That's what I thought. Just wanted to be sure I understood. I have an aftermarket exhaust and the thermocouples probes are disconnected. I...
Do the slow down thermocouples at the cats effect ignition timing in any way? I thought the ignition advance is changed by the Multiplex when...
Yes, that's exactly what I did. BTW, the battery is a brand new optima. I checked the battery ground cable, but have not checked the alternator to...
You are right of course. Like I said I am grasping at straws because I have gone over all that several times to no avail. Every part of every...
Thanks everyone for advice. I have been dealing with this rough idle problem for years. Believe me when I tell you that I have tried everything...
I have an 81 GTSi and I have been having a problem for years now with my left bank running rough at idle. The problem clears up around 1800 rpms....
I think that your idea should work fine. The only drawback I see is that you will still be using the relays in the fuse panels in a serial...
Regarding my earlier post, wrapping of headers is currently done to boost power. However, I don't remember it being a common practice at the time...
Does anyone know if the intake manifolds (the runner tubes, not the plenum) be interchanged between carb, 2V FI and 3.2 QV? I am talking about...

I am having the opposite problem. I don't smell coolent, but I am constantly wiping a clear oily film off the inside of my windshield. I can only...
The reason for wrapping headers and exhaust pipes with kevlar (nomex) tape is that it prevents the exhaust gases from cooling before they exit the...
Thanks for your input. I think the way to proceed is to replace the obviously damaged coil, and proceed from there. If there is another issue, I...
Yesterday the front bank went out on my 81 GTSi, but the rear bank was still running perfectly. I noticed that the front coil is cracked, and...
I though about that but I didn't think I could get a wrench in there with the alternator still in place. I'll try again. Maybe I need a stubby wrench.
I tried to remove the alternator from my '81 GTSi today. I say try, because I could not remove the long mounting bolt do to it running into the...
Anyone renting or lending the camshaft locking tool for a 2V 308? Thanks in advance.
That is exactly the info I was looking for. Did you have any trouble removing the cam gear?
As I mentioned in the original post, I already checked the valve clearances and they were all within spec so I was hoping to avoid pulling the...
Referring to my last post, I am hoping that I can replace the cam seal without removing the cam by taking off the timing gear. Does anyone know if...
