I'll be in the area for wedding in Alexandria that day. I might possibly stop by for a bit.

Marty! I got your missed call, tried calling you back and it went straight to voicemail!!! Nice looking cars though!

I'd put money on it that the TCC hasn't locked up. In 3rd gear RPMs would be more like 2500 at 55mph. Like someone else said, the TCC won't engage until 70 degrees trans temp. I know that my car runs around 2000 at 55 (in 4th with no lockup). You can also test to see what gear it's in by moving the ...

I guess I always thought that engine fires on 3800s were cause by the dread UIM failure! Shows how much I know! haha. Like Andrew said, it screams H-Body. Even whats left of the seat you can tell it's similar to the Bonneville seats (if not the same)

A friend of a friend posted these pictures on facebook of her car. Supposedly she had smoke coming from the hood, pulled over, popped the hood and it was on fire. Most certainly a UIM failure I'd say. Can you guess what it is? I didn't know at first, but I think I got it figured out.

Did you do all the work yourself?? I'd love to see some in progress pictures if you have them.

Which wouldn't take very *dang* long.

Very nice! That will be a nice addition I'm sure!

Quick Answer: No, don't waste your money. They have shown no noticeable improvement in HP or fuel economy. Back in the day the did help for carbureted or TBI engines, but they do no good for our engines. I'm sure a few others will chime in when morning comes with more information on why they are a ...

I'm glad to hear that it won't be a hot air sucking rice pipe. Let us know if you have anyone other questions. You'll find that this isn't your typical car forum.

If it stays at the same wheel, it is most likely a CV shaft

Not always, there are a lot of things to cause a vibration. Tie rod ends, ball joints, rack and pinions bad or loose from subframe.

If it is still there after rotating the tires, put it on jack stands and crawl under it and see if there ...

If you're going to use the spectre intake, I (and a lot of others) suggest building some type of barrier between the filter and the engine bay. If you don't it will suck in hot air from the engine bay, and won't give you the best gain. This is why a lot of people go with an intake to goes down into ...

Try to pin point the wheel that is vibrating, then rotate the tires and see if the moves with the tires.

If it stays at the same wheel, it is most likely a CV shaft

If it moves, it's the tire itself.

If it gets worse when you apply the brakes, It is a warped brake disc.

Right on! there are lot's of member's here from MN. I am from the Alexandria Area myself, I go to school in Grand Forks, so I drive through Fargo all the time.

Did that link work for you?

BTW in your name....56554....Are you from Minnesota?

No, it is water proofed already, the connector's have seals on them that keep water out. A lot of people here run Fender Well Intakes (FWI) and have no problems, myself included.

Here's the link to the PCM tray:

That would be your Power Control Module (PCM), it's basically the engines computer. You can get a tray that mounts to the fender that will hold it in place. check out intense-racing.com, otherwise someone here might have one to sell.

Most likely low A/C refrigerant. They system has a pressure switch that won't allow to clutch to engage unless there is sufficient pressure. It's done in order to protect the compressor.
