Sure interested in additional ideas, as simple sealing of the oil pan fixed the burning. I never saw vacuum conditions on the crankcase while idling....
explanation I don't have a physics explanation. Several mechanics that thought it was a leaking intake said that anytime a crankcase is under...
Issue Solved! Turns out it was a very badly installed oil pan gasket! Leaked so bad that allowed air to be sucked into the crankcase, causing oil...
intake leak Mechanic said it sounds like an intake manifold leak, to check this by plugging off the PCV and checking for vacuum conditions at the...
Having same blowby (blue smoke) condition after installing new short block. Its strong enough to deeply annoy anyone following behind when I'm under...
I bought some high flow used heads. In order to cleand them up I pulled the valve out. It felt bad coming out, seemed like small pieces of brass...
My ECM recorded a Code 42 error. Tlink reference states that the under EST condition, the ECM applies 5V to the Bypass line and expects voltage...
I was also seeing intermittent "burps" on Turbolink (~1 per 25 frames) that indicated low battery (down to 0 volts). Couldn't catch it (verify it)...
0.42 TPS, I had IAC as low as 15 with low fuel pressure (25psi), but I when I adjusted the fuel pressure back up to 35 psi to avoid stalling, IAC...
Injectors are 009s. Chip was Joe Lubrant's emissions chip. Joe has cut me several chips for these injectors, mostly to try to make it run leaner....

Gettin closer but no tamale! After failing the IM240 test 4 times previously (extremely high HC and CO), I've managed to pass HC but still quite high...
Frames/Sec If the ECM processor speed is limited to 1.4 frames/sec how does DS get 18? -Brad 87TR
Looking for feedback on 02 readings. I get periodic (every 10 or so frames) 02 readings that are very low, e.g. < 10mv. The rest of the time the...
BLMs I have two chips, both Street and 93 octane. One came with the 009s (used, unknown origin) the other I had Joe Lubrant cut, leaner for my high...
I Failed the IM240 test again (here in CO, high altitude)-High CO (9.0 vs. 3.0 limit) and HC (47 vs 20 limit) indicating too rich. So far I've:...
Frustrated with window adjustment. Followed procedure in GM manual, still get massive air leaks. Rubber is stock but looks good. Window doesn't seem...
update After reading thru similar threads, I see others passed with 009s, but with an emissions test chip. Where do I get one? My test results:...
So I failed the smog test miserably in CO (a dyno type test). I failed HC and CO badly passed easily on NOx. I have tried 3 of the Bosch O2 sensors,...
