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...

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?

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...

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...

what would cause rod bearings to fail? only two rod bearings went out. i figured while i was in there, might as well replace all the bearings. the rod bearings wore just a little bit down to the copper underneath. the engine was making a terrible racket. the crank looks fine. maybe an oiling...

raced a mercedes s600 from a light last night. i didnt boost launch and i had the wg set to 9psi. i think the specs for those mercedes must be over rated. allegedly they go 0-60 in 4.9. i was very disappointed. maybe it suffered from severe driver error. he tried to play catch up (waits for you...

i stopped down at the machine shop today to look a my engine parts. they had a odd fire crank, 3 5/8 stroke sitting around so i layed it into my block. after seeing how much stronger it looks then the stock gm crank, im kinda thinking this is the way to go. i already have the speedpro efi. what...

snapped another stock $500 crankshaft in less then a year. this time it started out with a knocking sound and rapidly progressed over about 7 seconds into a grinding, rattling, scraping sound. at this point i shut it down. rods r fine, no traces of knock, pistons r good, oil pressure was strong...

i'd like to get the oil pressure up a little bit more. 10-30 seems to thin out too much. at idle the needle hovers just underneath the first mark on the oil gauge. maybe i'll leave it alone...

here's a cooling trick i learned from an old schooler- take washers and place them in between the hood hinge/hood bolts. use enough washers to raise the hood about 1/4" in the back. poor man's cowl hood. i tried it and it works. when the truck is idling you can put your hand above the gap...so...

i just installed a 4 gallon jaz fuel cell in the bed of the truck. the cell is fed to the intercooler pump and then to an atr intercooler. from the intercooler it goes to a griffen lower radiator and the finally back to the fuel cell. the whole system is circulating the water pretty good. now...
