page 170ish of the parts catalogue has a pcv hose diagram and part numbers etc..

if you read two posts above you i did get it bench tested and it failed. i have already got a new one and installed it with my new battery and all is well so far.

if somehow it dies again ill post up but for now were A OK.

i AM rude.

i hate when people say that. you really think that with all i have done i wouldnt have checked that?

nothing personal but everytime i see a thread like this someone asks that.

The concern is still what killed the battery. you my friend were correct. this "new" alternator turned out to be defective. i got it bench tested and it failed. after yelling at the place i bought it from 9 months ago (1 month of driving on alt fwiw) because i lost the warranty papers, i ...

i am beginning to thnk a piston in the duty c valve body is stuck or a passage is clogged. i am going to use the spare extension housing and valve body from my donor 4eat which i know is clean and clogless. if it doesnt work ill look a little more in depth. its gotta be as problem located in the ext...

by eliminating the pcv, i did not mean i cappe dit all off and called it a day. im not that retarded. both valve covers, and both crankcase vents are routed to a catch can which is vented to the atmosphere.

no, theres only one way it goes on. the way i figure theres only a few possibilities. its either mechanical, or electrical. if electrical, the problem lies in the wiring between the tcu and solenoid/sensors, or a failed/failing solenoid/sensor. if mechanical, it would be either a clutch pack issue (...

found the tcu and tested the duty c soledoid curcuit with and without the fwd fuse. it is good.

next i will have to test the wiring harness for power and continuity. and eventually the solenoid itself.

i may do a line pressure test if the wiring stuff checks out fine.

the fluid has been changed 4 times.

while mashing, the power light was on, and i was spinning one of four tires. twas fully warm too.

where the hell is the TCU??

i reset the tcu, and it does act differently, but still no awd. on the bright side (maybe) my power light came on when i mashed it, and turned back off, i read this is normal. i am pretty sure the clutchpacks are not burnt, the tranny i got was in very good condition. the duty solenoid again, was te...

thanks for the link, im not a member of that board but ill sign up and poke around for info. i seem to be having the opposite of torque bind, my rears dont work at all. anyway, motor is all done im just waiting for my hoodscoop to be repaired after dumbshit kids bashed it in while it was parked outd...

ok, so now that i have my motor up and running good, i'd really like to get the awd working so i can have some real fun in the winter. here we go. it's a 4eat. when i put the motor in, my bro and i replaced the duty c with a good working unit, i also changed the clutch packs with a lower km donor ca...

well i had two batteries, it appears both are dead. the first one that came with the car sat for a little over a year and i have no idea how long it was in the car before that at the auction yard. this is the battery that this thread is about. i put it back in the car and was hoping it would work. t...

yeah, the other day i did an overnight charge and i was able to run errands for half the day and so i shut it down and started it 5-6 times.

when i got home into my garage, i tried to start and it wouldnt. boy was i lucky there.

i got the car started after charging it. when the car was running for a minute, the voltage at the battery was 14.5x so that means the alternator is working, right? i took off the charger last night when it was able to turn over under its own power. this morning it read 12.50, when i put the key in ...

ok so i tested the battery, and its putting out 12.48 volts. when i turn the key it starts dropping, and keeps going down until i take the key out, at which point the battery starts to recharge itself back up to 12.48. something is draining the battery as soon as i turn the key or when the car is ru...

i installed an aftermarket front axle that was too short and ended up popping out when i was trying to turn around on a busy sidestreet.

may not pertain to your situation, but anytime someone says thump thump thump while turning i immediately think axle.

it is an aftermarket alternator. i bought it brand new about two months before it sat. ill have it tested hopefully today or tomorrow. i wish i could push start it, but the 4eat kind of limits that.

I just swapped in a lower km shortblock after the car had been sitting for the entire summer. I drove the car around for a few hours and noticed the starter starting to crank slower as i ran my errands, being a fresh motor it fired up right away. when i got home in my garage and tried to restart the...

started it up last night, fired up first time after priming.

runs great but i think i need a new battery. i have a brand new alternator so i think its gotta be the battery.

motor runs so smooth and the idle is solid.

so far so good.

what manual are you using? i followed the steps in my hayes and had no trouble at all. it was actually pretty straight forward. line up marks on pulleys, timing covers, and proper belt teeth spacing and then put it back together. ran perfect. your paragraph was so confusing to read so it makes under...

funny, when i asked this question everyone said it was my pump. bastids.

either way, clean and reinstall the pressure sensor and see if it works if you want to save cash. worked for me, but for good measure i ganked a used one from the JY.
