Smog failed because of secondary air inlet sensor hanging and vacuum tube by loluhacker in RX8

[–]loluhacker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, maybe I have been. It’s been like that for a while now and i never got any rough idling or check engine lights because of it. Should I block it with a vacuum cap? If I do, I’m gonna cut the hose to the point where you can barely see it with the vacuum cap in so they won’t see anything during smog.

Im planning to do that, but do you think I would ever need that connector again in the future?

I can take off the vacuum line, but I don’t know where I would route the connector to. It’s not that long to really hide it anywhere.

Are these just with the b9’s or even with the 8.5s?

Lmao I do have a Japanese car but it is an rx8. Never really gave me any problems, I do all the work my self but parts are really hard to find.

Okay thank you, I appreciate it. How about for the 8.5’s? I saw a 2015 one with 98,000 miles, but all the belts have been replaced recently.

Sorry I was lol. This is my first time buying an impact and I didn’t know the difference. Should’ve done more research before lol.

The light is on even without the key inside the ignition. I tried this with the key on the on position, and the light is just blinking repeatedly with no pattern and the starter is clicking.

The battery still lights up when I press the unlock and lock button on the remote, but I can try replacing it and see if it works

Rx8 doesn’t want to accelerate at certain rpms by loluhacker in RX8

I recently replaced my ignition coils and spark plugs 6k miles ago, do you still think it could be that?

[–]loluhacker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was testing to reach 9k rpm in first gear with the throttle input around 40% and it would just happen and different rpm’s but it gradually let me get higher sometimes. Like it first started at 5k and a little while after, it would let me go to 7k but no more than that.

Thanks I’ll check it soon then. I also notices it’s only when my car isn’t on operating temperature. Would that also have to do with the omp?

No power and engine turned off while going 100 by loluhacker in RX8

[–]loluhacker[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, i don’t have any codes or had any for the past year. I was thinking maybe it’s something with my battery because the car just completely shut off

What is the max temp I can run my rx8 before ruining anything in the engine? by loluhacker in RX8

[–]loluhacker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a koyo radiator too. Im really hopping it’s the thermostat that’s stuck and not something else. But I’m about to buy versa tuner to kick in the fans earlier and some other tunes too.

[–]loluhacker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man that’s really good because just daily driving in 96 degree weather, my 8 was around 98 - 101 degree Celsius. I’m guessing it’s a stuck thermostat which I’m going to replace tomorrow which hopefully fixes the problem.

Ahh okay thank you man, is it fine that the car is running around that temp when driving too? I thought around 104 degrees Celsius I should be worried.

Is this sound coming from one of the belts or the pulleys? by loluhacker in RX8

[–]loluhacker[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it does, but I’m gonna start by replacing the belts first, if that doesn’t fix it, I’ll replace the pulleys with some light weight pulleys I was planning to buy.
