He wont. I would punish him. Hes been kinda lazy to get it over here so I can pull the blend door actuator out and epoxy it though.


All I did to mine today was throw $25 in its tank and then listed it on ebay for sale. :(

Lazy huh bish...
 
Just took out the DZA1 PCM and installed a W3Z2 from a 93 and it runs fine. Only took 10 minutes to do.

Disconnected the battery for a few minutes.

When I connected the battery, 5 seconds later, I heard something click and another noise. Not sure what that was all about but it cranked right up and is running good. Since the W3Z2 commands 15 psi more trans fluid, I'm going to go ahead and do the J-Mod to it because I have zero issues with my trans. No shuddering or anything and hopefully it never starts.
 
Gonna change the oil in the '96 today. It's still showing 30% life left, but it's been a tad over 3000 miles since the last oil change. Yeppers. I'm old school. I change my oil every 3K miles. Sometimes even sooner than that. That's how I roll:)
 
Rough shots but you get the idea..
There are some new headers up in there somewhere....Will post sound clip as soon as we get the engine back together.

Fuggin fuggidy fugg. Went out to visit my faTher and as I get almost 100 miles from home I blew out my front drivers tire. Of course the spare don't fit over cobra brakes so I had to pull off the rear tire and slap it up front then put the spare on the back.
I tell ya, a 275/40 fits on the front but there is under 1mm between the tire and spindle.
 
Replaced upper and lower control arms, sway bar end links, and strut rod bushings on my granddaughter's 94.
 
114k and I installed a new air filter, fuel filter(first time replaced) and a rear brake pad swap. Tomorrow when it's nice and cold the new spark plugs go in and we see how much smoother it runs :confused:
 
Installed rear speakers and prepped for the fronts. Gotta finish up the fronts tomorrow with more sound deadener. Also ran out of electrical connectors Doh!
 
went to Advanced Auto picked up a new battery, 5quarts of Mobile 1 and a Mobile 1 filter($32.00 special) and put regular coverage back on it
