bad apex seals?
what are some signs of bad apex seals??
|
no compression on two faces of the rotor.
|
low vacuum that oscillates regularly, shaking motor, exhaust note sounds like a lawnmower. Usually happens after a redline 3rd gear pull with too much boost in my experience ;)
|
well what could be the reason my car smokes really bad when i start it and it smells like anti freeze. im pissing away anti freeze from the over flow, it seems like im buring it.
|
Thats a bad coolant seal. That also qualifys you for a rebuild.

yea it runs fine when it hot as long as theres anti freeze in it. how much does it usually run to fix that?

is that when you're engaging first gear? if so, it's probably bad mounts (engine, tranny or both). if you had a bad apex seal, the car would idle different (at the least) and you would have noticed a marked decrease in power.

double post.

Throttle position sensor search the forum for a write up on how to adjust it.
|
It's located on the rear section of the throttle body near the firewall. If you have a power fc and commander you can check the voltage to see if it's out of spec and if so, adjust it until it's within spec.
|
thanks for the help!!!
|
how do you check with the power fc to see if the voltage is out of spec?
