I hope it is not cracked, that c**k sucker is expensive.

Well, it looks like my vacuum is up, but there is still fuel flowing from the end of the fuel rail. What is that sensor there? I may have to replace the o ring on that thing.

Yeah, the fuel pressure sensor.

Okay, I finally had a few to crack it open a bit. I ohm'd out the injectors and they seemed to be all the same within normal range. When I removed the harness I noticed a smell of fuel. At that point I removed the fuel rail. Inspected the O rings and noticed some really old crusty O rings that were ...

Let's just say I'm not too worried about the "cat".

It its black that means rich. Oil smoke is blueish. Under load it burns rich. I think you have a mass air flow that shit the bed. With out a scan tool handy i cant see it. But i have a scan tool but your there and im here. Any way, there are two sensors in the maf a baro sensor and the air mass sen...

And now it all don't make a F**K anyway. The car is blowing so much black smoke right now I'm not driving it. It clears up once I am up t speed, but those people that like to get right on my bumper at stop lights get a nice puff of oil in their faces. Any ideas on this one boys? I may start taking o...

I will give my maf a cleaning, I'm pretty sure it is not the cat though. Fuel pump isn't that old either.

N/A, No EGR, No codes

Okay, I can't win with this friggen thing. The car feels like it is bogging/surging, not major but as I ease into the gas it seems to stutter, not mjaor mind you, just enough to barely feel. That is what usually happens. Then there are times where it reacts like I hit the rev limiter. I have a ricer...

focinite, start that last sentence with, "you might can" and it will sound way more southern. For example: "you might can jam some of the jb indair. Give yer selv bout ate-tein ours er sew. Shill be rite as a coon hound in rane.

I have a similar oil leak. I am going to have to deal with it once the weather gets better and the turbofication commences. I am going through a ton of oil right now.

I got the car in to Stellar Autoworks this morning to get the alignment taken care of. Great service and lots of happy customers there. Many of the customers I saw and spoke with were returning customers that had nothing but really good things to say. My car tracks awesome and they gave me a print o...

Sounds like fun, looks like 4 doors, again. Whatever happened to 2 door hot hatches in the US?

Justin, that is what I will end up doing. In the midst of getting the car cleaned up right now. Lots of painting to do before she goes back together, and every time I remove something I find another issue. She's almost 11 years old so, what can you do. I want to keep her running.
