My latest list of problems.

Post by sullione »

Well, after sucessfully replacing (knock on wood) duty solenoid b in the tranny the other day, more problems have come up with my car. I noticed that the hesitation issue has returned and I have no idea why. I have replaced the battery with a new red top and the altenator was replaced about 4-5 months ago...along with ground wires and battery cables. Last night after I reset the TCU by pulling the fuse, I was driving and the CEL came on. I pulled the code for it and it was for the o2 sensor. I replaced it about 2 years ago. I reset the ecu and I'll update it if throws the code again. I also noticed that when I fill up the gas tank, the needle stops short go the full line. This is starting to get under my skin. I'm still upset that the car has been hit multiple times just sitting while I was in Iraq. I don't think I will fix the body until I'm sure most of the mechanical issues are worked out. Suggestions are welcome and encouraged.

Don't worry about the gas gauge thing. Few of us have gauges that work anymore.

Ditto

What with the odometer and the fuel warning light(works),
I usually make out all right.

Except one night last August when lost in the fog on the way to Port Angeles on the Olympic Penninsula.

Came out of the fog on the main road into town and the tank went dry.
No problem--it was late at night, no traffic and it was 3 blocks down hill
to an open service station.

The good luck didn't end there--the newly installed Walbro pumped up
a dry fuel system. :-D two of us :-D
