    toasted the wideband?

    I installed a wideband in my car a little over a year ago, bought it off of ebay, worked good for about 3 months then flashed on and off a few times and went black never to work again. i have power through the wireing harness but nothing coming out of the gauge. im assuming it shorted out anyone...

    Po171 & p0131

    I dont understand what your trying to say. basically you have to figure out whats causeing your check engine light. once that is fixed your car should run fine without tuning it. try unplugging your negative battery terminal for at least 30 min to let all the trouble codes clear. hook it back up...

    Po171 & p0131

    it is you a/f ratios that are making it run like s***, but, you have to figure out whats causeing the bad a/f ratio. From the sounds of things I would put my money on a vacuum leak considering you have already changed out both sensors. These cars are notorious for having crappy vacuum hoses and...

    horrible idle and stall out at idle

    I have both, at initial start-up the car usually revs up to 1500 rpms like normal and hold -99 vac on the greddy and -20to -22 on the boost gauge. Once the RPM's start to drop to normal idle the vac goes to around -80 to -90 on the greddy and begins to die. The car also tries to keep me out of...

    front end clunk

    I get a loud clunk noise from the front passenger side. Had a broken end link, replaced them with adjustable end links. but the noise is still there. notice it most at low speeds in parking lots. Could this be similar to the infamous rear clunk?
