Finally logged back in after several years. Forgot password and email address was VERY old. Formerly known as sfiturbo from the early 2000’s. Always scanned posts here but could not reply 😡.

Started the car today preparing for a spring ride and found I only have 20 PSI of fuel pressure. Pump is a Walbro 340 with hotwire kit about 2 years old with an Accufab FPR. Never changed any settings from last time it ran normal (4 months ago) and it has fresh fuel. Adjusting makes no change...

Life taking a different direction so my hard top must go... 1987 GN on going project Car has had rust issues but repairs have been made over the years. This car is a driver condition, but solid over all. Engine was rebuilt to stock specs with probably less than 5k miles. Stock turbo with 42lb...

Any TB owners in the Rome GA area??? Looking for potential cruise/victim spots. Just bought a vacation home in Cave Spring and plan on local cruise-ins and hang out spots for the weekend "entertainment".

What is the replacement for the filter sock for a Walbro 340m? Local parts guys couldn't find a replacement on the shelf. It is a 22 or 22.3 mm(my eyes aren't so good any more), I just don't remember the suitable replacement. Side note....ethanol is devastating on rubber fuel parts...literally...

Local car in case any ones looking... 1971 buick Grandsport/skylark. Runs great, i have had it for awhile but my job is across town and i just need something with better gas MPG. Black and white. Yes there is power steering. Yes it has air conditioning its just not hooked up as of right now...

O.K.....here it goes.... My wife has this weird life long dream of ..... riding an ostrich. I promised her that if someone factually knew of a place in the continental U.S.A. that she could do this, I would take her. Soooo, if anyone can even point me in the general location of where this...

While e-strolling through 80's music memories I ran across this: YouTube - Michael Schenker Group - Captain Nemo and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TIq6GwejJE&feature=related

My son wants some honest feedback for his newest band, not my type of music mind you, but he is a hell of a guitar player. Starts some tour in January in which I will probably be supporting his butt financially:mad: With as much as WE (and I use that term loosely) have in equipment, he better...

WOOT!!! This baby's mine!!! I just hope the Nigerian banking system accepts money orders!!eBay Motors: Buick : Grand National (item 170140454522 end time Aug-21-07 05:08:01 PDT) WON'T THESE IDIOTS EVER LEARN:mad: I'm sick of reporting fradulent adds.

Found this on my favorites list, for those that have not seen them.... http://www.krif.com/tta/Movies/ Gets the blood flowing for the upcoming season of laying waste to all comers:biggrin:

The tranny in my car seems to hold the car back under "normal acceleration" when at normal operating temps. Still shifts firm and no slipping when cold or warm. Lock up working also. Has the feeling of brakes dragging. Fluid and filter changed with no problems noted. Stock BRF and converter...

Thanks to the guy that painted my car (long story) I now have a fried pump on the first generation SMC system. I didn't even get 12 oz of use from it! While troubleshooting , I smoked the controller also.(that waffle looking thing in the bottom :confused: )I was thinking about just wiring in a...

Figured I'd post this so at least I'd know where to find it. Hers is on the left, mine on the right.

This looks alittle suspicious: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1987-Grand-National-3-8-Turbo-motor-Tranny-Computer_W0QQitemZ8026255789QQcategoryZ33615QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Seems like the engine bay looks too neat to be parting out a 24k mile car.

Whoa, those things are pretty quick off the line (Porche 911 Turbo). One just got me by a car and a half while driving the wifes car. Spinning in 1st and 2nd didn't help me any. Next time I'd better have it set on "kill" or I'll be hanging my head in shame.(or maybe it's time for some more...

Having trouble decoding the RPO sticker on the wifes 87 GN for the suspension. The other site was helpful, but some of what I have isn't listed, ie.. FFL. An indicater comes on at start "car is leveling". There are a few others also,but this is the one that bugs me! Any ideas?

OK, replaced O2 sensor when #13 came up and after a trip around the block a few times #45 showed on the SES. Other than a stumble at part throttle, it runs fine. No other codes (yet). Any way to do some basic checks with a multimeter and handtools?

Just finished engine freshen up (std rings,bearings,gaskets,timing chain,etc.,). All measurements within specs, everything by the book. I now have a rough idle and seems to be somewhat rich. Unfortunatly, I have only the usual shade tree tools available. Pulling 16# of vacuum at idle and no...
