Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Ill have mine 3 years on the 27th.

i put 175,000 miles on my brand new 97 truck in 5 years. do that math, thats a oil change every month. lol

123k when I bought it, 166k 4 years later.

I keep the roads hot haha. So on my way to work tonight I somehow saw 10.9lbs of boost.. DIC error I'm assuming?

You should see my dic its going nuts. One moment its super bright next it off completly. It so random its distracting. It also acts like you just turned on the car lol I need to replace the replacement

Bought it some techron for when I fill up.

now your trying to break it. to see 8 psi its screaming at the top of its rpm range. let it breath a little lol

Changed the water pump. Took alot longer then i wanted it to but at least its done now. Going to the track tomorrow :-)

Dont blow it up and best of luck

I think 10.9psi is because of my massive vac leak and the not so accurate DIC.

fix that sh it lol vac line and T's are like free. 5 bucks can redo most of the top of the engine.

I think it's my plenum gasket. The vac lines are fine. LIM gasket and plenum will be done at the February meet.

Isn't a vacuum leak on a S/C engine dangerous?

A small one, no. Fuel trims will tell the computer to add more fuel like on any other car.

A big vacuum leak on any car will be an issue.

Vac leaks are a never ending battle on these cars..

are they really? i did my lim, busted a few lines, replaced them all, no leaks, before or after the lim job, been over a year now.

They are of you're CapnBreakAlot and can't stop breaking sh it.

True Story

i was possessed by the spontaneous burn out demon when i was a kid. the wheel could break free at any time with me at the wheel lol

so i did tend to break stuff. i was good at tossed drive shafts back in the day. way more dramatic lol not because they were old, bacause i beat them to death, replaced 3 yolks, the rear one twice.
