  1. Noise and poor o2 readings, depends on where the holes are. I just cut out the muffler and straight piped it with the cat. Seems to run better. Not noticeable mpg loss, except from me flooring it everywhere now, cause it sounds good.
  2. I have two mounted onto my arm rest. Not the best looking thing but it seems to work well enough.
  3. I think I fixed it. I saw a leak from fuel rails and fixed it. Also fixed a vacuum leak. The problem seems to be gone haven't had it for a few days. And it was under hard acceleration. I guess I have to wait for a few days if it comes back.
  4. Finally get snow to start falling at my place, time to go mess around.

  5. Exact same transmission as it bolts to the same stuff, but I believe the gearing is a bit shorter, so a tad more efficient. But don't take my word for it.
  6. It's that one, still can't seem to find the problem. One of the senor might still be bad but I tested them and they worked alright.
  7. If you end up getting a 95 or older. Overfilling is a must as I found out too late. I'm due for a rebuild or a new Trans when this one finally goes.
  8. I unplugged the IAC, EGR, and of sensor but it didn't change anything kind of made it worse till I put them back on. I did each one separately. Haven't gotten to test the CTS, but I will. I think I have narrowed it down a bit. I smelt raw fuel under the hood, and saw what looked wet. Let it sit till after work and it had evaporated. Now I think that it might be a cracked line or loss fitting somewhere. I might have just found my answer, time to go digging again.
  9. Went and got a new exhaust on her. Has a nice sound and really throaty, but not much drone at all.
  10. I'll check what I can when I can, I'm still going to go with the whole exhaust thing since it's super rust and has holes everywhere.
  11. The only thing I can think of is the exhaust. I know I need a whole new exhaust but I've decided to go put a new cat and o2 sensor, be it the problem or not, this monday. That is the only thing I can think of, as it super old and has no previous records from the PO for exhaust work.
  12. Cleaned the maf, and tb. Wiggled all the connectors and have only pulled a 55. I am stuck, and almost at a stand still. I'm bout ready to get a full diagnostic done to find all that is wrong, if any. Now I don't know if the o2 senor is bad or not. I will unplug it tomorrow.
  13. So I have got even more confused. I replaced the fuel and air, checked the plugs and wires. Every once in awhile I feel like the vehicle loses power. I can slowly bring the revs up but if I push for it to accelerate it losses Rev's but I can hear the engine under power. It also has a very small bucking sensation. I was hoping it was the plugs but it all checks out. Now I'm even more confused. Before I bring this thing in what else could cause this? Still smells rich. All I can think of now, is that my cat. is clogged and causing to much pressure.
  14. I'm doing a tune up soon. I also saw a rip in my air duct behind the MAF. So I need to repair or get a new one of those.
  15. I went and sprayed the TB, MAF and changed the FF. I also realized I'm missing those little metal clips of many of the plugs out there. Like on the Temp sensor. So I need to get for fab some.
  16. Sat and looked at my bag of parts, but can't throw them on till I'm off bed rest.
  17. I can't really say it's back or blue but it has a color. It smells rich which is most likely the problem, I'll pick up a filter and MAF cleaner today.
  18. Put on a new pcv valve, and got stumped on why my rig is acting up.
  19. I'm getting code 55 so nothing wrong there.
  20. Before I dig and waste money, I want opinions. It's cold but my car started really rough, but ran fine at idle. After it warmed, I tried to drive it. When I pushed on the gas the revs drop crazy fast and it dies. I can pushed very slow to climb in the revs but when pushed fast or normally it dies. I can't seem to recall what blue smoke means, IIRC it means rich. But the exhaust had a very slight blue hue to it. So after my info, what do you guys think?
  21. Do you have photo from the back end of the bumper? Would like to see how to reinforced the thing
  22. The weather opened up enough for me to install my MM hubs. Also got to do a quick test, worked flawlessly.
  23. Is it getting gas? Pop out one end of the fuel filter and check that when you can.
  24. Bad battery connection, or wire along the circuit. Mine reset when I had a bad connection.
  25. The superlift are one of the UCA'S that are designed to sit flat when cranked. Yes they will work.
