    Is my EBAY turbo broken????

    Just got it out of the box. The shaft has zero end play side to side, but both wheels have lateral play. Its like the shaft is loose in there but somehow has no endplay. It seems like the exhaust wheel could hit the inside of the housing, but there are no scratches. The boost side is not as...

    Highway drive with no fluid in rear, what did I do?

    I was in an emergency situation, so when I heard the whirring sound on the highway and the burnt oil and clutch smell I had to keep driving for like 35 minutes. The rest of the fluid came out after I parked it but I burnt some stuff up for sure. I refilled it and noticed no metal in the rear...

    at or above 175 engine temp car misses and bucks

    it does it right as the boost comes on, during light accel. If I can give it more gas it seems to break through and be OK. From what I have read , its doesnt seem to be tip in stumble, its later that that. The temp correlation is what really confuses me. What sensors could be getting messed...

    getting way hotter than it should for only 80 outside

    just seems really ineffeciant. Cool outside temps it opens at 160, and stays around there. But when its hotter, it runs in the 190's even on the highway. The fan is comming on, just seems like the radiator is clogged or messed up? Could the water pump be flowing less than normal? What should I...

    rim choices, and adapters

    with the use of adapters like these, www.wheeladapters.com rather than spacers, can't almost any rim and backspacing work? I am sure these things are not cheap. But a buddy of mine runs a pair of similar adapters made by H&R on his 99 cobra with no problems. Accoding to the pics, they make them...

    Help Quick!..**** the bed 3.5 hours from home

    It sumbles pops and backfires the whole nine yards, cant get out of its own way. Can barely touch the throttle. This used to happen when I first got the car but it always stopped.

    I must have put the wrong stuff in my........you know, inside the diff cover

    It would bind a little now and then around turns. Then I noticed a leak. The last owner had put on a chrome cover and it started leaking. When I fixed it I refilled it with mobil 1 synthetic. Now the rub is really bad. Its a binding, vibrating rub, rub, rub when I go around turns. Did I destroy...

    how many turns of rod is one PSI of boost(usually)

    I have just started to mod and tune my 87 using TURBOLINK. I know all the theory behind what I'm doing just have no experience. I seem t get different boost levels once in a while, cant zero in on what I'm doing. So I cant get a handle on how many turns does what. And also what kind of O2 mv...
