  1. Need spacers? I planned on putting something a little more then $24 lol but just curious.. lol Once I at least get the motor and Suspension done I can focus on audio.
  2. You know I was thinking about this when getting gas this morning when I would leave for work like 5-6 months ago the on-ramp near my house I will be in 3rd gear and I'd keep steady on the throttle and you could feel a very slight hesitation back then.. but now in the past few days it's gotten much bigger. when I was last testing fuel pressure like a month ago it seemed to read fine but the pressure went to zero pretty quick after the car was shut off.. i have a youtube video showing that. back when I did that fuel test I wanted to also test the coil pack but I had a hard time getting the clip off.. I think you test between the terminal and one of the pins on the clip? I also got a sound clip of what the car sounds like starting up after sitting for like 40 min.
  3. I think it's my injectors at this point.. I was set to do some work on the car until a friend told me he needed help cleaning out his fire damaged house.. so nothing done today.. When you start the car like right after you stop it like a 3 min break (getting something to eat) its normal but when I was helping move stuff and sitting like 1 hr it sounds almost like a flooded engine when I head back out to get gas (MPG taking a hit) I will be sure to grab a sound clip after it's been sitting for 2 hours. I guess it's not enough to cause a CEL because well the ECU still sees that the injector is connected. and how many miles you got jzacher? I rolled over 232 not too long ago.. but really.. How much longer can I expect for injectors to keep shooting fuel?
  4. I will check both but I figure bad fuel pump would cause issues at idle too right?
  5. I've been noticing something here my car cranking is taking a lot longer then normal it sounds almost like a flooded engine but the idle is fine... but say I'm rolling in 2nd gear at like 25-30 mph and give it more throttle the car hesitates but once it clears the 2-3K range it's fine.. sometimes the car starts fine when off for awhile and sometimes it's the same longer start time.. NOW before you say replace the ECTS I replaced that about 2-3 months ago but that was not the issue (glad I kept the old one) What else could it be? I have no CEL or anything.
  6. haha so what does glossy black with clear bring? extra shine? hahah I might still do glossy black since I already picked the can up.
  7. Trying to think flat black with clear coat or glossy black wth clear coat
  8. NOT FINAL JUST A TEST!! I was unable to get anyone to PS black on the wheels out of the 4 sites I posted on so I decided to use my left over flat black kylon spray paint with a single coat on and took the masking tape. you can see a before and after and two after shots after the test paint. before... After... What do you think of it?
  9. he lives in MA that's like one of the strictest states on the east coast as far as inspections go.
  10. crap it's getting worst now... this is new.. I stopped in advance auto to see how much aircraft stripper was (overpriced) and it all took me like 2 min in the store.. I came back out and started the car and it took like 3 seconds to start the car... Went to the food store after the auto store and same.. However when I got home I turned the car off and waited 5 seconds then started it back up again and no delay between starting and cranking. but the funny thing is it idles normal when it runs
  11. I need to do my cam seals between the two and the real separator plate leaking I need to add some oil about every week but not a qt worth.
  12. Yeah listen to this guy.. I've been without A/C for almost a year and a hate when it rains it's a pain to try and defrost the window with just heat alone and no A/C I can't tell if I have a bad A/C compressor I wont know until i fix the bad pipe between the dyer and evap.
  13. I've never had mine ice over.. I'm sure you know what the job of the condenser is.. they do make a tool that will straighten out the fins on the condenser.
  14. well no misfires.. but good thing I checked the plugs.. it seems like spark plug for #4 was backing out which would explain the gases.. However I did not really smell any gas so I will still end up pulling the fuel rails.. only reason I did not today was I was not sure if the smaller oring had any effect and not having any on hand I did not want fuel all over.. finally got to peer in my cylinders nice to see I still have my crosshatches
  15. the light still says on because the fault is still in the system as soon as the code is cleared.
  16. F this.. I went to pull the spark plug wires.. and I got to the last one for plug 4 and the damn part that plugs onto the spark plug ripped right out of the spark plug boot.. and I'm pretty sure that's not repairable until Friday... having said that the boot for cyl 4 was the darkest but I never got to pull the plug because of what happened.
  17. Im shocked I never got hung up on anything but I know sure as hell I was not climbing that hill like neo lol the biggest issue was my damn finder liners came off... but perhaps that had to do with me removing the little push pins.. they all broke so I never put them back in..
  18. I need a DIY project plus I wont be starting right away. i tried to change the wheel color in photoshop but I could not get the inner part dark enough.
  19. Dont go by what a website says.. it's better to go by what the FSM says.. Subaru made your car not A1 Cardone.
  20. ah sniffing the hole I guess removing the plugs can't be bad.. I replaced them about 10K miles ago.
