    Adjusting Koni reds

    Hey guys, I have the adjustable Koni red shocks and struts on my GT vert, but they're ones before they came out with the little knob that makes life easy. Does anyone know the appropriate way to adjust them? Do you just turn the shocks? No clue on the struts. I've lost the instructions, so...

    Vert top won't drop

    Hey guys, I've already checked the motor itself, no prob there. Already swapped relays, they were not the issue. When you press, or pull, the switch on the dash you can gear the relays click. Using a volt meter I discovered that the 12V constant wire on the relay loses 12V when the dash...

    External fuel pump Q's

    Hey, code pulling gave me the "bad fuel pump" code. If I install a Vortech external with a adjustable pressure regulator (free! :banana: )and remove the internal pump by putting an adapter in, will the code go away? If not, will it matter? Bad fuel pump would cause lagging, right? Runs and...
