It runs too smooth to have a cylinder not firing. I had another 4 cylinder vehicle that dropped a cylinder and it ran extremely rough, not nice and even like this. It's not a sticking caliper,...

No codes. Plugs look normal.
My car was left sitting for a couple of months while I was figuring out electrical issues. Fired up just fine yesterday, but when I took it out for a test run, I noticed that it would bog when taking...
I bought a Brute Power pump and housing assembly. I hadn't run the car for a few days, so yesterday I went out to start it. I turned the key and listened to the pump prime. I turned the key off,...
Replaced the fuel pump in my 86 New Yorker. Having a hard time starting it. Once it finally fires, then it starts fine afterwards. It's just trying to fire it after sitting over night. Do I need to...
Pulse dampener. lol I have seen similar units on home water tanks before. Just was having a brain fart and couldn't think what it was called. Thanks for the input. Like I said I had been all over...
Ordered a new fuel pump for my 86 NY'r turbo a few weeks back. Finally got around to pulling the old one out yesterday and they look nothing alike. The old pump is a Bosch that is massive in...
Thanks. I got the car up on ramps and think I can change the pump if I drop the rearward side of the tank just a couple of inches.
Want to change the fuel pump in my E-class and have a couple of questions before I start. Got the car on jack stands and started looking at electrical connections and hoses to remove. I can see the...
After digging around on line, I found a diagram that identifies the relays. It is definitely the the ac cutout relay. Can I just unplug it?
It could be the ac cutout relay. Some one before me removed the ac and it looks like they just cut the wires going to the compressor. Am I correct in thinking that the relay also increases the idle...
Okay, under the hood of my car, there are 3 relays on the driver side. Two are mounted on the front of the strut tower and one is mounted to the inside of the fender. I am trying to find out which is...
I am not sure of the temp. I have the digital dash and normal running temp is at 5 bars. lol Sorry , just had a passing thought about 5 bars! Anyway, the fan doesn't come on until it reaches 7 bars...
1986 New Yorker turbo car is taking longer for the cooling fan to come on. Makes me kind of nervous sitting in traffic. When I unplug the sensor, the fan comes on immediately. Could the sensor be...
Well, my New Yorker has been on the back burner. Went out today to move it into the shop and it didn't want to start. When I turned the ignition on, instead of hearing the fuel pump prime, I got a...
It's become intermittent as well. Left me sitting on the side of the road again and when I ran a jumper wire from the battery+ to the coil+, the pump would not run.
Okay, that's some good information to start checking out. I myself, am electrically challenged. I see wiring diagrams and get cross eyed. I will start at the firewall connectors and work my way back...
I don't believe it's a fuel issue at this point. I can hear the fuel pump prime and stop when it builds pressure. Every time it shuts down, there is no spark. I've checked it multiple times.
Okay, I am back at square one. Took it out this afternoon. Ran great for the first 15 minutes and then left me sitting at the side of the road. Tried a jumper wire from + side of the battery to +...
Update. I messed with the ignition switch yesterday and it fired up. Took it out and drove it around for about 20 minutes and it seemed to run okay. Did an 80 mph blast down the freeway and back...
I haven't checked for power in the bus. It's possible that the fuel pump isn't priming now. I used to hear it very pronounced before, don't remember hearing it the last time I tried to start it. I...
I have been dealing with the issue of intermittent spark for months now. I installed a new coil, a new LM, I've checked the connections to the LM and PM. I replaced the PM with a spare that I had...
Forgive my many questions, I'm just trying to understand the systems. Is it conceivable that the PM could still be ok and yet the ASD relay inside it be bad or intermittent? Is it possible to use an...
Next question... Is there a way to bypass the ASD altogether?
Thanks, I will try that. I do have a new pump, but the weather has been uncooperative, so I haven't been able to swap it.
