IT STARTED!!

It idles a little high, oil pressure is through the roof and I have a tiny coolant leak, but damn it was nice to hear that TURBO SPOOL!!

And damn playing with the haltech is soooo much fun, ahahaha!

Good Job....

Doesn't sound like too much to fix those problems. Of course everytime I say that on my car it ends up taking hours!

1Revvin7 06-26-2003 07:13 PM

Yes hopefully I can get them sorta out for the car hangout this friday...

zero your timing

1Revvin7 06-27-2003 01:32 AM

Timinging zeroed, water leak fixed, high oil pressure do to faulty sensor.. Yes I am taking these problems out quick, but for some reason the sucker idles high? 1440rpms to be exact, throttle cable is not tight, even unhooked didn't make a difference... I was thinking maybe the TPS is bad? Might check it tommorrow, i printed up the how-to on it. Also i have noticed a little bit of smoke from the turbo after I shut it off, but I had the motor soaked in oil when i first got it to prevent rust or locked...I als just burnt out the rest of the year old gas, going to fill up on 92(93?) octane tommorrow. And the damn fuelpump/fuel pressure regulator are LOUD!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/happy.png But I'm smashed right now.... and Damn this has been one good day, I haven't been this excited/anxious in years.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Turbo II 06-27-2003 12:38 PM

great to hear, find out whats up with that tps. if its bad i have an extra one ill send ya if u need it. dont get to addicted to boost

1Revvin7 06-27-2003 01:19 PM

I already am addicted.. My buddy has been spoiling me with his supra turbo. I'm going to check/replace the oil/water feed gasket on the turbo, they might be the cause of the steam/smoke. I am also going to check the bac idle adjustment and the throttle stop.. To try and change my high idle. Thxs for the compliments
