Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Wheels, Drop, & Tint soon to come

Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

Visual inspection or no inspection for your state? If not may as well go 3inch no cat
 


Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

cel check, gas cap, and visual but no one looks for the cat and if the did i'll just tell them its between the rear manifold and exhaust tunnel lol.i want a used 3in cat-less with o2 bung from zzp. BUT i cant find any
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

They offroad pipes are cheap compared to the catted. My new catted one and o2 extension I ordered my self for Xmas was like 200 bucks
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

I don't want to go completely cheap but if I do a 3" cat and a plog I might as well get headers
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

Yeah that's true. The only reason I went this route is cause I'm NA and plan on staying that way. And I didn't want the pain of installing headers I did it once on a diff car. Never again
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

Well I need some advise, I know FiveFingerDeathPunch is always answering these questions. I know because I've been researching since 7 this morning.
I read about midway through because these were the codes I had minus the bbv solenoid. I don't believe I have the same issue

codes:
p0300
p0304
p1401

http://www.grandprixforums.net/showthread.php?t=83519&highlight=p0304
problem-
*rough idle
*0 loss of power in first gear past 4k rpm
*25% loss of power in the upper band in 2nd gear
*cannot continue accelerating in 3rd gear after 3k rpm

checked so far-
-plugs are AL 606's installed less than 5 weeks ago
-checked to see if cat was plugged (cut pipe before cat, and re-sealed with 2.5 band clamp) {silly but functional test. I know the forward o2 would have been less mess but dp is going to be replaced}
-checked for vacuum leaks and found that the car ran no differently with the FPR vacuum line removed. although there was vac in the line, idk if its the right amount of draw.

haven't checked yet-
-MAF
-I got Carb cleaner to check UIM & LIM
-re-check plugs and vacuum lines again

Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day



similar idle to this minus the stall out, mine has never died at idle
mine also hovers between 475-800 bouncing between
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

I read that a lot in your posts, helping out. would this also cause the hitting a wall feature recently added at WOT in 2nd issue?
I can pull like hell in first but when there's more load I cant pull past 4k in the higher gears.
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

well, pulled the plugs out and checked gap and realized they were platinums, they were a freebie from o'reilly's but I think they are the culprit.

will some one explain why the are bad for the L67's? other than they don't get along with our ignitions as I've read over, and over, and over again...
 


Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Great Toilet Paper, 'cause she sh!ts all Day

yesterday
-I replaced vacuum lines only found the bbv solenoid vac line leaking
-sprayed the hell out of the lim & uim with carb cleaner
-checked plugs
-ran seafoam through the BBoster
-ran without the MAF plugged in(tried wouldn't run)
-checked plug-wires
-swapped coils around

it still has a high load miss but runs a hellof a lot better and a bit smoother idle

Sounds like you need a new car lol. I guess before doing anything else I would check to see if the motor is good or bad
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Hole-In-Head-MOD soon to come

I think I will get the magnum and keep the bish too. the magnum has just about everything I would do to it already in place. I will just use the gp as a DD after I get some things fixed.
 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Hole-In-Head-MOD soon to come

put the poly mounts in and got detailed the other day







 
Re: Fat N' Sassy <98 GTP> Hole-In-Head-MOD soon to come

Still a good looking car, even with a hella sh1t list. That's why I keep my gold bish. Also DAT WHINE!!!
