Re: Why won't my fuel pump shut off? The thing is I pulled the pump relay and the pump still runs. It's really nuts!

My oil pressure gauge spun around and now the needle is stuck on the underside of the limit thingy. How do I get it spun back around? Any way to do it without opening the whole assembly?

The fuel pump keeps running no matter what unless I pull the lowest fuse on the left most side (ECM B?) or disconnect the battery. I pulled the fuel pump relay and it still ran...Actually I pulled all the relays and the fuel pump still ran. What the hell is going on? Is it a short. Maybe the...

Could someone please email me a copy of the calcom software for FAST? DOS or Windows. I would very much appreciate it. My laptop took a left. paulcernuto@msn.com

What kind of plugs are you using (part #'s)? What gap? It's time for a tune up. Thanks!

I'm thinking a set of 160lb bosch injectors- http://www.musclemotors.com/ A tank full of of alcohol and some tuning with the wb. Is it that simple? Change programs and switch back to gas when you get home from the track. Drain most out through the fuel rail. Is this nuts or what?

Jeepers, batman. Up to 27*? The most I've ever been able to run without getting some knock was around 21-22*. I do run 91 octane though. What octane are people running to use 27*?

i run 20 degrees with the brodix heads 14-20psi. i think the base timing is off significantly after re-degreeing the cam. i can't find 0 degrees on the fluidampr.

I installed a new roller chain. The old chain was rattling like a mofo. While I was at it I advanced the 422 cam 4 degrees :o :o :o (I know the 422 already has 4 degrees ground into it and it's supposed to be installed straight up so dont give me shit.) All I can say is that it has more low...

I've snapped 2 stock cranks in 2 years. 2 bolt main, eagle rods, trw pistons. No knock. I attribute some of the failure to the t72 turbo pushing 20psi+ and a lead foot, but I could be wrong. From what I understand, the failure is vibration related. Both times the crank broke between #3 and #4...

jwaller is right- The tcc and shift light share the same wire. You can use it for one or the other but not both. So if you want to use the shift light, your gonna have to disable the tcc lock up or you can modify the code to use an unused output for the shift light, and run that to the shift light.

so your saying it will work (plug in and give a reading) but just not be calibrated? i really don't want to shell out 1k for a sensor. that's really nuts. i think the pte one i have in the truck is either damaged or suffering from oil contamination. i bet there's a pot or something inside of...

is the speedpro wideband 02 the same one autozone sells as part# 36531-P07-003? also, how long do these sensors typically last in a daily driver?

i have speedpro with wide band. after a little bit of spirited driving last night, my truck developed a problem. the a/f ratio at idle and cruise has gone way lean according to the wideband. i assumed a vacuum leak. i inspected all the hoses...everything looks fine. i havent checked the gaskets...

leaking intercooler?
