    Connector for Cam Position Sensor?

    It's a standard 3 cavity Weatherpack with a different keyway. You have a couple options: 1) Caspers should be able to sell you the one you need. Might be expensiver, but probbaly not after you consider the level of effort for option 2 below. 2) Replace BOTH ends with standard Weatherpack...

    Installing TA Performance Header-Need RTV Gasket?

    Remflex works great unless your valve covers leak. The oil breaks the gasket down and they'll fail. The Copper spray will only work if the surfaces are really smooth, it doesn't have much ability to fill gaps and irregularities. Any pitting on the head or the manifold flange and you can get a...

    Considering selling my GN, am I dreaming on a 60k price?

    Funny story with my car: It was owned by a friend of a friend, and when he decided he was tired of it, his kids started fighting over it. So he sold it to the local Pontiac Dealer and told them that if they wanted it so bad, they could argue about it at the dealership. I got there first. Which...

    Vac. Block Gasket?

    It is, and why would it be different? The pattern on the throttlebody doesn't change because you've replace the vacuum block.

    Delco Radio Repair

    Common problem. Design defect. They did that brand new. Most solve it by pulling the unit and putting it on the shelf until it's time to sell the car. The tape carrier was made by Blaupunkt, and they've gone right in the shitter in the intervening decades, so there's very little in the realm of...

    Adjustable fuel pressure regulator question

    You've gotten good advice. I'm going to reinforce it. Fluids belong where they belong. If you see them where they don't belong, something is off.

    Proper Fuel line sizing

    No. Even if it doesn't overwhelm the return and cause a pressure control problem, it'll unnecessarily heat the fuel.

    Spoolfool's Christmas time contest.

    Good luck with that. They sold me wheels that weren't round once upon a time. Don't know if it was a manufacturing problem or they got beat up in shipping. They wouldn't replace, they had me ship them back and they beat them to within their "acceptable spec" for runout, polished them up, and...

    Working on getting my tranny back in and have a question?

    There is a thing as specific Automatic Transmission hose. Regular fuel hose doesn't have the same pressure rating.

    Derale external transmission oil cooler

    There's only one place to mount one where it'll get any airflow, and without airflow it's a heat sink, not a radiator.

    Physics. The wheels are gyroscopes. So unless you turn or hit a bump, the wheel is going to say upright and moving along with the car until it stops spinning and either falls over or gets stuck under the car.

    Fuel vapor cannister replacement

    Don't overthink it. Just get a parts store replacement. It's not a performance item, and any aftermarket unit is going to incur extra cost because you'll have to use something other than the factory rubber vacuum lines to hook it up.

    Spoolfool's Christmas time contest.

    Carnage! I have a carnage story. Not a buick, though you didn't specify. It was a turbo V6 though. 1994 Ford Probe. I ran this car from 2019 until I sold it in 2024. The engine had almost 300,000 miles on it, so naturally I threw an Ebay kit at it and doubled its output. At the 2021 Pine...
