    car wont run right... need help FAST!!!

    yes the cps is a common problem. it isnt the wire itself, its the connectors inside the cps clip. that wouldnt set a tps code tho. well, not that ive ever seen. sounds like you need to either replace the cps connector, or direct hardwire it.

    Attempted my first fuel injectors removal

    yeah those are copper crush washers. always replace those, and get the correct metric sized ones or it will leak. best tool for the fpr and fpd is a crows foot. pretty sure its a 22mm

    low throttle tuning..

    yes any changes you make in closed loop the ecu will counteract. hook up the Vf wire so you can see what the ecu is doing. that can be helpful in part throttle tuning. i usually make small corrections to get it as close to 2.5v as possible so the ecu changes as little as possible. seems to...

    car wont run right... need help FAST!!!

    its just a restriction molded into the end of the metal tube. it is there so if your fuel regulator fails it will create enough backpressure to be able to drive the car home. problem is, when upgrading the fuel pump it often creates such a restriction that fuel pressure is really high, causing...

    car wont run right... need help FAST!!!

    btw, that wont have anything to do w/ the code. pull the efi fuse under the hood for a min and put it back in to clear the codes. it may be an old code. if it reappears you know its a problem.

    Need some help (Cage)

    never seen a 6pt w/ forward bars. sure it isnt an 8pt? 6pt is main hoop (2points) rear bars (2 points) and diagonal bars from hoop support to trans tunnel (2 points) or does this cage not have the diag bars and uses front bars instead?

    Need some help (Cage)

    if its a 6pt it doesnt have forward bars. the rear section of the lhd and rhd are the same. i dont see what the problem would be. i thought i remembered a guy in canada having one in his car. i'll see if i can find pics. dont know the guy, so not sure if he had to mod anything or not...

    MAF-what is needed to eliminate it.
