    I don't want to sound like I'm ungrateful for the site. I even clicked the on where you might upgrade but went to a place that sez no purchasable upgrades. I come here to read up, possibly help some others and such. I understand it takes money to make a site like this run and hosting isn't...

    1984 Buick Grand National Wont Start

    unplug sensor and put you meter across the two connections on the sensor and spin the engine over to see if the sensor is "seeing" the tangs and closing(shorting) as they go by.

    Fuel Tank Sending Unit

    By putting an ohm meter across the leads and moving the float the ohms(resistance) should change. The ohms range is different for digital vs analog dashes.

    Fuel Tank Sending Unit

    Well, I would be reaching out to the retailer you purchased the sender from. Did you put a meter on that sender when you had it back apart and run that float through its range to see it was generating the correct "signal" for the dash to read? Or if it was doing anything? Then check under the...

    1984 Buick Grand National Wont Start

    yes on the check the crank sensor clearance on both sides of all three 'tangs' of the crankshaft piece to avoid any cause damage by hitting the sensor

    1984 Buick Grand National Wont Start

    Well, a volt meter is your friend and learning how to use on to check for voltage and the ohm(resistance) for continuity is essential in trouble shooting a system. Is this a skill you posses or are willing to learn? I like use jumper wires for stuff to put power to things to make sure they are...

    WIN 10 HELP!

    Fortunately for me and my wife our son and his buddies are pretty literate and we get the bennies and encouragement to do a save as with a date or at least a month and yr in four digits at the end of a file name so they can reconstruct the crashes when they happen. He hooked us up with a nifty...

    WIN 10 HELP!

    Just a hd or memory stick can do wonders if one takes the time to create some savings. I hope the wizard or who ever you go to is successful.

    WIN 10 HELP!

    this is why backups and such are so important. hardware dies unexpectedly but if you have the data and the software it can be replaced and up and running. x2 on someone in person to perform some wizardry on it might help.

    Gold T Type

    AFAIK there is no breakdown on colors and such for these cars. I'm not even sure there are numbers for the 87 d84 cars. Even the Kirban thought on "around" 200 of the 1987 Black cars built before the we4 edict that no black units except we4 and we2 would be built is just a guess by Mr Kirban. I...

    Scan master question

    A scanmaster gives you real time inputs that the computer is "seeing" like o2 cross counts, what the maf is "seeing", the long and short term fuel trims, coolant temp and others. Most of the aftermarket is geared toward the intercooler equipped cars so the hot air units are more challenging...
