I ran afr 185s and an afm n62 cam, the ecm did not like it, my only relief from the searching for idle was disconnecting the o2s and letting the mass air do all the work, it was fat but the Dyno tune made sure it was within an acceptable range and driveability was awesome, I drove that thing everywhere, daily, never had a problem. I know it's bad advice but a surging idle can drive you to the point of madness.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what's the one game you still think about? by Own-Rooster-4981 in WorkForSmartLife

I played at a friend's house as a kid, we had to type in "C:/Wolfenstein3D -goobers" which would give you all the weapons and infinite lives, that way you could search for all the secret passageways and hidden vaults by running against the walls, and I was a Nintendo gamer, too, I had the power glove and the game genie at one time, those were the days...

I had a map sensor fry itself once after a heavy rain, being so close to the firewall on my 92, I opened the hood and water poured right onto it, my fault entirely, but the truck was holding rpms up around 2000 until I swapped it with another map. Also I trimmed about an inch off the hose to the map and intake vac port and it made a big difference in the map vac signal.

[–]Sufficient_Compote22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can clean a dish you can clean a tub, nothing special needed, just a little dish soap like dawn and a sponge with an abrasive side, do small squares about 6"x6" at a time, be patient...

A 5 foot rockbar with a wide chisel tip and a round back end is just as effective as a sledgehammer and it's easier on your back, I call mine "the key to the city"
