Also does anyone know if there's a way to test/meter a CAS to make sure it's within spec?

http://fc3spro.com/TECH/FAQ/ecutype.html for ecu numbers and yes you can test the CAS with a volt meter as far as the specs are i cant tell you off the top of my head id have to look or you might find it in the fsm

try replacing the water temp sensor on the back of the water pump housing. when i first got my car it ran like ****, we replaced the CAS, injectors, MAF, pressure sensor, TPS, re did grounds fixed wiring and it still ran like ****, basically as if the timing was off. aslo it only did it when the car was warmed up. someone told us to replace that sensor and it cleaned up immediately. so it was just a bad sensor. i dont know why that sensor caused it to run like **** but after replacing it the problem was fixed

thanks for the reply, I had wondered about this as well. I'll try this along with re-timing the car. Are there any aftermarket gauges that will read from the stock sensor or that are more accurate than the factory or should I just use a aftermarket guage and sensor alongside the oem? |
just run a aftermarket gauge and remember always run oem t-stats

woot reset the timing and did the sensor grounding from aaroncake's site and now the car runs like normal......but my front cover is leaking oil. I'm sick of working on this thing. Classes start in 3 weeks and I need a ride for school that I don't need to sink any more money into. If anybody wants a S5 swapped rx7 in the OKC area shoot me an offer or trade

i think the front cover has a seal replace that and you should be fine

Lose the walbro! It flows too much for the stock FPR, raising your fuel pressure, and dumping extra fuel on an engine that runs too rich in factory trim. Sell the walbro, drop in a stock n/a fuel pump.
The front cover gasket is an easy fix. Just read the instructions carefully do you dont drop the thrust bearing when you pull the front pulley hub. |
