Ugh.. I hate Wisconsin weather sometimes. I came home from work a little early but still not a chance to get out there and try some things.

Ooohhoo im 19.. anyway. this weather will be prime for my adventure in my backyard with the isuzu... haha... hmm.. anyway.. tommorow im gonna have an extra alternator.. if you want it.... it will be good to hold you over until you can get a new(er) one.

its the same amp rating for 3.0 from 89-93, so she would be fine with that... unless youre saying that she might need a new one altogether, but if it works she'd be fine with that one

 

[Mrhappytuzi]

Well that alternator is my original one.. 75k on it. Works Pretty good i guess If you want it you can have it.. Otherwise ill probably have it rebuilt by my old autos teachers cousin so it'll just be a spare.

OK, here's another "symptom" of whatever problem my car has... sometimes when I blip the throttle to revmatch when I downshift I can hear a backfire from under the hood.. Yesterday on the way home from work I downshifted from 5th to 4th to start slowing down to make a left turn and when I blipped the throttle I got a fairly loud bang and the guy next to me looked over like

It did it a couple of times today too...

 

[FREAK_SHO]

I swear you have a vac leak somewhere.

 

[plethaus]

Well I took the car to the mechanic to have the y-pipe replaced (he's close so I didn't have to drive the car far and I took it really easy). With the new O2's the CEL never came on, so that's really cool

Hopefully replacing the cats will fix the bogging issue the car had, and then all that's left is the slightly rough idle. So far so good

 

[FREAK_SHO]

good to hear things are starting to look up.

 

[black92]

Im glad things are looking better.
What kind of y-pipe did the mechanic install?

 

[Bluestreak]

SHO electrics = FUN

I went through that on one car.... boy I had fun parting that heap.

It's just another used stocker I got for cheap from someone on the forum... I was considering getting a used MidwestSHO highflow y-pipe from someone here for $225 shipped but I just couldn't justify the money for a car that is primarily winter transportation.
