http://www.ma70.com/bishop92t/techtips/7mlayout2.jpg Oil pressure sending unit is below the exhaust manifold towards the front of the engine. It's a bell shaped unit, usually has a rubber cover over it and has a single wire going to it.

The only time you should be hitting FCO that early is with an upgraded turbo, improperly set TPS, broken AFM, or boost leak.

Fuel filter needs replacing, intake manifold/throttle body gaskets need replacing, EGR disable (for testing), check CPS timing. Few things off the top of my head.

Remove the FCD, check engine error codes, report back.

Are you venting to atmosphere or recirculating? Try to find a picture on the web that looks like your BOV and link that.

Put the car in 5th gear, pull the e-brake up as far as you can, preferably have someone hold their foot on the brake as well but if you're careful you can skip that. Torque away, the car will lurch forward a bit but you should be able to torque it down fine. Loosening the crank bolt will not...

Real short shifter. About half the throw as the stock unit, same height.

FTW

With the car cold, start it up and immediately move your hand around the exhaust manifold and turbo area anywhere there is a gasket. You'll feel a puff of air somewhere if you've got a leak. Just do it quickly as things get very hot very quickly.

Slip a pair of vice grips very carefully onto the top of the strut shaft, the very top past the end of the smooth shiny part of the rod, in between the spring. Be very careful not to touch the smooth and shiny part of the strut. Then tighten the top bolt as normal. You'll have to do this with...

I wouldn't worry until it dips into the low 12's with all the electronics on.

That's a good one as well. I used it before to remove some wheel locks.

WD40 or using a cutting tool (dremel) to cut a large notch in the screw to use a large flathead screwdrive on. Depends on how determined you are. Screw extractor might work as well, depends on the particular problem.

Possibly overloading the stock FPR or having J-tube problems. Without a fuel pressure guage it'll be hard to diagnose accurately.

Those seat belt guides were very flimsy in 89. After that year they beefed them up considerably. Interior looks good.

Looking good Noah...

Stock FPR?

Could also be an exhaust leak on the manifold.

Bazooka Joe, his gum is tougher then steel. But seriously I've always had good luck with stock bearings. Properly sized and definitely plastigauge all of them before final assembly.

Fresh engines can make some funky liquids. In between the new gaskets and assembly lube it's quite a mess. Flush the system if the gunk returns then start looking for a problem.
