Full Version: she runs!

After toils and troubles, my Laser finally runs again. Turns out I fried the poopy out of my ECU. Although it still has quite a few problems, the car is now basically driveable, at least enough to get me to work and back. Over, I am VERY pleased to have her back.

HUGE THANKS to KOUIN3 and Xian1G for getting me the parts, Mitsu77 and TurboHcar for helping me out with a shitload of problems she was having, Forcus for dropping the tranny, as well as to JVB and TurboTension for putting up with my carless pooper for the last few weeks!

Glad to help even though I didn't do a whole lot. Wish I could've done more. Maybe when my leaks are solved we'll have a lil get together between the Laser and my Talon? tongue.gif

so does this mean i have to pay up the pocket lint and .23 cents from our 'the real race, not on the street, but too the street' , as in who will be up and running first?


dammit! i liked my pocket lint.

lol!!!!!!!!!!!


On a brighter side, car runs even BETTER now. No longer dies at idle, holds 1000 strong. Still cuts out like a whore stealing your wallet at 5500 though.

yeah, i was wondering how many of those issues the ecu would tweak out just by learning...

Glad to hear its running biggthumpup.gif Is your 5500 RPM cut fuel cut? Have you checked for boost leaks or are you running to much boost?

ecu cut at 5500 before it was in my car, we thinks it might be a tad screwy.

Not bitching though, because at least the car gets me back and forth to work. Thats all I ask right now.
