Replying to: geometro91 (Nov 05, 2006 11:18 am) Second. Remove the exhaust manifold. After the exhaust manifold is out - clean very well the opening ( 1/2" dia.) accross the cyl.head. From the exhaust to the egr. Look at the exhuast minifold and you will see small hole running between the "exhaust collectors" 1 - 2 -3. The opening is less than 1/8" dia. Use the transmission fluis to clean the passages. Put the one site of the pipe cleaner to the transm. fliud and insert in every small hole. Must go thru. If is plugged, put more transm. fliud in the openong in leave for 15 min. and try push thru. If will not open the hole, use some sharp wire and push. By gental to nor brake the wire. Also you can use high pressure air to clean the passages. Replace all bolts with studs. Easy to work. Use grade 9 or 10 studs. Open the ehaust manifold inlets abut 45 degree angle , the flow will be easier. Before instaling the studs, retap the thread in the cyl. head with greas. Use copper grease to install the studs in the cyl. head. Any questions, let me know. Pipeman - visit my web www.bacartpipes.com

Replying to: pipeman (Nov 05, 2006 4:21 pm) No sure what you mean by opening up the inlets on the exhaust manifold. Are you talking about taking a die grinder to the manifold itself? If so how far back should the 45 degree bevel go? Thanks, geometro91

Replying to: geometro91 (Nov 06, 2006 12:24 pm) Also you can do 45 on cyl. head. How about those small holes in the EGR , you located that? If yo will look inside the exh. ports you will see small "pipe" on the bottom of the runners. Let me know.

Hello I live in the state of NY. The weather has been rainy. I cannot start my car. I did get it started (finally)and let it run for about 5 minutes. I gave it some gas (while sitting)and it stalled. My check engine light did come on the other day but has shut off. Help!

Replying to: p10leadman (Nov 17, 2006 6:53 pm) Thank you so much. I still have yet to fix my problem. I will try this. Actually, my car has been sitting in the carport. Afraid to drive. Everything is very old on my car. Never changed spark plugs. Or wires.  Never had enough cash to do so. Now I have a problem. I believe my gas tank probably needs to be replaced and whatever is inside it. I have a leak (gas)on the right side in the back of my car. My brother says my car is junk. Never had any problems. Always started for me. I bought it used. Have had it for, I don't know, maybe six years. Anything else you can tell me would be wonderful. Thanks...Deborah. |

Replying to: deborahf (Nov 20, 2006 9:17 am) I am now trying to figure out how to replace a leaking heater core. Near as I can tell, it must be the first thing installed on the dash ! So, I flushed the system, added radiator sealer and new anti-freeze...maybe I can get away with that temporary fix another year. I think your problems are much less- and the fixes alot cheaper. If in fact the gas tank is leaking, a junkyard visit maybe in order... anew one will be around $99.oo + labor to install it. I never repair gas tanks. Is your car 3cyl, or 4 cyl, automatic, stnadard, does it have ac? 2 dr, 4 door? Good luck
