    Car shakes at part throttle?

    yeah i got the axle from napa. when i first got done with the job i didnt have the axle nut torqued down enough, took it down the street and noticed it was fuxored so took it straight back to the shop and tightened it up a bunch with the impact wrench great, more shit to fix. i cant afford to...

    Car shakes at part throttle?

    I notice it about low-mid rpm, not so much high. and I seriously doubt it's the plugs/wires, I just replaced them with Ford plugs and Taylor wires. it almost feels like a wheel is unbalanced, but if that were so then it would shake regardless of how much throttle i put into it. maybe...

    Car shakes at part throttle?

    While driving my car I notice that the thing shakes quite noticeably at part throttle, in any gear, and at wot if at low rpms and a higher gear (like if i'm in 3rd goin 20mph and punch it). If i rev the engine in neutral or with the clutch in, there is no shaking whatsoever. if i just push the...

    steering wheel off center after alignment

    what do you mean? I know the shop is supposed to center the wheel, but like i've said three times now, he said if he did that then one of the tie rod ends would only be threaded on about 4 threads. I don't understand why only turning the wheel 1/4 of a turn would cause that though. i'm still...

    Knocking when goosing the throttle?

    or spray carb cleaner or other similarly flammable vapor and see if the idle goes up at all

    Knocking when goosing the throttle?

    seems like you have a vacuum leak, causing a lean condition, causing it to knock

    steering wheel off center after alignment

    funny you should mention the airbag. the light keeps flashing at me and it's REALLY annoying. like i said, the shop guy said that if he adjusted the tie rod ends to make the wheel straight, one side would only be on there by like 4 threads i've also noticed that, when i give the car some gas...

    steering wheel off center after alignment

    k so i replaced the steering rack in my 90 sho and the steering wheel is about 1/4 turn to the left even though the wheels are aligned. the guy at the shop said to take the joint off at the rack, turn the wheel 360* to the right and put the joint back on, but this makes no sense because the...

    separate axle from bearing?

    I'm replacing the passenger side axle tomorrow. I removed the old one and bought a new one today, but the new one only goes from the bearing that bolts to the motor to the hub. there seems to be a c-clip holding the axle to the halfshaft but i can't get it off. am i doing it right or is there...

    p/s belt??

    shotimes lists "inner belt is a gates k040490 (4 rib serpentine, 49" long) outer belt is a gates k060435 (6 rib serpentine, 43.5" long)" this is for the Auto Specialties UDPs. apparently the last 3 numbers indicates the length, and the p/s belt is narrower than the alternator belt, so it...

    PS leak from tie rod boot

    so how do i fix the rack leak? the sway bar endlinks are really not concerning me right now, they arent a fire hazard. those would just require another bolt to replace the missing one and tightening them down. do i have to replace the rack?

    PS leak from tie rod boot

    so my PS fluid is leaking like no other, from the passenger side. it lands on the exhaust, smoking a bunch when I park after driving. after getting under the car, cleaning all the fluid and grime from everything, topping off the fluid, running the car and turning the wheel from full left to full...

    Running lean

    as NotSoSlow said, air going through the IAB is not unmetered, because in order for air to get there it has to go through the MAF and is therefore metered. even if the IAB was stuck open, the extra air that goes through it is STILL being measured by the MAF and, therefore, cannot create a lean...

    engine miss at low rpms under low

    K I think I got it...I for some reason had a vacuum line going directly from one secondary to the other. I was wondering how the hell they'd open if there was no vacuum source. anyways, I took that loose vac line, put the loose end on one secondary and that aforementioned vac line between the...
