Re: Running badly after giving gas in gear

One year later, and I'm still struggling with issues. My car runs "okay" now, but has a ~1s hesitation when giving gas in park at idle. My RPMS actually drop for a split second before increasing....

Thanks for the input. I just put on new plugs and wires 1000km ago. Weekend bucket list: clean out injectors, replace fuel filter, try old spark plug wires. If all else fails, I'll replace my janky...

Re: 305 tpi mt throttle hesitation off idle

I had an issue similar to this. Car would bog down before reving up when given gas. It was my MAF sensor relay.

You can check by un-plugging your MAF sensor, and then start the car and see if the...

Running badly after giving gas in gear

Hi all, I've been playing around with my car (87 305 tpi auto) for some time and have not been able to have it running well recently. When I start it, it idles perfectly fine, and is very responsive...

Putting my engine back together and I can't figure out where this pigtail plugs into. It's on an 87 tpi and it's located just behind the driver side valve cover, extending roughly the length to the...

Help decoding flashing engine codes

Wondering if anyone can help me figure out what my car is telling me. I've tried decoding it myself, but the sequence is too fast for me to understand.

Re: 3rd gen Headers

Thank you for the offer, but I've been advised to avoid the flowtechs and similar brands. I'm hoping to find something mid-range.

3rd gen Headers

Looking for a decent pair of shorty headers. Y-Pipe would be nice, but not necessary. Had my eye's on a set of hooker 2460's with a custom made 3" Y pipe, but open to whatever is available!

Could someone run this VIN and post the results?

Edit: JT has scanned it for me!

The site says it has a full build sheet, it's just hidden behind a membership fee :lock:

It's been taken off before I got the car. No build sheet in either side of the trunk wheel wells either.

Re: What year engine do I have? (LB9)

Actually, the car came with a factory LG4, so I doubt any of it was re-used :P And it was a private seller. I had my doubts that it was a 350, but I still hoped. I will check out the intake bolts...
