    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    Dylan, yes they do make spark testers should be able to rent one or purchase one from auto store. Usually around $15 or so. Or you can pull them by hand and of course and test that way. You'll probably get zapped, i know i did, ha. Google is your friend on how to's. Is the car an atx or mtx? On...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    some advance autos do test them. I took mine to autozone to have them tested, they dont really have a way to properly test them though. I took the coil thats currently on my car and they told me it was dead...which its not. Test to make sure youre getting spark at the coil and on the rear bank...

    1994 ATX WONT SHIFT TO 2nd!! help

    Thats the only way its working without the high rev and huge kick in after rpms drop to about 1 or 2k. I have to manually use 2nd gear at a stop to get going then shift to drive. Trans fluid is full. I cant find a transmission for this car anywhere. All the scrap yards around here pretty much...

    1994 ATX WONT SHIFT TO 2nd!! help

    Unfortunately mine just started doing this just tonight. Its a shame because I just got this car running again. This seems to be a common problem for these cars. Didnt seem to do this when i parked it but it sat for a year... Mine drives fine until its warm then at a stop it revs high then kicks...

    Hey guess you guys arent that far away. Might have to take you up on that when i get this sho looking better. Hopefully this winter I'll be fixing some of the cosmetics of this car. Some interior pieces and front bumper. Today I noticed my moonroof is leaking so I've got to figure that out...

    Plug Wires?

    Im sure there have been many discussions about plug wires but I could not find anything about PRESTOLITE Part # 126024 plug wires. I see them on rock auto for $78.79 and I wasnt sure whether they would be any good or not. Im trying to figure out a misfire issue as disscussed in my other post and...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    Back at it... Well its been awhile since Ive messed around with this SHO. Ran out of money and the winter hit, i have to work outside so that kinda slows things down... Installed a brand new DPFE and it still has the same problem. There is no way I could have installed the cats backwards...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    hey tompumped, I'm located in the small town of Belmont, NY. I visually checked the wires as best i could and did not see any breaks but i havent taken the harness out all the way. I had no idea about the egr causing red cats either, as I too thought it would be unburned fuel igniting in the...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    Both spout connectors are plugged in. I double checked them with the guide on here just to make sure they were the right plugs. As for the EGR valve gasket, well that has a rip in it. I'll make a trip to the parts store tomorrow and to get one of those. Thermostat is also bad... All of the...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    Thank you for the link ilikepoultry, it gave me the same info i had but allowed me to double check the process. The reason I couldn't run KOER was due to my O/D wires being severed completely. I hooked up a toggle switch and it allowed me to do the test because I could then turn on/off O/D. The...

    PLEASE....SHO Needs HELP NOW!!!

    I cant drive it to autozone because i currently dont have it on the road. I figured I would get it all fixed up before I get it on the road, that way i don't damage anything on the car. I want this car running strong and be a proud SHO owner. The scan tool would make things so much easier but I...
