My buddy bought a trans from him and the tranny is giving him some problems. We would like to exchange it for another one, but we can't get in touch to set something up. If anyone gets in touch with him, would you be so kind as to tell him to call 773-344-0511. Thanks for the help guys! Nomie |

Well, unfortuanately I can't help you much on that one... lol! Please let us know how things turn out for you.
It's sad that he can't even keep tabs on the site that tought him a lot of what he knows about DSM's...

QUOTE (spyonu2007 @ Oct 11 2005, 01:11 PM) Currently Travis is locked up in my dungeon. He is to be sacrificed to the car god. So that's why he doesn't answer his phones (cell or shop), return phone calls, or private messages. I am taking yet another trip down there soon if anybody cares to ride along. Or maybe P.M. me your questions, comments, and?or complaints and I will make sure he gets them. That is if he is there this time. -------------------- Brian J

Ben, message delivered
Apparently he had an issue with his answering machine BTW.....Engine is in, car is running but will not idle and does not smooth out until about 4200 RPM. Possible vac leak, timing off by a tooth although it appears to be dead on, or possibly the intake man didn't seal completely. Any other suggestions? -------------------- Brian J

Could alse be an ignition issue. Check plugs, wires, coils, etc.

Start diagnosis.
Boost leak test Pull spark plugs and MPI relay(ground spark plugs on valve cover and crank for test) Check timing with a timing light and line up marks on cam gears and crankshaft Check the logger and make sure it's still communicating with the ECU, if not try a new ECU Sounds to me like an injector stuck open or a missfire. Make sure you have the plug wires on well enough. I've had one not go on all the way and had a similar problem. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"
