What Charlie said, +1. Also, have all of the plugs out when you do this, and disconnect the connector from the coil pack module. That will prevent...
I'm beginning to wonder if the alky system isn't coming up to pressure quickly enough. Even on the roll-into-the-throttle times the knock sensor is...
QA1 recommends the anti-seize, which is what I used. I don't think that WD40 would be a good choice. It is a water displacer, not a lubricant....
HouTX87, pull the plugs and check them for speckling. If the detonation is light it will show up as black specks on the center porcelain. If the...
Went smaller, used a brass T, soldered a small plug in the end and drilled the .021" orifice. The orifice limits the volume of boost pressure...
Started working on the waste gate control. From the little testing we were able to do, it works. Only area that had to be changed is the orifice in...
wh1-t, I believe I've given you some bad info concerning TDC #1 and the dots. The thing that rattled the gray matter is your first post where you...
Before the cam chain is installed the short block #1 cylinder piston is at the top every 360* of crank revolution. But neither is considered TDC...
No need to pull the valve cover. Install the crank gear with the dot at 12 o'clock. And the cam gear at 6 o'clock. Make sure that they are lined up...
Odds are the vehicle speed limiter is set high (255/254 MPH). Good possibility, as mentioned, that the boost is set a little higher too....
In that regard I believe you are correct. There are T emblems on the car, with the ad listing it as both a t-type and a Grand National. Has to be...
The angles on the vents are all wrong. The back edge angle doesn't match the angle of the door to fender line. The front edge angle to too severe....
I've done heater cores on a '78 El Camino (a g-body), and both a '85 and '87 Regal. Been awhile but they are easy, and were all the same. Remove...
This is the fitting for the feed line to adapt it to -6 AN male: 9894DBJ 16mm x 1.5 -6AN . . . . Fuel Injection / Power Steering Adapter. Female...
Look for a box or such back in the rear area of the car. A blue wire on the ECM may be the TPS, which can be used to turn on another fuel pump. There...
Bob, are the 'bent' head gaskets up for sale, or are they already on the garage wall of fame? :) RemoveBeforeFlight P.S. you didn't really think...
I picked one up at a pep-boys for something around $15. Don't try a 2 or 3 jaw puller, it will wreak the pulley. The proper one does a 360* wrap...
And a graph of each the '87 TR and the '89 TTA main SA tables. Note how much smoother the TTA SA table is. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] RemoveBeforeFlight
Here is the timing tables (main & PE mode) from a '87 TR. This is from ACXA, which was released for the '87 MY, and it also matches BBKJ which...
I posted the A/C wiring diagrams on post 17 of this thread:...
