  1. went for a run, started sputtering, eventually died out, started back up, ran awhile, started sputtering under load again and died, had to get hauled home. also my rpm tach was going nuts but the engine wasnt matching, also a weird noise comin from under the hood (almost like wires burning), that noise ended up being my main relay, which i switched out for a new one. the weird noise and rpm gauge going nuts stopped, however now i got no fire. I tested resistance on both ignition coils, seem alright, tested for spark directly from the coils with no go, cap and rotor are good, rotors turning, resistance is good on cap, battery is good, cleaned maf about oh a month or 2 ago. btw 88 wd21 z24 thanks ahead of time.
  2. Happy Birthday guys, have a good one
  3. k it was my main relay that was making the noise, cant' find one today, will havta wait till tomorrow and try a new one.
  4. i'll keep that in mind, even tho its not even 6 months old, my buddy has a battery analyzer I can borrow. thanks
  5. im thinkin a bad ground somewhere, thats what im gonna look for first, just curious if anyone else experienced this.
  6. hey guys, went for a run this morning, on my way the pathy started sputtering, dying out, stalled, my rpm gauge was going nuts, jumping up and down (not matching what the engine was doing), it would start up, run for awhile and start doing the same thing. finally last time it died it would not start again, wheneven i turn my key on, I can hear a weird almost burning wire sound comin from under the hood, sounds like its comin from under the air intake, and my rpm needle will go nuts the same time that i hear that god awful sound. no burning smells, anyone have something similar happen?
  7. not sure about the auto hubs as i have manual, but just give the upper balljoint a good whack with a BFH, i've replaced a couple of them on the pathy, I ended up breaking most if not all bolt heads, just whack'er from the top and she should pop out.
  8. bloody nice!! Looks much better with mud
  9. my god im so happy we dont have those tests, lol idle test? wtf they look at our bearings, shocks, struts, UBJ, LBJ's, brakes, lights, windshield, parking brake and tires. and of course no holes in the body I think i'd fail a smog test. I Shouldn't be laffin, my inspection is commin up in feb, gulp.
  10. sorry man, just reread your first post and noticed its an amc20 from an early 80's wagoneer, which is a heavy duty amc20, I thought it was a CJ AMC20, if its from a wagoneer it already has the 1 piece shaft and thicker housing, its a good axle.
  11. welcome! nice,another 2 door if you plan on putting an amc20 on it, i'd suggest getting the moser or yukon 1 piece axle shaft upgrade and trussing the housing, it'll be as strong if not stronger than a d44.
  12. you just called your pathy a car?
