i fixed my TII today thanks to felix wankel. i made the same mistake he did capping something i wasn't supposed to. i still have about 2hrs worth of work to make the car 100% but it runs real good now with VERY LITTLE smoke. i'm sooooooooo happy right now. i have a working car again WOOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!



i also fixed it at 12:00 so that shows my dedication https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

what did u cap? good work, i think i might have done it, cuz he mention it something to me when i did it....

vosko 08-04-2002 10:40 PM

on the middle housing right where the oil filler is there is a oil recirculation. when i removed the emissions i capped that. it causes soo much smoke not even funny!

vosko 08-05-2002 08:27 AM

Rotarydragon 08-05-2002 09:26 AM

For a second I was thinking: Great not only does Vosko get his car running but he summons dead people to help.



Freaky man.

vosko 08-05-2002 09:41 AM

actually i gotta order a fluidyne or koyo rad. then car will be perfect. i have no shroud for the griffin so it doesn't get any airflow unless its moving. i should have just spent the $$$$ and got the real radiator to begin with. oh well live and learn https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR

Once I move, the car is coming apart to be semi-properly done.

i'd rather have the correct radiator and have it look ALOT less ghetto rigged. right now that is the ONLY thing that looks ghetto under the hood. the body is ghetto but i don't care about the body as long as it goes fast https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Felix Wankel 08-05-2002 09:58 PM

My whole car is ghetto rigged!



(My MSD mount is the box jammed up front with the relays)

felix we are the few the proud the fast ghetto rigged TII's https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Can I join the smokey, fast, ghetto TII club too? My secret is that I use zip ties for everything. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

No, you have to start using more duct tape. electrical tape can be used, but not for electrical applications.

UniqueTII 08-06-2002 11:35 AM

Damn...I knew I should have used duct tape to cover the rust hole in my fender...they even make purple tape.



BTW, the zip ties aren't usually used for wires, if that helps. I use them to hold my exhaust in place, hold the plastic undertray on, hold the front plate on, etc...

vosko 08-06-2002 01:04 PM

my car has quite a few zip ties now https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

haha, my exhaust is ziptied in place too. those things are almost as good as duct tape

vosko 08-06-2002 10:03 PM

I've used a worm gear clamp to replace a ripped exhaust donut. Does that count?
