Dude, if you wanna head this way to hellbents holler at me at 865 335-6242, were about 10-15 mins from the gap anyhow...stop by and check out the widebody 1st gen

 

If it wasn't so late I'd come. I've got to work tonight and we're having a meet tomorrow anyway. Hope to see everyone there.

I'm also having a 1st gen issue... anyone else have problems with the fuel door not opening when the tank is empty and the car is at a gas station? I swear the Cheeto is on a hunger strike again. It's done this before twice, only when the tank is empty and I'm at the gas station. As soon as I get home, it'll pop open first try. Little bastard! Now I have to coast my way to another gas station with the fuel door already open.

 

Lol, time to hit it with WD40 or some graphite Liz, get that door popper popping back to use >.>

 

Is it an electric or cable popper? It doesn't even click or anything, at least not until I'm at least 1 mile from a source of gasoline. If it's electric, I've got a bad connection somewhere. If it's a cable then there's probably too much slack.

 

if your release button is on the floor its a cable type, if its in the dash is electric

 

That makes sense. Now I see why they switched to a cable on the 2nd gens.

 

I dunno, i think the electrick popper on a 2nd gen would be nicer

 

Whatever floats your boat I guess. Say... you never answered me about the S4 MAF adapter piece... how much you want for one? Got a cone filter to go with it?

 

I guess I'll put up a last minute notice...

MEET TODAY! SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13TH @ 6PM
CIRCUIT CITY PARKING LOT IN CEDAR BLUFF/WEST KNOXVILLE
Come help us finish off the last of the ozone layer.
Bring cookies. Or not, whatever.

 

ive got the adapter, just no filter >.>

 

Okay, well bring the adapter. I'll eBay me a filter. I need to get some more supplies before I can build the intake pipe.

 

yeah it is joey and i already pulled my motor and replaced the oil pump.no luck any wayz we were at the dragon this morning around 4am campn

 

still need help trouble shooting.If anything let me know some more opinions

 

Did you check that oil pressure regulator?

 

Any of you guys East Tenn guys going to the SpeedForSale event at Steele, AL?

 

hm.. when is it again?

 

This Sat. from 9:30am-3:30pm.

 

some photos of my t2. almost got the fuel pump out, but 2 stubbron screws (the camera sucks and apparently has something on the lens)

 

Nice Steiny, hopefully I'll get to see it running before you leave town. The red parts look like my TII when I bought it. Oh, and that's just dust particles that your camera picked up. Not much you can do about that. Oh, and I know all about those stubborn screws. Mine were all rusted in place and will have to be drilled out. Drilling through a gas tank is not on my list of enjoyable activities.

Derrick, that TPS made the TII slightly more user-friendly. I'm going to try adjusting the higher ranges, I think they might be out of whack since the symptoms cover both sensors. I still think my throttle body has a bit too much tension for some reason.

 

could be liz, though T2 TB's seem to be more resistant to input unlike a NA...

not bad steiny, almost makes me miss my t2.

Oh yeah...whars dem dar pix liz?

 

got those screws out! let some liquid wrentch (like wd40) sit on the screws for about 3-4 hrs to let it penetrate good. then took a hammer and screw driver, set to a low angle on the side of the screw, and with a few good whacks got some turn on them. got some replacements from lowes (m4-0.70x12 machine screws. they are like 1/8" longer but they still dont bottom out) if anyone needs some. home depot dosent carry screws that small

 

damn....sanding with that orbital is killing my fingers >.< sooo much bondo so few pads

 

Liquid Wrench has never really helped me much. My bolts are always beyond stuck. I have a hard time finding good metric screws at the hardware stores, I ended up having to go to Napa for some stuff.

I'll try to get those pics up soon Derrick, most of them came out pretty dark though.

 

I wanna see that t2 run too.. and why you leaving town!?!?!

LIZ!! umm.. The wide body would like you to fix the BODY!
:-D
