Re: Back to 4 Cylinders

So the car stopped running again yesterday. Put the new TPS on, it started up, then it didn't read the TPS. I turned it off, got the TPS working in the K Pro. Then it stopped starting up.

AFTER 5 hours of checking shit out, found out it was the 4 bar MAP sensor that wasn't working. I put the stock map sensor back on it, then it STARTED RIGHT UP!

Got it running, put coolant in it, to find the thermostat housing leaking. After 2 hrs of calling around for a gasket, got it fixed. FIXED IT. NOW IT DRIVES.

and...today. Woke up to get the Optima battery recharged, it doesn't hold a charge and was mounted sideways in the fender so I couldn't get a NON dry cell battery in there, so I ended up relocating a regular battery to the passenger seat (temporarily) just so I could go give it a car wash and drive it.



AND FINALLY It's first tank of gas/e85



car wash.



and finally all washed up. Gotta take that sticker off the side, but was too tired after rubbing off the 6 yrs of rubber off the door (burnouts from slicks from the previous setup).
