S4. I have a spare BAC lying around and that's about it. Care to hook up a fellow Tennessean?

 

Well took the alternator off after getting a few second opinions. Went to Advanced Auto and let em test it 3/4 of the test runs yielded a bad/faulty diode, the first test revealed it was good... but im not argueing with a 3outta4 test failure. So my alternator is the cause of my non start issue.

 

I saw a gold gsl se on cedar bluff today also a white 1st gen on rims setting at the old food city off of cedar bluff .
Is everyone in the for the meet this saturday ?

 

Im only in if i can get my **** running again >.>

 

Damn it no alternator yet ? I think I got a solution for you EHH <center>

while I am in South carolina I was driving down the street and a guy pulled up next to me and said "nice clean 7, I have always loved those cars" I was like thanks.... he drove off in his viper... coolest thing thats ever happened to me.

 

nice Josh, though you have to ask...if hes always loved 7's, why's he driving a viper?

 

too much Pain In the *** work! But I am just guessing...:-P

 

******* A!!! Damn alright, so my 7 has been down since sunday, BUT ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!


thank ******* 7god cause, having my DD down sucked *******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Morning you damn Tennessee *****!

 

I don't think an alternator can cause a non-start issue other than letting your battery drain. Have you tested your battery for voltage with a DMM?

 

I saw an (almost) white FB sitting behind that Food City a few days ago. It was mine though...

Where are we meeting this Saturday?

 

This saturdays meet will be held at the circuit city parkinglot . I'm thinking we should cruise somewhere any ideas ? Dragon ? OR barBQ @ my house OR the track since I missed the last one .

Well its dark out and i havent gotten any closer to my goal of getting the T2 running. Though I did have a spare Alternator, im still checking for why shes not starting. Ive drained teh battery nearly dead so on teh charger it goes tomorrow, as well as pics that i have questions to...as I have a lil connector near the ECU that i have no clue what it does or why two wires go into it and deadends into what seems to be a sealed component of some sort...

 

I get off work at 2 this saturday.. so.. If I'm not making my fibreglass box then I'll try to show up I'll probably have to bring Derrick.

 

Lol aint no probably Eric, if im still outta comission ill need a lift, ill spot ya gas though if i get to drive >.>

 

I should be there Saturday, not sure which car I'll bring. At the moment, they both RUN! Incredible, isn't it?

For those of you who have been to the Dragon and think it's a crazy drive, check this one out.


ROARING FORK MOTOR NATURE TRAIL - SPEED LIMIT 10MPH

Thanks to my girl Alyssa (NeatoCheetoFB) for holding the camera as steady as physically possible

 

Now my cars broke...

I got in today and my voltmeter went up to ~15.5v depending on engine speed. Anything over 15v will blow the ECU or other things really quick. This is after my gauge sat at ~12.4v for about 4 years. UGH!

 

What About U Hellbent ? R U In 4 Saturday ?

 

Dude, you are too generous with money.. but if you want to drive that's cool. I think I finally scored a header.. the guy sent me the wrong picture but yeah.. I had to out bid someones 'dibs' to get it.. Tonight I'm supposed to be talking to a guy about building me a fibreglass box or give me tips on it.

 

Damn Jimi that road looks like hell >.>

Eric, if i drive ill replace teh fuel i know id consume faster than you would lol, but nice job on scoring a header and possible box.

Talked with hellbent this afternoon, hes in depending on teh time.

Rob... have you checked the alt out? if it suddenly spikes like that sounds like something in the voltage regulater, jerk it off, have a buddy run your *** to advanced or oreallys and have it tested on the bench unit, autozone will only tell ya if its good or bad not whats wrong.

 

I AM IN! just need to know a time.. so i know when to go home and pass out from the bar friday.

 

OH, and my 85 is back in the front yard.

SOON TO BE ALIVE!!!
unless anyone want to buy it, so i can get the N/A faster!! *hint hint*

 

How about 6 PM on Saturday guys? That would give us at least a couple hours of daylight.

For those who haven't been to a meet yet, don't be shy. Show up in whatever you can, take the bus if you have to. Just because your 7 can't make it/doesn't exist yet doesn't mean you're not welcome.

 

Oh yeah.... I welcome anyone who wants to drive out to my place to help me work on the pos car.... food and maybe fuel to the soul(s) who do

 

yEAH 6 PM SOUNDS COOL .I'LL PROBLY LET MY BROTHER DRIVE MY FIRST GEN OUT TO THE MEET TO GET MORE CARS OUT . A WHAT HAPPEN TO THOSE OTHERGUYS THAT WENT TO THE VERY FIRST MEET WE SHOULD GIVE THEM A SHOUT TO .
