  1. WAtch out for the tank! 4 minutes and seven seconds and the rest of the video too
  2. YOU can check and see if the struts are blown by pushing down on the corner you think is blown. Push once hard and it should only bonce back up once if it continues to bounce up and down. Usually this means a blown strut because just the coil is rebounding up and down
  3. so im assuming this is why mileage has always been terrible with this car like 15 mpg at most....
  4. Thanks! Thats the info i was looking for! Seafoam? Heard of it....but not for gas tanks..
  5. Ive been looking around at at few things, How do i get to the fuel tank? Could this be a fuel pump going bad?
  6. I changed my filter and it dosent seem to be as bad anymore but the old filter didnt look that bad.. Still nothing over 3000rpms......
  7. Thanks Guys, i might be able to remove my tank but do to time constrains most likely not...., so is there something i can just pour down the tank AS-IS to clean it out without harming the engine?:-\
  8. So today i replaced the coil and the wires, this cleared all my misfire codes. Go to start it up and does exactly the same thing wont idle and throtle is very unresponsive like when you let go it revs. So we disassembled the whole intake up to the throtle body and my brother says, hEY LEts start it for ************s and giggles. So when we start it up it runs perfectly and respends to throttle very good at idle however as soon as we hook up the m.a.f it shuts right down and goes back to its original symptoms.... What Gives?
  9. Thanks, usually they should make it easy for me, but i got to make it easy for them....what a world.
  10. Wow, so by the time i went to 20 stores to find a fuel filter NO ONE had one, SO buy the time, it was too late and got nothing done, I phoned to NAPA 20 mins away, they saud they had it, went to get it AND IT WAS THE WRONG ONE, WHY DO THEY HIRE INCOMPETENT EMPLOYEES WHO GIVE THE WRONG INFO! not happy to say the least, i guess anther day, another battle
  11. Thanks for the help guys, ill get on it tommorow. ill be back!
  12. I come from the world of EJ22's, so what the heck is a float? Also should i just take off my carb for now and clean it?
  13. I think id like to source weber carb aswell, is it easy to do, say a one day job? how much? where to buy?
