    Rock Auto Discount code

    Could really use a code for August. The other sites that clam to have codes never seem to work out. Thanks

    Starter Motor Replacement

    Sorry for the long delay. I really got this one wrong. It turned out that the threads are in the starter ******, so the bolts go in from the back side of the "bell housing". The solenoid is not in the way of the bolt heads. That leads me to another finding. The new starter had instructions...

    Starter Motor Replacement

    93 SHO ATX Having some trouble figuring out how to get that top bolt (near the Solenoid) out. The solenoid is a bit larger diameter near the bolt head and prevents a socket from coming in squarely and engaging the bolt head. This is when you are attacking from the front of the starter...

    Clutch pedal Safety Switch

    Thanks for the information. And sorry for my bad naming of the switch, I should have had "starter" included in the description. There are 2 electrical switches on the clutch pedal. The switch in your case indicates when the clutch is in the rest position (no one pressing on the clutch). I do...

    Clutch pedal Safety Switch

    I took a look in the "How To" section but came up empty. When the clutch pedal unit is installed in the car already, how do you adjust the switch? When the pedal is on the floor, the plastic stopper on the plastic rod is at the end of the rod and barely touches the switch body. It should be...

    Clutch Pedal Safety Switch

    To zoomIater, thanks for the info and yes the car uses the 3.2 computer and all the atx wiring. I took the front seat out and got a look at the "starter / clutch interlock switch. I was able to disconnect the wiring and I used a jumper to by-pass the switch. The car now rolls over every...

    ok so i got a code for the crank sensor

    The crank sensor is really fussy about having the proper clearance from the crankshaft reluctor wheel, like the thickness of a cover on paper matches. If that 3 piece front cover has been off, (or not), maybe some crap fell down onto the sensor. I think that would give you a code.

    Clutch Pedal Safety Switch

    93 ATX converted to MTX, but using all electrics from ATX. I do not know the original strategy used when the clutch pedal safety switch is introduced into a car that never had it. I am trying to trouble-shoot a problem with this clutch pedal switch; sometimes it works and other times it does...

    ECM Swap Issues

    This gives me hope. It sounds like this conversion to MTX while using ATX wiring was done without opening the ECM and tinkering with the circuitry. All the tell-tale signs were there, when I looked at the ECM , that the case had never been opened. I will get another ECM and hope for the...

    ECM Swap Issues

    Well, my triumphant report on how I got my car to start, turned out bad. The car was shut off at noon and would not start again, same symptoms, would roll over but no fire. Got a pull with another vehicle and popped the clutch, still no start. Very sad at this point! Pulled out the ECU and...

    A/C Prior to 1993

    On every AC system hard piping there is a male quick disconnect coupling. This coupling is where you install the female coupling for the AC gauges to check the pressure in the system. This female coupler has a turn **** on top that opens the schrader valve in the male quick connect on the car...

    ECM Swap Issues

    93 SHO converted from automatic to standard, but using all the automatics wiring system. Car became harder to start, finally would only roll-over. Sprayed a shot of starting fluid and the motor would rock around, but would not start and run. Thought it was fuel issue originally, then proved...

    A/C Prior to 1993

    Are the fill ports for the AC system with R12, different (smaller) from the ones from 93 on which use the newer fluid (132a I think)? I looked at my old home cooling system that has R12 and the filling ports are definitely smaller than the automotive fill ports on my 93 . I am going to buy an...
