Re: New Owner of 90 in Cali! - Failed Smog :(

new o2 sensors will help the nox. Also, it would be almost rare to find a zr-1 that hasn't been 'chipped' so the extra ign timing programmed into that might elevate nox as well.

well worn...

Re: Hesitation than cleared itself

I had encountered poor driveability when the weather changed and I was still on winter blend calif gas when we had an 80 degree warm spell in February. Run through a tank before you spend any money

Re: Brake fluid vs. Power Steering fluid?

Saginaw steering pumps are pretty durable outside of particulate contamination. Brake fluid is more like a glycerine...I wonder if it dissolved in solution or if it is more like water and oil.

Re: Went to the drag strip

Former owner of #1673...The Watson headers with the longer primaries may have cut faster trap speeds than the OBX mid length units you are running now....I forgot to bring that up when we were...

Re: 1 3/4" vs. 2" Header Size

Re: High searching Idle

These throttle bodies and the pcv vent bypass too much air an it is hard to get a positive IAC number. I was able to get a value of 10-20 on the iac counts after I restricted the diameter of the pcv...

Re: High searching Idle

well, since you have eliminated the outside hose connections, it sure sounds like the hard plastic curly-q under plenum hose has popped off. It goes to the gas tank purge solenoid. The leak is big...

Re: Shipping a Targa Top

Re: Sometimes I wonder...

A stock coyote car will beat a zr-1 up to about 100 mph. I used to have both and I lost to my own mustang with my friend driving it like he stole it. Once you put headers on an LT5... well, then I...

Re: So I had a bit of blowby...

As far as the trans leak goes- Mine leaked out the tail-housing, but it wasn't the lip seal...it was the metal plug in the end of the driveshaft yoke that was leaking.
