Real Fiero Tech

the fusable links are (most of them) under the C500 connector, near the battery. you'll see the positive junction.

best way to reduce bumpsteer is to reduce wheel travel. stronger springs, new struts & rear sway bar. and - also - many other rear independant suspension problems are often blamed on bumpsteer - like mainly bad rear a-arm bushings, and also bad rear balljoints, tie-rod ends & sloppy axle bea...

The idling is just above 1 grand. and it doesn't fluxuate. Not extremely fast idling, but I feel it's too fast. yes - if thats the hot idle - yes - it is to fast. the usual cause is a vacuum leak. the weak power is a multiple part problem: #1 - the crappy SI alternator - replace with CS - if it isn...

all the old schoolers say to stick a quart of ATF in the oil and idle it for 10 minutes then drain all your oil out and refill with new - supposed to clean all the buildup out. yes, I've used kerosene like that for a long time - untill I wrecked a oil pressure sender. but - nowadays - just switch t...

:thumbleft:

yes, instead of rubbing alchohol, 2 different kinds of other alchohol

I agree 100% that the TEC is better stuff - but it isnt a large leap
Seafoam is good stuff.

seafoam is a ripoff for what it is. You can get the same results by running water through a vacuum line. For "better than water" cleaning, I would suggest GM's TEC (top engine cleaner). Oh, and DON'T put seafoam in your engine oil. well, if you look at the Seafoam vs GM TEC - you'll see t...

if you have a high milage engine thats always had conventional oil - detergents and switching to synthetic is almost a guaranteed way to make it start leaking. I have not had this happen. but, only had 2 cars to go by. and, one of them burnt oil - so I only went to synth blend, not full synth. but,...

yup - it is. that Escort with 130k REALLY liked the Seafoam
I still think Techron is a better injector cleaner. But, Seafoam does a GREAT job with overall cleaning & loosening carbon.

Id like to drag... butttt im too scared something will bite the dust and fuck me over for waterford... my car is more of a autox/road course car than a drag car anyway LOL - YUP my last time at Milan I ended up needing a tow home..... split my tranny yuck yes - I understand not wanting to take the ...

Yeah, the dyno day is doubtful. Both on interest and dealing with the shop. they didn't seem to helpful towrds me and my questions. Oh well. I do plan to attend the test and tune at Milan that wednesday. yeah - its gonna suck for me being the slowest one there - but - we will see. me & my 3.1 w...

has not affected either of the cars I used it on. 02 Malibu & 98 Escort.
I would say - no - dont worry about it at all. Both responded well to it - especially the Escort.

any others committed?

I am planning to dyno sooner (april) - but - I'll hold off if this will happen.

but, judging by response - seems most are worried about other peoples dyno sheets than their own....

just started using it last year. love the stuff. carefull running it thru a vacuum line - it'll suck the can dry quickly. make sure you can restrict it's flow. and, be ready to goose the throttle. it'll smoke for awhile after the can is empty too. I've never used it in the oil, since I use synthetic...

way over thinking. not sure what a GSXR 600 is, but I am guesing a motorcycle? if so - good luck comparing 9000RPM throttle sizes to 5000RPM throttle sizes. yes, the HP is a GREAT basis. but - hit the easy button: roughly the same size, slightly larger than your intake valve. you CANNOT move more ai...

yes, I saw it was having BIG problems yesterday - but - wow - this is FAST

GJ

!WOW! RFT is FAST today

new service?

You can not reprogram the start feature to operate a different function. All it does is ignition on, start/accessory off, run. It will do nothing if it does not see a rpm signal either... unless you have a REALLY REALLY REALLY fast power window motor, it won't work. haha :blah5: Get a keyless entry...

if all that you want is a decent keyless entry with trunk, look up the Crime Stopper CS-865-RKE-II It is a decent system that is built just for the purpose of keyless entry, trunk, and has a security feature also. Otherwise, Viper makes an OK keyless entry unit. yes, but after I thought of the wind...

I have a manual trans - and would never think of putting something like this on. but, I do want keyless entry & trunk popper. its getting tough to find one that doesnt include remote start. so, I was looking at options. I noticed one of the "remote start" options is to just crank for X...
