    Work 5758 turbo

    I received mine in January and I'm very happy with the upgrade. Tip # 1 - Don't forget to apply some liquid teflon goop a few threads up from the base thread of the oil feed fitting. Tip #2 - If you're thinking of upgrading to an Alky system, now would be a good time to add a M15 nozzle to your...

    Front Cover Engine Oil Leak - Not what I was expecting

    I needed some extra help (UV dye) pinpointing the source of 1 of 2 oil leaks and found one leak coming from the most unexpected spot (timing tab slot). Has anyone ever delt with a front cover leak in this spot? Should I tap and plug?

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    Went to cold-start the car today and the car won't fire up on the first several attempts. When it does, I have to ride the gas pedal in order to keep it running. I understand that my IAC adjustment required the vehicle to be up to temperature but I figured with the IAC counts being set as...

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    Yes, very helpful and that's one of the sites referenced (including help from forum members like yourself) that got me where I'm at now. I'll continue to put in the work (+ research) but need some guidance to get across the "finish line".

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    Update: I was able to hit the 10 counts, followed by 15 then 20 (20 counts PL file attached for your review). I did not attempt to put it in gear (wanted to end my night on a high note) but assumed it would have stalled if I did (it did previously when IAC counts were at 0 and rpm was low rpm...

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    I can get the car to idle at around 900 rpm with no change to IAC reading (0) but now if I put it in gear, the car stalls. I understand and have adjusted TPS using my SM G. To Confirm: Tonight, I will make the necessary adjustments to the idle air adjustment screw (CW) to keep my car running...

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    So I'll make CCW moves while the car is running, and should not turn off the engine in-between, correct?

    Hot Air Rebuild - Low Engine Vacuum / Zero IAC Reading

    Looking to get a better understanding the what, why, and how (to best proceed) behind low engine vacuum (vacuum break assist related) and IAC readings of zeros after initial engine fire and tune. New engine build consists of: Original iron heads (ported, 3-angle valve job), 409 block, Comp...

    Spoolfool's 2024 open house/ TB swap meet/ Taco party. Saturday October 19th

    Yes, I'm planning on being at the swapmeet. What's the overall condition of the grill? Please send pictures (top, bottom, front, back). Prices for turbo buick parts go from reasonable, to ridiculous. Your part, your price. Just know that I lean towards paying on the reasonable side of the scale.
