    Miss fire or Pre Detonation what do you guys think.

    I feel your pain man, my car was running beautifully then I put in my fmic and problem city. I got the fuel pump in last night and running, but havent tried opening her up WOT yet. Either way, I already threw in the towel and made an appointment with my local tuner to install some engine...

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    haha those 4 hours were the first 4 hours we've had weather decent enough to do around these parts! Me, I spent mine dropping in my new walboro fuel pump, and after a few cranks, voila! A running car! So I then drive to PepBoys for some fuelinjector cleaner and upon my return, the damn car...

    Miss fire or Pre Detonation what do you guys think.

    hmm...im step colder and gapped at .030 right now...i am installing the walboro fuel pump tonight and see how that does, and I guess re-garp the plugs to .028 when I pull the valve cover off to replace the gasket later in the week... Glad your ride's running right!

    Front mount air duct for SMIC

    haha, wow this is old, I have a big ol' fmic now, but I did continue to dabble with this idea. If you go to the hardware store (a big one) and check out the plumbing and/or heating/venting/duct sections, you'll find some things that could be used as a model to funnel more air to the smic, with...

    Miss fire or Pre Detonation what do you guys think.

    im having the same problem too, no back firing, I just hit that crazy fuel cut/detonation (whatever it is). I am already running step colder plugs though. Yesterday when it did this it gave me a P0103 - MAF seeing too much air code, but then cleared itself. I had the cut again today, but no...

    P0103-MAF seeing too much air CEL

    Screw it, my car has been nothing but a headache since I installed the fmic and I haven't been able to push it or have fun with it in months. I'm scheduled and signed up to get some engine management and a tune while I'm in Florida soaking up some vacation sun.

    P0103-MAF seeing too much air CEL

    merging on the turnpike today I gave it a little gas, nothing crazy as I am waiting to install my walboro and trying to avoid boosting, I hit a nasty fuel cut, buck, and near stall, then got a CEL. I've hit fuel cut before, but it was never this violent and never threw a CEL. Autozone pulled...

    MSP changing body color??

    im gonna cast my vote for this too, the roof of the car looks like it matches the hood, so prolly the sunlight. I've apparently been diagnosed with a "color deficiency" though so dont hold me to it...haha

    Shaved Emblems

    i think its more trouble than its worth unless your gonna have it done the right way... i think pickin up a can of your cars touch up paint and painting the badges the same color would be easier, cheaper, and look better.

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    is the car sitting low at idle too? And I think your the MSP with like 20k on it right? If thats the case, you should be more than fine on the injector and belt front, but it never hurts to inspect. I would def. inspect the MAF and BPV to make sure everything is tight and flowing smoothly...

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Tried to install my walboro fuel pump that I ordered from PG but after getting to the pump and trying to install the walboro i found that the walboro is longer than the stocker and thereful could not successfully close/clip the housing on top to hold the pump in place. So back goes the old fuel...
