Re: 1992 GMC TYPHOON South San Jose Last four digits of the VIN.

Re: Aluminum air deflector Interested. If the evaluation is positive I will buy one. Subscribed!

Re: 92 typhoon part out Re: 92 typhoon part out Do you have the remote keyless entry receiver (inside the center console). If so does it work? I'm looking for one from a 92 and will buy it provided it works.

I've been chasing an issue with the coolant temperature gauge doing weird things and initially making me go crazy thinking the Ty is overheating. I think the coolant temperature sensor that goes in the driver's side head or the connector is going bad. The symptom is with the Ty warmed up the...

Re: Syclone #1044 on Ebay The front license plate is in a horrible location. It's blocking the air going to the lower intercooler.

Re: Where is the orifice tube located? I"ve seen both terms related to the accumulator and get what you are saying about the orifice filter is actually not the tube. The orifice filter came with the kit I purchased and figured it can't hurt to replace it if I have a new one. The other one...

Re: Where is the orifice tube located? Thanks, much appreciated! I've replaced drier and AC compressor. Once I get the orifice tube replaced I'll be taking the Ty to a shop to evacuate and recharge the system.

Re: Stock sy chip Call Tom at SportMachines. I just bought one a few weeks ago.

Re: Electrical issues??? Pretty sure I figured out my problem. The center core button on the distriutor cap that contacts the rotor button was wore down to it was flush with the surrounding plastic of the cap. Considering I haven't owned a vehicle with a distributor cap since the late 90s, I...

Re: Electrical issues??? How did you determine that your memcal went bad?

Re: Electrical issues??? Took a chance a drove the Ty today. The ride into work was nice and smooth but when I went to lunch I wasn't so lucky. It really sucks to push a vehicle in dress shoes with a bum foot to boot. What was I thinking???? Got her started back up and back to my office and...

Re: Electrical issues??? The MSD coil tested out good and fuel pressure was good but I kind of expected it since its an intermittent issue. Took the truck for a drive and about 2 minutes in it dies again. I get it started up and safely back home. I bought an Accel coil and replaced the MSD...

Re: Electrical issues??? The though crossed my mind but I would think if it was a fuel pump issue it would sputter before it dies not just shut off so abruptly. Regardless I will also be checking for fuel pressure as well this evening. Thanks for the input.
