Thread: Taz's Offical Summer/Fall build list.

I ran my L36 maf on my L67 swapped Lumina and never had a single problem with it.

The differences are in the years.

mafs are the same. Oh and just to throw this out there, if and when you get your car driving, and it intermittently shuts off while driving, PM me.

My bad I was thinking pre and post 98

My car won't turn over...

Battery or hydrolocked?

Seems to have battery but I haven't put a meter on it the weird thing is after I try to start it and turn the key back to the off postion my power locks go off twice... so maybe a short on the starter...

If I pull the plugs and try cranking it and it still doesn't budge that would mean its electrical or locked up correct?

If the plugs are out try turning it by hand and that will rule out a locked up motor

it doesn't have a problem with the theftlock stuff does it? i think i read somewhere that if you leave the battery unhooked for 10 minutes, it resets that

good idea

I was able to turn the the crank by hand with the plugs in... my main ground wire that bolts into the frame is striped and you can wiggle the wire a bit I'm thinking that could be it possible I hope

so last night was the first time I really got a chance to look at my car and while I did have a ground problem that wasn't the problem I was looking for... anyways I found it pretty quick and I feel pretty dum to say the least when I re did the coolant elbow.... I didn't plug the alternator back in.... so yea its safe to say thats what killed the battery so my car is offically good to go untill paul tells me all the other things that are wrong with it....

everythings good except the headers tick around 2800 rpms

that video you posted a few pages back, has the idle always sounded like that? where you could kinda hear 3 pulses at idle?

that was when I had a vac leak I got a new vid let me see if i can find it

where was your vac leak at? i'll have to post a video of mine, i can almost count the cylinders firing, and it stops at 3... lol. i know i have one at the throttle body, but i'm also keeping the belt off the supercharger. i know a 3.0" is too small, but i don't have any others. and it keeps throwing P0300 codes, random misfire

Idk if youve seen this one after the vac leak was fixed you can hear it does't surge like crazy anymore

the first vac leak was between the ssic and the s/c the second one was from the map sensor I broke the nipple off of it and didn't relize it

I'm assuming this is the video which you speak of

yep, sounds a lot like the second one. looks like i'm gonna check the seal around the blower and lim along with checking the resistance of the fuel injectors

I'm going to try and put mine on the trailer and tow it over to prj tommorrow I really want to either get this thing working or blow it up.. I still need a belt tho Idk if a stock one will be big enough the one I ordered was too small

had the car running for about 50mins today to try and get some moisture out smoked a little for the first ten then stoped but no leaks or codes seemed to run pretty well.

Ive only changed the oil once since the swap and I didn't change the filter then I want to change it all today because I'm seeing a good amount of moisture on the cap and the dip stick was milky do I have a leak or is it possible thats just from some coolant that didn't drain out when I drained it?
