i finally got it (at like 5am when it was still dark out and 23*F). what can i say i wanted to get this dam job finished!
anyway, at the advice of someone on regalgs.org, i went to Wal-Mart and...
i replaced the fuel pump with a Walbro i bought from PRJ Performance (installed in the original fuel pump module). the problem is, i CANNOT push the FPM down far enough to get the lock ring back in...
sounds like we need to make a road trip to Lincoln Jeremy ;)
i use a trim removal tool like this:

it actually works pretty well!
btw, are you getting any codes? i think you just need to ground pin 'A' and 'B' in the ALDL dianostic connector with a paperclip and the CEL will flash the codes at you. it will start with code...
thanks Clayton and see you then!
yes the car was originally white. the door jambs are still white.
btw, concering pics # DSC03829.JPG through DSC03993.JPG (in the turbosedan/com/spiritrt index) are NOT of my car - those are of my brother's white car (he uploaded those pics into the wrong index by...
here is a high res pic of the engine bay (before TiAL BOV and vacuum distribuiton block were added). the previous owner repainted the valve covers orange for some reason. the engine has all new...
crap i'd call Clayton but i don't have a cell phone at the moment. wish he was online because there are some others interested in the car. after the CSX #667 ordeal it would be nice to hook him up...
as you probably know Clayton, my car is in Gillette, WY 82716. NOT a project this is a good daily driver that has been gone through. if you can live with the crappy paint job this may be the one...
no, that i was going to sell #667 to Clayton but it didn't work out due to us meeting up. in the meantime though, i lost my job so i guess i have some free time :( just another reason i need money...
now THAT is ironic!
could be a bad ground somewhere. check to see if the battery terminals are tight to begin with.
forgot to mention it needs a new rear spoiler (end is cracked off)
125,xxx miles, used to be white but someone painted it blue. BAD paint job. that's really the only thing wrong with it. if someone here knew how to repaint this would be a NICE car. NO RUST! no...
woot! do i win a prize? :D
j/k. this is a common fail problem with these cars and good news it's easy and cheap to fix. i have the 4T65-E in my Regal.
my friend's GTP is like that right now lol. he lost his keys and had to have the dealership make them again, and for some reason they had to reflash his PCM and he lost his DHP tune. with the stock...
what kind of supercharger does the SRT-6 use? CSC? Eaton roots-style blower? maybe a whipple? i looked at allpar and wikipedia and could not find the info. even looking at a pic of the engine...
sound like the TCC solenoid?

nevermind. i didn't even realize that i could just look under the hood of my brother's Shelby Lancer. me = idiot!

this is for an '87 CSX. i reinstalled the vacuum harness but the hood is not original and does not have a vacuum diagram sticker. i *think* i got it all right but i want to be sure. there are two...
