what engine componates from my na gxl wil work on my turbo II?
 
i got a undrivable gxl but the engine cranks and runs well, i got a drivable turbo II that i cant get to crank.
both are 1988s
gonna compress test the turbo, but just wondering what items from the engnie can i transfer to the turbo II so that i can hopefully replace a bad part and get this thing working, thanks guys!

and bye the way, how fast should the turbo turn over, becuase it seems 3 times slower then my gxl did, about 5 pulses every 3 seconds. thanks

just a recap:
this after noon i am swapping over the:
spark plugs/wires
AfM
and my custom regrounded wires, anyone else add please?

well that non turbo AFM won't work on a Turbo, as it is calibrated different for a non turbo than a turbo.

The spark plug wires will be a little short if they are OEM (and what is the point if they are OEM and then they should have been replaced 7 years ago anyway)

any ideas u got to make this thing turn over faster mark?

Icemark 05-11-05 02:46 PM

what is your battery voltage?

lastphaseofthis 05-11-05 02:48 PM

14v last time the battery was in my other 7, and it started it right up...

Icemark 05-11-05 02:50 PM

could be a bad starter, a weak battery, bad battery and starter connections, stuck apex seals...

k thanks for giving me something to try, do you reccamend just putting oil into un sticking the apex seals?, or something like brake plaster or pb blaster?

Icemark 05-11-05 03:00 PM

a little ATF if probably fine (a little just in there for a few minutes- not overnight, not more than a teaspoon) to loosen stuck seals.

atf? automatic transmission fluid?

Icemark 05-11-05 03:38 PM

yep.. only a little bit, you just want something thin to build compression and lubricate slightly...

Too much, or letting it soak in, will cause problems like blown and/or leaking seals
