Vanislru Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 After doing the HG's the car has no power off the line and about 75% otherwise, I checked the timing and it's good. I did notice that when I rev it up, say 5500rpm it shows about 8psi of boost with no load!. I'm thinking that I've got the t-belts slighlty off by a tooth or so. Has anyone had a similar prob? I'm going to check them tomorrow morn. with any luck that's the prob here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 check the timing belts, check the disty timing. I had the spark plug wires on wrong and it did the same thing...so check that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 Well after adjusting the cam's again, right side off[retarded] by a tooth, the car still ran like crap. So I rechecked the timing, TPS, and then the timing again. Nothing, no power and a horrible idle. Pulled the plugs and they all fired but #3 was kinda cleaner than the rest [i put new plugs in when the hg's were done] so I ohmed out #3 injector and got nothing, injector's toast. Installed a new one and she's running perfectly which makes me wonder if #3 injector was on it's way out and not spraying enough fuel shortly before that sides HG went. Coincidence?

Vanislru Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 is that also where the HG went?yep. Cars running well I just got back from Tofino[small'ish waves, got some tho] ran stock boost and slightly less timing 20' . Tomorrow I pick up the 86 gl-10 turbo 4 dr sedan 2wd that I scored for $250, it's got new lifters and a recent reseal with a fresh turbo too. not bad body but some rust. BUT i just also found a 4dr gl-10 turbo 4wd sedan with a fried motor or $200 so it's swappin time. I should come out of this with a tonne of parts too. Hmmm gl-10 goodies.
