sensor ?

    My cam sensor is causing my car to run horribly after 15-20 minutes of driving (cutting out, missing, bucking). I have narrowed it down to the cam sensor by unplugging the connector at the cam sensor (after I start the car) and the car runs fine. I noticed the interrupter ring isn't loose...

    Where can I get this part? (PICS)

    Look at the RED colored part in this picture. It mounts to the fuel rail on my GN. I just need the red colored piece. The one I currently have is aluminum and since I have no aluminum wrenches, I split it. I would like to find it in brass if possible. THANKS!!

    Need help! Nd pic of SS THDP...

    I recently bought a SS THDP from a vendor and when I compare it with an aluminized THDP off of a friend's car it looks nothing alike (quality, bends, etc). Reason I'm asking for pics is because I think this vendor sold me one of his homemade units and charged me for a THDP. I could have had a...

    TE-44: Needs rebuild?

    Ok, my buddy had this TE44 turbo on his GN. After awhile, just at idle, it would puff white smoke out the tail pipes. Since then, he has had a bunch of work done to the car and has upgraded to a CPT-65 turbo and he still gets a small puff of smoke out the tail pipes. We're thinking it has...
