Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

That motor swap took 3 days because I did it with one arm lol. The only things that needed changed were the motor mount bracket, ac compressor bracket, oil filter housing, and the alternator bracket. And with both motors outside the car is was a matter of minutes to get that done. Oh, and we had to swap the oil pans

I did similar. Just wire right to the light socket

FWIW I swapped the fuel level sensor in the car.

^^ Fingers crossed you didn't piss the pump off?

Shhhhh I didn't tell it that it had a choice.

I did hear it afterwards though. Never usually hear it. Which is odd for a GM pump of it's age.

M21/M26 is a popular combo. My arctic white 02 Camaro is wearing that combo right now and it looks great. Your car would look nice with that combo as well.

Any relation between a P0717 and a P1810? Input speed sensor and now a PCS code.. This things becoming a PITA.

Not usually.. but hey..you break chit

Mr. redneck strut tower wood fixing man broke this one. I'm trying to fix the evil bastard.

Make it wait a month.. the shell will need to be scrapped and you can work on it ...out of the vehicle

You wanna know what I think of when I hear input speed sensor issue?



Just sayin, it takes a bit to do this.

What all did he do to the transmission? Maybe the harness got pinched and wires are broken\shorting or something of the sort?

Yeah that's what I'm afraid it is..

And it was just the P0717 code before, then he told me he "fiddled with the wires and cleared the codes." Then the P0717 went away for a while and the P1810 popped up. Now it has them both. I haven't even touched the damn car yet.

If it cleared with wire fiddling.. you might be in luck.

Start by using a multimeter to check the harness\solenoids. You just have to unplug connector on the top of the tranmission an start check the resistance of the pins...lemme see if I can find the pinouts and resistance values....

trans info by me

external range sensor by me

Yeah I'm gonna check out all the connections and wiring today and hope its an easy fix..

Depends on your definition of easy...the side cover most likely has to come off. Of course, Bill has all that info covered, lol.
