    Rich Or Lean ? ?

    Usually, an aftermarket shifter is made of better metal than the stock shifter and tends to transfer more noise from the gearbox than the stock. I went through this as well, but have had no tranny problems to date. (the shifter's been on the car for 4 years or more). As for telling if you...

    Is it my TPS

    Thanks Dan. I've pretty much ruled out the timing and tuning issue, due to the fact that it just started it suddenly, and used to run like a scared child up to this point. I would love to do the dyno tune and rid myself of the chip in case it has actually gone bad (which is always possible)...

    Is it my TPS

    I've heard those things tend to go south quite often. Think I'll drag out the voltmeter and check it......and get a new one anyway.

    Is it my TPS

    Not really a bucking surge, but rather when I have it hammered, I can actually barely back off the throttle a bit, and the car will rev quicker, like it used to. Kinda like a carbeurated car that is way rich on top end......

    TPS voltage / Plenum & TB Install

    It should be at 4.5 - 5 volts at WOT. That's what the book I have says.

    Is it my TPS

    Allright guys, you gotta help me on this one. All of a sudden, my car has developed somewhat of a surge on top end when I have it "hammered." So far, I've eliminated any possible vacuum leaks. My next try was going to be a new fuel filter. If that didn't help, I was going to pull the...

    Autometer Lunar Cluster

    I think it's quite dumb myself that they didn't make one for the 98's. I guess it goes to show that everything from 99 on is better..... :bang:

    Bumpsteer...What is it exactly??

    Intersting.....I have noticed though, that during normal driving when I hit some bumps & such that the car likes to "dart" a bit. Nothing major, but a little annoying. Have noticed as well when going over the mountain roads, when I do have it under a load it can get away from you if you hit a...

    New to the game, Need Help!!!

    I'd start out with a K&N filter, then a shifter, then it just depends on what you're wanting from that point on.....looks, or power. If power, get some exhaust and some gears.....if looks....you can go way wild....... Don't waste time with alot of bolt ons......research them all thoroughly...

    What kind of Oil do you use?

    I'm not going to start a oil war here, but I honestly read that if you kept the oil changed on schedule, a synthetic really offered no advantage over a conventional oil, except for better flow at colder temperatures. In my honest opinion, unless you have some seriously built racing engine...

    Bumpsteer...What is it exactly??

    So that explains all that herky jerky motion on a rough road. Would I need to do the bumpsteer kit, or bumpsteer kit and balljoints both to remedy this problem?

    Bumpsteer...What is it exactly??

    O.k.....I've got a set of C springs on my car. I've been reading here and there about a condition called "bumpsteer". Can someone elaborate as to what exactly this is..... Plus, would it be wise for me to install the Steeda X2 balljoints?? How about the bumpsteer kit?? If so, what kind of...
