Jeez man! I sold the car to someone who said they were going to take care of it and it sounds like you are thrashing the shit out of it! Oh well it is your dollar...3600 of them to be exact. :rolleyes:

Do me a favor...if you terminally break the car...DONT'T CALL ME BITCHING ABOUT IT! :rolleyes: ;)

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Nah - I haven't been beating the car. Dont worry though - I think you still sold me a nice car. I rewired the fuel pump, put in a Walbro 190, leds under the car, neons inside and finished the timing belt and water pump.
Planning to put in 650 cc, 2g maf, socket the ecu and chip it for the 650 cc, safc 2, electronic boost controller, HG + ARP head studs, fix the exhaust leak, more gauging. The finally dyno it with Shane. ;)

Hey the price was 3600 plus the plane ticket remember? LOL! :rolleyes: I wish there had been more time for a few beers before you left.

I know you had driveline issues - what did you have to fix? Let me know so I won't look in that direction - so I'll look into stuff you didn't need to fix and it could be showing up just coz of age. I may look into a Shep tranny next year.

Ahhh, it's all becoming clear now. If youz gotz da neonz undah the car, youz don't need dat center diff messin up ya ride. :rolleyes:

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Let's see driveline issues:

Tranny case split...replaced the tranny.
Transfer case leaking...replaced T-case with tranny from same car.
UV joints in prop shaft making noise...replaced all three.

That's about it for the driveline issues I knew of.

So did wd40 fixed your problem?

:rolleyes:

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Neons!!?

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Oh jeez...

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

It stopped ticking dammit. Now it's still slipping, but the clicking sound went away.

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

How do I know which one it is? I looked and there's didn't seem to be anything looking like a valve. Would anyone happen to have a pic?

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Hey Kenny,
Do you have any idea how many miles that tranny and t-case had? Or if it had ever been rebuilt?

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

You can't miss it. its right near the down pipe & transfer-case.

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

It must have fell off. So that must not be your problem.

I would start looking at the center diff as we said before.:cool:

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Holy shit I damn near fell out of my chair after reading that!

....and that!

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

I just checked mine yesterday when I was working on my Laser's clutch issues. You'll find it RK.

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

But you know, now that I think about it?!?!?! You really should find another flamidation valve and swap it out before you go any further. Or you'll just be wasting our time and yours. :cool:

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

I think there is a Vfaq or Tuners tech article explaining the swap.

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Yeah, I read that VFAQ when we swapped that 6 bolt in my friends 2G. We broke off the valve when we were swapping the engine. Good thing it was an easy fix!

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

With LED's and neons, why even bother with driving the car? Just pose in a parking lot with the door propped open and your leg hanging out! Any plans for a larger turbo to go along with those 650cc fuel injectors?

Re: Wheel spin developed recently in all gears except 5th
 

Neons can be what causes the flamidation valve go to bad in the first place. The frequency of the fluorescent light can cause a partial interference with the natural frequency of the flux capacitor on the flamidation valve leading to valve failure. I wish I could find the damn Vfaq on this, it spells out this issue quite well and includes pictures.
