    My answer to the expensive positive battery cable replacement problem

    I built a positive battery cable using 2 gauge starter cable instead of the normal 4 gauge, a 6 gauge alternator wire instead of the normal (I think) 8 gauge and a top mount terminal instead of the side mount. Everything was soldered and insulated and I think it came out looking pretty good...

    high veh. speed reading on computer, earlyy TCC lockup

    I replaced the VSS (the optical sensor and blue/green rectagular box) because my speed according to Tlink was jumping all over the place and causing the TCC to lock and unlock. Now the speed according to the computer is high as compared to actual road speed, so now the tcc is locking up early...

    VSS removal question

    To get to the VSS (the green box with the led at the end of the 3 wires) in order to R&R it, do I need to remove the speedo cluster? Or can it be gotten to by going under the dash or through the radio hole in the dash. Thanks Adam

    2-3 shift tcc locking/unlocking until I accelerate

    At the 2/3 shift if I am just cruising around town the tcc will lock and unlock as if it is hunting for the right place to be. If I accelerate quickly this does not happen, also if I press the brake pedal slightly it does not happen. At highway speed the tcc works fine. Also, I have adjusted...

    Fast forward a week or so from the previous post and I did the install into the carpeted area of the door panels. They fit perfectly with the cones fitting exactly in front of the window motor. If I had used regular 4x6's the woofer would have been to far back. Here are the speakers that I...

    ideas about 4x6 plate speakers in door panels?

    I was at the speaker store last night and listened to some of the 4x6 plate speakers that they had. They sounded very nice, went home and measured my lower carpeted non-CS door panels. They were just over 4" wide. These plate speakers have a depth of just over 2". Would it be a problem fit...

    a/c compressor spacer?

    Is there a spacer that is supposed to be used when installing an a/c compressor? I see the first part listed as this in the gn/ttype listing of parts numbers. It lists the spacer as being .030". When I redid the a/c a spacer did not come off. Could this be why I've got a low speed...
