you'll have to ask for my dad
his name's Mike
he'll be home around 5
he knows how much

 

[SinisterSHO]

Shouldn't your signature read 'dont mess with a buick that can fit an intercooler under the bumper?

 

[smokin joe]

Kind of sort of, because it doesn’t exactly fit under the bumper

 

[Blwn SHO]

And the Sho dies agian. Not getting any spark. White91+ says the crank sencer is doing it... Is it Possible?

 

[smokin joe]

Yeah it could be the crank position SENSOR, did Dave look at it after it died or did you just call him or whatever

 

[Blwn SHO]

He was with me. He said it hit the window that it looks in ... Oh and by the way i got the headlights

 

[dantheman68]

sounds like crank sensor, especially like this...

 

[EthoSHO]

have fun replacing the CPS lol especially after all that work.

 

[Blwn SHO]

It looked like it touched the crank window.. Is that possible?

 

[dantheman68]

?...

it has to be gapped (the sensor must be a certain distance from the shaft and the magnetic pickup) to a certain spec, but that spec escapes me right now

its not that hard of a procedure... the crank pulley might be the most difficult part, which never seemed that difficult to me...

 

[smokin joe]

isnt it gapped to like 50-60 thousandths? or something like that I did mine when i blew the timing belt and did the side 60k just before school, not that bad to do but it would have been much easier when the motor was out this shows you everything to do with pictures http://www.shophoenixproject.com/lower60k/lower60k.htm That has extra steps because thats for the full front 60k but just do everything for the CPS Dave knows what to do

 

[Blwn SHO]

Heres whats up..
Car starts fine then anywheres between 3-15 sec it starts to back fire and make tons of noise. it also smells like ********* gas. Would the 02's do that?

 

[Mrhappytuzi]

Could possibly smell like gas because its missfiring. Check for bad plug wires, or bad coil

 

[Blwn SHO]

brand new plugs... maybe a sticky injector?

 

[Mrhappytuzi]

check fuel pressure lately?

 

[Blwn SHO]

not with a guage. Just by pressing the spout on top and it hits the hood

 

[dantheman68]

check the plug wire routing...
