  1. I have run out of funds to finish my Conquest. It has a rebuilt motor and new turbo, I had it running and it just died. It has fire and turns over fine. I'm pretty sure it just needs the fuel system cleaned and the tank coated. Asking $1200 Pics and more info are here: http://charlotte.cra...4861911818.html
  2. Can I just connect the module + to the coil + then and work it that way?
  3. Also does the switched 12v + go to the + side of the coil or do I need to run it somewhere else?
  4. I know this is a kind of old post but I am having issues with a weak spark. I have an old 4 pin hei module. When I wire it up do I still leave the knock box hooked up to give the tach signal?
  5. How much for the intake manifold shipped to 29710?
  6. I pulled things apart today so that I can change the valve stem seals. I figured while I was standing there I would check the cam out. I measured 1.625 to 1.637 on the lobes. This out of spec for a stock cam. Is there an aftermarket cam that has specs similar to that? I will check it for markings the next time I am out there working on it.
  7. There is no oil on the cold side of the turbo. Is there some way to check the hot side? I am still kinda leaning towards it being blow by because I keep fowling plugs
  8. There is no oil on the output of the turbo so I don't think the seals are bad there. I was always under the impression that valve seals would smoke most at startup. And I said the BMW separator because its nearly impossible to find a stock one. Thanks for the help
  9. OK... So I was wrong about my car not running with the MAF unplugged...it WILL. It has a little hesitation but it is the best it has been since I got it running. Does this mean that the MAF is bad? The newest problem now is smoking....A LOT! The PO has removed the oil separator and put a filter on the VC. I have 120 psi compression on all four cylinders on a fresh rebuild. I have new pcv valve from the parts store so it may not be for a turbo. Every so often it clicks rapidly a few times. I am gonna get the oem pcv from Dad and try out the BMW x5 separator
  10. I have fuel on the back side of the pulsation damper diaphragm.Is this normal or what kind of issue will this cause?
