Rico's build thread.

Thx will look at that now I bet two of them are because I switched the green and white plug on the sensors trying diff things out

more then a few are because you swapped plugs. you needed to swap the solenoid not just the 2 plugs.

Holy crap that's a lot of DTCs!

Your poor gas mileage is probably caused by a combination of those, not just an old upstream O2 sensor =/

 

[RicoP5]

i guess i need to do a list of things to buy/clean. placed the codes where they seem to belong on the parts that might be causing the problem.

buy cam shaft sensor (P0171 OBD)(P0340 OBD-II )

( P0300) put it under here because all my plugs.wires and coils are new. only thing under that code will be this sensor

clean maf sensor or buy a new one (P0102 OBD-II ) (P0171 OBD)(P0103)(P0102 )

buy o2(already done waiting for it ) (P0171 OBD)

buy ait sensor(P0113 )

amen

meaning new ones or replacements from someone to see if thats the prob right? know the name of them or part number to order them?

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Yeah, that coil swap minus the solenoid is causing random misfires and that isn't a great help with your gas mileage

 

[RicoP5]

huh? what you mean the coils swap? lol that should have nothing to do with it i hope..

those solenoids i do need to replace hopefully i find some replacement ones soon

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Sorry, too early for me. Forget I spoke lol

 

[RicoP5]

when i meantioned plugs i was reffering to the solenoids plug i switched them from one solenoid to another just to see if anything happened lol

 

[JDM_Pro5]

I was thinking about the 1.8 coil conversions. Did you buy new or used?

 

[RicoP5]

oh no lol and yes new wires and all

 

[RicoP5]

Checked all sensors took out o2. Finally was able to take off egr valve and change it with a different one. Checked for vacuum leaks and Nothing. Cleaned maf and took our cam sensor and it looks normal

 

[RicoP5]

So from 10 codes I'm down to 2

P169 and p1250

I know one has to do with the pressure regulator it said . Should I take it off and try to clean it? Replace it? The other code I'm clueless

 

[RicoP5]

Ordered red sick speed horns

added spacers to the back

With No spacer

With Spacer
What y'all think ?

 

[CheeseHelmet]

^Looks good Rico

 

[RicoP5]

Thanks probably add some to the front too

 

[azuelke]

Thanks probably add some to the front too

Let me know if you need any

 

[JDM_Pro5]

How large are the spacers on the rear?

 

[RicoP5]

ill try to measure them today. they were my bros he had them sitting there doing nothing and I was bored so tried them on

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Just checking since I have the same wheels. I'm curious what is needed up front to be flush. 8mm maybe
