Decided to take a cruise over the weekend...since the knock situation has been resolved i slowly brought the boost up to 18psi and still not an ounce of knock...was so happy even that i decided to pull over and snag a couple pics of my girl.

Been here in Rockville for the past 5-6 years. Originally from Va Beach, VA where there are a considerable amount of TR owners in comparison. Met a cool GN owner not too long ago from the NOVA area (actually bought his wheels). Just wondering if anyone was interested in the area to meet up, grab...

im in Rockville, MD.. if you are ever willing to drive up or near the pike, i can meet you somewhere to help out. PM me for my number.

Thank You Hero. Mind quoting me shipping to 20853? Thank you in advance

Trying to finish the car and since the paint job, the only thing cosmetically wrong with the car is the missing side view mirrors. (the actual mirror itself not the housing) During disassembly for paint and replacing the doors, i managed to break the cables that are used to adjust the...

Thanks to all your help guys, today was a revelation. Started out with starting issues *fixed* but when i finally got around to the plugs, i pulled each SOB out, and saw that one of them was split right down the side. Spark couldnt have been insulated. Replaced all 6 with the NGK's that Steve V...

Thanks to all your contributions guys.I simply jacked the car up, got underneath and sure as hell- starter cable was loose. I disconnected the battery, got back under there and tightened her back up. Cranked right up in 2 seconds :) Thanks a ton! You all have never let me down.

found this thread http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/hot-air-non-intercooled-tech/355250-car-wont-start.html going to go and try to crank the engine by jumping the starter...hope im on the right track

Oh yea. I checked this link out from what i found searching but it appears to address the issue with cranking but no firing. Trouble Shooting im starting to think the starter just took a dump...but how..it cranked and drove last week.. grrrr

So, last week i reported to you guys that the car was idling rough etc etc.. cranked fine and drove but sputtered due to my plug change.. Now that my new wires and plugs came from Summit yesterday, i was going to install everything...Before i do anything though, i go outside and try to warm her...

Thanks guys, ordered a new set of plugs and wires from Summitt today. While the engine was running nice and hot i could see the engine shaking very bad and when i put my head closer to the engine, i could hear spark arcing..i moved every spark plug wire a bit and it turned out to be the wire on...

warm and at idle IAC is at 35 TPS is at .38

Well this is the second fillup this month. i got this tank last week and with the old plugs it was doing the same thing. I wish i could see which cylinder was causing this. All of the plugs are clean when i pull them and the wires are a month old. 8mm MSDs and never had a problem with that brand...

I can check.. do i check IAC at idle?

Good catch Nick..my apologies..they are Autolites

Just an FYI - this engine has never seen anything over 15 psi...The engine was rebuilt very well by Steve V on this forum many years ago and only has 35k on it...It sat in my garage for a long time due to funds and since its freshly painted, i have gotten it back on the road.. Turbo spool sounds...

Fresh tank of 93 premium, fresh clean air filter, fuel filter and everything else. Car still pulls timing at 13 psi whether i roll into it or floor it..So i decided to change the plugs today. Picked up 6 AC delco 23s, matched the gap to .035 as the previous ones in the car.... go to start the...

Thanks for your help guys...after lots of fumbling i figured out what the issue was. Looks like when i recently replaced the door before the paint job, the wire sheathing in the door must have rubbed off. Blew the CIG and dash fuses after the wires were rubbing on the door frame. Pulled door...

Thanks Steve, gonna check in a bit.
