Re: Wanted: ZZP power log
Yeah, just trying to see if I can save $40 or so getting a used one before I buy one from ZZP.
Funny thing is, it is $139 on ZZP site and $159 from ZZP on eBay.

Re: 3800sc oiling problem
I will be pulling the motor back out and replacing the rear Main seal cover Plate gasket. At this point I hope it IS installed backwards so that I know what went wrong that is starving the right side lifters of oil. Does anyone have experince/knowledge of the rear main cover Plate gasket being insta...

Re: 3800sc oiling problem
I did the 2quart 40weigjht oil, 2 quart ATF (pennzoil brand) and 1 quart acetone motor flush today and drove the car about 7 miles with it in the engine. Sad to say the tapping noise did not go away . I then did an oil change and the atf /oil/acetone mix came out red and clear. I put in 10w40, mobil...

Re: 3800sc oiling problem
I am being told that if input the rear main seal cover plate gasket on backwards , it could cause unilateral oiling and starve oil to one side of the lifter valley. It still doesn't explain how the noise silenced with rislone and returned in the next drive with the rislone. Before I yank the motor o...

3800sc oiling problem
I removed both valve covers and ran the engine to find that my loud tapping valve train noise is due to this: Trunk side rocker bank getting oil nicely, even squirting when revved a bit, lifters feel hard like they are full of oil.(when pushing down on the pushrods) Firewall side rocker bank complet...

Pulley puller request / question

Re: 3800sc rattling/ticking sound
Very strange. I took the car for a ride and the rattling stopped. I guess the rislone worked. But then I took it for another ride after washing it and the rattle came back just like before. The rislone is still in it so maybe I should just keepmdriving t aNd see if it goes away again and then see if...

Re: 3800sc rattling/ticking sound
I removed the belts today and the rattling/tapping is still there. :no: Its either something internal or an exhaust leak (which im hoping for). Any way to check for an exhaust leak when the manifold isnt really visible? Maybe spray marine fogging oil in the intake amd look for smoke down by the fire...
