    Problem Located-distributor will not come out. why?

    Stock reman parts. Well i wanted to move up one tooth because 21 degrees is a lot just to turn the distributer since it is already turned almost all the way to the advanced. So you guys think the cam gear and the distibutor gear got out of alignment. Would I have to replace to Cam?

    Problem Located-distributor will not come out. why?

    The thing will not budge. The car was hot, I had to wear two layers of goves not to burn my elf. The thing will not even twist. What could have caused the problem?

    I need to do a full engine diagnostic! What is standard?

    So I need to do a compression test, fuel pressure test, vaccume test, and timing check. My car is having some serious motor trouble. No power, backfiring, and an "Electric-y grinding noise" As of now i am thinking the best possibility is the timing chain has jumped a tooth. I am going to...

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    Dagger: The first time I wired up the sub i did it on my own and followed the second diagram "which was included with the amp". I still had this same problem, i took it to my friend and while we were trying to figure out what the problem was he rewired it down to 2 ohms. I am going to wire it up...

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    yes it is a dual voice coil. I get what you are saying about wiring it down to four ohms but i would only have half the power into the sub, right? Also so i am not 100% sure about why you said the amp would quit sending a signal to the sub. It now wont send a singal at all weather the car is...

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    The amp is 2 ohm stable and the sub is rated at 2 ohms. If you are right, would a capacitor fix the problem?

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    Well there is acutually penty of room for them to breath. They have internal cooling fans and the are placed under both of my 5x7s on the rear deck, they move a bunch of air. I wouldn't imagine cooling being a problem givin there placement and how cold it has been latly. I have had a lot of...

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    That is the thing, the amp does not turn off it just quits sending a signal to the woofer. So the car does still have enough power to keep it on at all times. I do have a 160 amp 3g alt in the mail. But i dont think that is the problem considering I had my car running and my friends car...

    What could possibly be wrong with my amp?

    So my sub amp works intermitently. It is an audiobahn a6005dn class D. I have it hooked up and it only works half the time. It powers on and off the way it is suposed to weather it is working or not. I have checked ALL of the leads in and out of the amp with a voltometer in both conditions...

    Major engien trouble, codes 87 and 23. Help!

    Well i thought it was my clutch slipping but it wasnt. When I give it gas all the way up to about 75% throttle It feels like i am taking off from about 1000 rpm in fourth gear. This happens all gears, even in 1st and 2nd. When i let off the gas the car sends a bunch of unburnt fuel into the...
