Yeah, I tried that starter method and completely rounded the bolt. I ended up drilling that sucker out. If the impact won't get it, start drilling, it's not that long of a bolt and it goes fast. I had carbide bits though.
If I remember corectly the fronts are replaced with kenwoods, the rear are pioneer, in the trunk are two 12inch bazooka's in a bandpass box, on top is a 600watt kenwood for the subs, a 200 watt for the interior speakers, and a 1 farad capacitor.
Mine sounds ridiculous (as in good), I have my box tucked tightly under the rear speakers. I had to remove the stock sub to fit it. If you ask me it's worth it. The stock speakers have aweful mid and highs. In the front mainly.
Get a 90 degree drill and go to town, this way you won't have to drop the engine. Same thing happened to me. I started a hole and used a small easy out.
Not to step on any toes here, when I did this I tried that bump the starter method to get the bolt out on the crank pulley. Only to strip the hell out of that bolt, I then had to drill it out, locate one and put it all back together. If there is even a small chance of this happening to you...
Mine has been like this even when it was 100 degrees outside. Should it be dropping codes if it isn't locking? I can never get the KOER test to work, would the codes be in there?
It should probably read higher than 40psi. If the car is sitting and it's hot it will read much higher than that. When the compressor is running and the system is in use it's then that it should be around 40, actually I'm not sure what the regular operating psi is. It's in the green on my...
I didn't have trouble finding the seal, a friend that worked at a repair shop got it for me, he did have to order it though. You'll find one. And yes clean it real good and make sure thats the problem before you tear into it. It would be a shame to put forth all that work for nothing.
The oil filter housing is a small oil cooler. It's made of Aluminum, that will expend and contract. But, really, it's probably your seal there. I had to replace my seal as it started leaking. You only notice it leak when it's cold because it's probably burning off when it is running. The...
I agree with "NiNeTy Fo SHO" 60k really doesn't gain much power back, unless the valves are way off. Oil seals and timing belts won't do much. If the timing belt is jumping teeth on the pullys thats another story, but if that happened it probably wouldn't run, your cams would be out of synch...
I knew there would be others out there. Lets get some pictures of the work posted, or work in progress. What do you think the j-yard would charge for something like this, I'm gonna have to call and ask.
10-12 wow I wasn't expecting that much I'm impressed. I think I'm gonna go take a much closer look at it now. I looked at the cougar and the sc is mounted at the bottom with a long intake tube. So it was hard to determine what the sc actually looked like.
Make my own intake? If things...
Anyone ever try taking a supercharger out of a Thunderbird or Couger and putting it in a SHO. Can you use the MAF out of those cars also. Theres one of each at a junkyard around here. Seems like I could get alot of parts for a little cost. Anyone know the boost those SC put out?
