nope !!! :banghead:

Got the 2 bolts holding the engine mount side to the frame seized !!!
And working in an underground parking in an apt building ( that doesn't allow vehicle work ) being a ninja and having to constantly put the big bolt back into the engine mount Just so I can go upstairs for ...

HAro Haro !!!!! LOL.. yea.. I"m back..
thanks.. LOL.. been a while.

Billwren the drunken monkey.. Thanks for the info.. that helped out a lot

Ya.. thanks for rubbing it in that y2k don't have this issue >:(
LOL..

OK.. my mind is slipping :btruestory:

I got the 3 nuts off the engine mount.. and the big nut and bolt. But theres the 3 bolts that stuck in there thats making a royal pain to get the engine mount out
Anyone got the how to on removing enging mount?

LOL.. I already bought the pump Bill.. and I don ...

Hey hey...
Well if it aint the drunken monkey !!!! :bwoohoo: :poke:
LOL.. hey hey Bill..

Yea.. thats what I thought... yay....
:banghead:

For a bunch of people who has lots of paper saying they're smart and call themselves engineer..
I have to ask one question
"what were they thinking ...

OK... the water pump finally died ( I guess I shouldn't complain.. only replaced water pump once in 11years of owning this car )

I know I will have fun with the power steering pump for that one bolt..

But alas.. I got stuck on the front bolt.. IT hits the pulley thats hidden by the engine mount ...

well.. I worked it a few more times.. and I guess I had to wait for the lube to sit thru.. its not binding anymore.

I"ll have to head out and get some vacuum lines tomorrow since for some reason crappy tire was closed today :eek2: and I wasn't going to drive another half hour to the next one ...

P.S.

Anyone know the part number to the BCA/wastgate actuator?

and the vacuum piping from the vacuum tree thing to the actuator?

So I can look it up on gmpartsdirect.com

Thanks drunken monkey
( and boost monkey )

It is the actuator sticking.

The lever doesnt go all the way to the setscrew at the bottom. I can feel a bind spot ( when I moved it up and down). I also duralube'd the shaft and it still binds. Don't know if its the BCA or something else binding it.
So ...

thanx vas. but I bypassed the solenoid.. and still the same :(

thinking out loud.

I remember reading it years ago bout this, and wondering wat people think...
if I remove the actuator.. and put the lever to full boost to test it out. ( whether or not I can make boost ) to confirm the actuator ...

I haven't run a vacuum test on the actuator..

But I do see it moving from extend to full compress when I start the car.
It will extend when I start giving it some gas.

If the MAP sensor reading was off for some reason.. and with the bypass..overide. wouldn't it be theory still build boost?

When ...

I remember we use to have pics and how to for DIY changin of the S/C coulpler but can't find it.

I'm gettin 0 boost at woot.. and at times it feels like the S/C will slam on in WOT ( I can feel it and see with the boost gauge )

I have yet to take the belt off to check for slack.. but I don't see ...

I rather not have live dangling wires around. So a fuse is more preferable.

No I dont have my manual.. can't find it.. ( but saw it 2 months ago )
Always the case when you need it.. you can't find it :sad5:

Make a long story short.. one of my speed sensor is failing intermitantly causing my ABS to kick in.

So at the current time I want to pull the fuse to disabe the ABS.
Where is the fuse for the ABS?

The compressor will not engage if it senses too low of a pressure in the AC system. Try pumping some freon in ( and or check the pressure left in the AC line )

Just wondering now after a lil more googling.

How would I know if the orifice/ expansion valve is gone?

Where's that link that use to be around bout cleaning the evaporatore core and whatever the heck that lil rad thing is? I"m lookin to see what cleaner I should use on it

:banana: :banana: :banana:

Yay !!! Thanks for re activating my account crouching bill Wren; Drunken monkey :discomonkey: :discomonkey:

Ok.. the pics definitely helped.

So I an rule out its not the air door mix actuator.. it moves bout what seems like 2~ inches from hot to cold.

:bhuh:
So ...
