ive searched already did the checks

( plugs , plug connections, coil connections, line connections, fireing order )

so as you guys know i blew off part of my top end.


got her back together no leaks finally ( after 6 gallons of coolant )


now she wont idle right.

i checked all above, re flashed and everything but shes still sounding like shes missing then give it any amount of gas and its a bang as loud as my .357


out of drivers side ( independent duals )


what to do what to do?

heres a few clues:
1) EGR system not functioning properly
2) vacuum leak
3) damaged valve springs or sticking valves
4) vacuum leak at the intake manifold or vacuum hoses


with my luck all of the above.

ima go out tomarow and take her whole top end off AGAIN and work on it.


least im mostly fixed.
4.10s arrive tomm! wahoo!

I have an idea -

Take apart the whole car piece by piece! Then put it all back together. :bigthumbsup

belive it or not, i started that this morning. i know its on drivers side, i swapped old coil back on. im takeing it all back apart. im going to replace, injectors, while im in there, and pull the heads off and check all the arms springs adn rods.


anyone know of anything i should do while in there? ( other than upgrade )

if you pull the heads, i`m thinking de-bur,port and polish. maybe get the valves re-done, maybe different guides, tricked out rocker arms, slight mill to clean them up. then ya, bore it out, pistons, cam, better oil pump, deep pan, the works. :D

Sorry to hear about your stress free injury.

They suspect a broken valve/rod/spring ?
What does Obama have to do with your warranty?
And last but not least, why won't you return to Michigan?
