What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0



Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

Fixed the connection issue with my reverse lights on the 02. Gm designed the connector with pins inside it, that corrode and get a bad connection. Figured out how to take it apart, cleaned, dielectric grease, and reinstalled. Nice and bright again.

My right muffler has been rattling for years under certain rpms, got under there and hit it. Sounds like something is rolling around in there. Look inside through the tip, and yep. One of the tubes rusted off and is just rolling around. Gotta find a way to take it out or something.

And finally for now, the left outer CV boot barfed all over. Gonna replace the boot on that. Bought an outer back when I did the inner, but didn't replace it because I just decided not to lol. Well now it will get done.

All for now, all on the 02.

I accidentally made mine barf... with a drill bit... lol

I went with replacing ball joints instead of complete control arms, like a dummy, and when I finally broke through the last rivet went straight into the boot.

I still have the replacement boot I bought... just never had a chance to put it on before the move from Germany, joint got full of salt water during the trip and I ended up just replacing the axle. After that, it will make a weird, faint whining/almost grinding noise during a sharp right hand turn... Brand new OEM are gonna get plopped in on both sides once I have the cash. Car still moves, though.
 
Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

Smuts put my 1.9s and 42.5# injectors on my kar.

I setup an IFR table that was good. Then we went out tuning it was running a tad lean but we added some timing. Next pull saw like 1000mV on the 02. Wtf? Leaned it out and nothing changed. Whatever I'll fix it when I'm home. Go to leave -22.7 LTFTs, keep driving thinking it'll learn maybe. Get about 30 miles down the road and realized I flashed the IFR table on my laptop and dan used a bin with a stock IFR table to add timing that he had of mine on his laptop. So I drove 280 miles home with 42.5s on a stock IFR table and still got 27 MPGs with the air on. LTFTs stayed mostly around -18 to -22.7. Works for me lol

i did that to a guy remote tuning, only i forgot he had 42 injectors and set him up as stock lol thank god hes got a tuner.

you can do that with dan too. send him a scan via email and he can make changes and send it back. you flash it then.

Yep e85, few stations in town so I'll give it a shot. Then mps hub and the almighty 3.4

Was adding some timing in a buddy's car today to per his request . He's on a 3.25 that's 5% OD, e85, SDs, 1.9s. Had him up to 18* of timing from 16, it was going pretty lean like 850mV still only saw .5* of knock. He's on stock pump no rewire figured that might be his problem.

Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

i bet you could run a 3.2 on corn easy and raise the timing. id get a fuel pump tho.

for your gas tune, i could send you my bin and you could copy my files over. i got em set up pretty damn good right now. ive got like time invested in that f ing file lol
 
Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

I told dan if I can't run a 3.4 on like 18-20* I'm burning it lol

Never trust o2 mv for fueling at WOT, ever.

If you friend is seriously on a 3.25 with E85 and no wideband, he is an idiot.
 


Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

on corn he should hit 18.

that tonkin guy, hes got the ssm90 lim and blower, ported na heads, a 20 over rebuilt na block and hes doing 18º timing with a 3.3 kr free on gas.
