Xeek's '91

[Xeek]

so i checked my plugs, plug #2 and #3 are a red color on the tip(ac box side, middle and rear plug). other 4 are normal.
tested the plug wires and #2 and #3 are bad. so a new set of wires is in order.


upon further testing for my stumble and stall with hydrolocking on restart issue.. seem an injector is dumping fuel into the cylinder *sometimes* when you turn the key to on but not start it. so prob a set on injectors will be coming up also.


all thats left is that damn ******* litter(jds typo ). i have a plan to try and clean it and make it work. hopefully it works

Hey you tested...cough coughhahah yea misted them with water and it was like a lightning storm!!!ill bring the the stethoscope over when we try and flush that litter out !!!hahahah we should have vid the plug wire and shown how to test them for other,sure it would have looked cool!!

 

[Xeek]

i never said 'I' tested the wires, i just said 'tested', didnt say who
we can always do it again. i doubt any of our cameras will catch it tho.

new wires are ordered already, $35.03. not as bad as i thought. i was gonna get some jbas but summit said they wouldnt be shipped until 12/27 :/
so i just got motorcrafts off rockauto

 

[jd4242]

Yea my phone is hd and your camera is sick but it happens so fast you might be right.

 

[jd4242]

That's cheap.if i was you would replace the plugs with some cheap old ngk also.like a $1 a plug

 

[Xeek]

nah, id get the motorcrafts

 

[jd4242]

Either or.don't know the price of those.i run ngk

Easy way to get the reaction on video is to video someone touching the wires.

Well I got one better.... when I was younger, say 7-8 years ago, I had a Ford Probe that had a misfire, for some strange reason my brain said pull a plug wire with the car running....some godawful amount of volts running through my system later I let go of the wire.... needless to say the coil was good.

 

[Xeek]

whats the test procedure for the MAFS? i connected + to the wire labeled "D" and the - to the on labeled "B"(can use B or C, as they are both ground. B was just easier to get probe on).

i got a reading with the truck off and the harness plugged into the sensor, 3.73 ohms. i didnt know id get a reading with it off, so now im unsure im doing it right.

junkyard trip over the weekend. all cleaned up and this is after the first coat of paint.

 

[Xeek]

project #1 completed.

4" + f150 seats + fa400 arm + unsettled suspension = this angle.
after settling and with a fa600, i think it would be close to straight.

ps, yes i know the diff leaks from everywhere. im not gonna take it back off

 

[jd4242]

Did you adjust you camber at all? Looks like a fa 600 might make it bind

 

[Xeek]

no, im going in for an alignment tomorrow.

why would it? all it does is drop the hole. that would make it close to even, like it was before the spacers

 

[jd4242]

Nope it drops it and moves it backwards.

 

[Xeek]

backwards?? why does it do that?


breaks over tho, time to go out and do project #2.
next weekend will be one more project
