ehh, the alternator blew (i think from me shorting something) ... i just said fuggit and sent it off to my fav auto fixer place so they can change the belts and replace the alternator...
fwiw.. the belt tension adjusters were frozen up completely.

Ah that sucks. Sorry to hear that.

On the codes thing, iirc the spots to jump are TEN and GND. I need to verify that as well tho.

 

I just double checked. Yea its TEN and GND

 

I dont know the numbers but when you take teh cover off the diagnosis receptical its the two rows closest to the drivers side of the car. 3rd and 4th row. In that third row its the last one and the 4th row its the 2nd spot.

 

1300cc.com or whatever it is has the code pulling teq and number sheet.

If your coolent is topped off, it could just be an air bubble. Pull the low coolant sensor out and bleed the system. Also check to make sure the low coolant sensor is plugged IN, and that it WORKS (Multimiter).

 

o.k.

12 Throttle sensor
15 Oxygen sensor
17 Feedbacksystem for 02 sensor
18 Throttle sensor - narrow range

 

there's directions for a home made TPS adjustor. it's basically a couple wires and 2 light bulbs. mine was way off when i got it re-adjusted

 

Where???

 

Edit: Post #800, so you know I had to do it in style.... lol

Welcome to the world of multiple engine codes :-p

 

do any of yall notice like a burnt smell when they start up their car? cuz i've been noticing the smell alot lately.. it smells like my brakes but cant tell.. what it is.. any of you have a guess or think of what it could be?

 

LMAO.
Playing Need For Speed Underground 2

What's an engine code?
How can you have more than one?
What's a TPS?
What's an 02 sensor?

LOL

(living in the land of carbuerators..)

 

havent seen any RX series in it yet.
Its got a navigator in it :-p
but im only 12% thru the game so far

 

ok.. i'll see if i can find some codes.. or cars that are featured on there

 

my FD ... no rice jokes please.

The game's really easy. I've used the miata for the entire game so far. i HATE drag racing not because it's drag racing ... it's because some dumb game designers said "hey, how about we make the drag tracks have obstacles so the user has to dodge back and forth while trying to drag race .. that would be cool" and some dumb project manager said "that's a great idea".

the mustang is insanely fast if you tune it for drag. the FD has zero handling. they totally changed it from the first game. TOTALLY disappointed about the FD.

 

i was bored...

Pic1: what my miata looks like.

Pic2: trying a different color combo - wrx isn't bad for the drift races

Pic3: fastest time i got was 7.98 1/4 mile, has a 40+ foot burnout. guess i should readjust the values a little more

Pic4: my entry in a contest b/t my friend and i to make the most hideous 86 as possible.

 

just got my foglights in the mail today, the lenses are decently dirty... what do you dudes recommend to clean em?
I was thinking to break out my 3-step cleaner/sealer/carnauba wax thing.
any thoughts would be appreciated...

yf19: RICER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111eleven :P

 

so um yah... the alternator belt was brokefqd... the alternator is fine
\o/

 

*snickers*

 

there is an RX-8 too, I'm using the 240, and it's working pretty good so far maybe I'll post a pic in a little...

 

Its only two problems really

#1 is the O2 sensor. $7 fix.
#2 is the TPS. $300 fix

 

I miss my 1966 Mustang
