    The two wire plug to my idle air control valve ......... the ground wire was showing open . I had 11.6 volts to the positive side . so I just grounded the ground wire to the engine . now it has weird idle issues . does the ground wire go thru the ecm . . it runs better un hooked . just wont idle when cold. and starts hard . arrgggg.

    My 1991 loyale will discharge the battery if not run in 3 or 4 days , Alternator is good , Battery is new , and I load tested it , Did a specific gravity test, all cells good . I remember hearing about the ignition switch going bad and doing all sorts of weird things. Any help would be appreciated .

    Tap the holes using a 7/18 x 18 tpi tap . no need to drill it out. then buy 7/16 exhaust studs .

    + 1 on the plugged cat . a T P S wouldn't keep it under 25 . and it would throw a code ? is the CEL on ?

    My next step is to use a test gauge to verify the oil pressure . I was just paranoid and didn't want to do any damage im sure I am over thinking it. it did seem to shoot out a lot of oil from the sending unit hole
  11. ivantruckman
    its was just under half on the gauge when cold , the lifters don't pump up , I have only ran it for 30 seconds so far , but usally they stop clattering by then .

    I just used 2 adjustable wrenches . I think the flats on the inner rod is 19 mm ,

    when the dash light glow , is a bad regulator . You will get ac readings on your volt ohm meter .I have had " rebuilt alternators " bad out of the box . some rebuilders just clean and replace only the bad parts . and they don't properly test the regulator .

    Just did a reseal on a ea82 , now I have no oil pressure . there is oil volume . I took out the sending unit and ran it for a couple of seconds . oil everywhere . I have done several of these with no problem . is there a pressure relief check ball that may have fallen out ?

    most small head gasket leaks will happen only at full operating temperature as Subaru nut says
  16. ivantruckman
    ARE ANY RED DASH LIGHT ON ?

    Fell pro Perma torq , no need for warming up and re torqueing . follow the three torque sequences , then add a final step using 50 ft lbs . felpro part number 9392pt

    There is an anti dieseling solenoid that could be causing idle problems .
  19. ivantruckman
    Ebay has 2 used complete throttle body,s for sale . That would include the throttle pos. sensor and Idle air control , the Idle air control would not prevent the car from starting . It just wont idle . there are now 3 listed from 50 to 70 dollars .

    it uses a standard 6200 bearing double shielded , any auto parts store with a machine shop should have it and can press it in .it is retained by a snap ring on the back side . I have done it with a hammer and a punch before , but not ideal .

    This attached pic highlighted spot appears to show the valve seat cracked as well. I will still disassemble it and check further . This 1991 loyale ea82 spfi engine was cruising at 55 mph and started shooting out steam coolant and oil . no water in the oil pan . immediately shut down. no overheat . I suspect the head is cracked to the coolant passage .
  22. ivantruckman
    I don't suppose these are permissible hairline cracks .
  23. ivantruckman
    wow 90 dollars for a bearing . rock auto has them (National) 10.87 + shipping , Timken 40.79 , Beck /Arnley 40.79 .
  24. ivantruckman
    I think the combination of heavier tires , bad roads, bad springs , no rubber snubbers , and crazy teen drivers . caused them to prematurely fail . thanks everyone for the reply's..
  25. ivantruckman
    should I install the rubber bumper ? I would think with new heavier springs it would not bottom out.
