Re: Computer Command Ride

Sorry for my ignorance, my intuition had me thinking that "touring ride" would totally inflate the rear shocks, and would give you a cushy ride. Performance would let all the air out, thus having the rear end hugging the ground. I didn't consider different valve rates within the shocks. That would ...

Computer Command Ride

1994 SSEi. For my birthday, I recieved 2 new rear airshocks. These shocks are beautiful to look at just by themselves, anyways. I went to install them these past couple days. What a pain in the ass that was! I noticed that the old ones had a 3pin connector plugged into the top of these shocks. The ...

Re: Engine woes

The crank shaft doesn't look all that bad. The first inch of the shaft isn't as shiny, but the diameters looks the same. The only thing that's not good on the crank is the key. I wasn't aware this had a keyhole. I thought the key was milled and part of the crank. I cleaned everything up this morning ...

Re: Engine woes

This evening I reinstalled the "old" computer (PCM,ECM). Attempted to start the car, and nothing. Removed all spark plugs, dried and reinstalled. Once again nothing. I was eager enough to pull the harmonic balancer and re install the old crank sensor. Once I pulled the harmonic balancer, I found the ...

Re: Engine woes

Thanks for the advice about not deleting the Cataylic converter. The thought crossed my mind last night and almost had a saw-zaw party last night instead of unbolting the flange area. I know that fuel is present, at least at the fuel rail, and can smell strong fuel in the exhaust. Glad I didn't ...

Re: Engine woes

I'm liking that angle! Makes alot of sense, I lost some coolant down the cylinders when I replaced that lower gasket. Car had alot of white smoke, burning off. That moisture could indeed plug the cat? Anyways,, Jacked the car, shook the piss out of this catalyic converter. Didn't hear a sound, other ...

Re: Engine woes

Sorry, I should of specified that, I replaced the PCM (main computer) I can't even get the car to run anymore to check spark from the coilpacks/ICM (which by the way, all coils and ICM were replaced 2 months ago).
When I had the supercharger out of the car, I decarbonized the inside with degreaser ...
