Well, the main failure is the steel supply line coming out of the sending unit assy. I'm going to drop the tank and see if it's salvageable, if it has no holes, a new paint job with some rust-bullet or similar. Or maybe find someone to do that epoxy coating... I can fabricate a new sender unit assy.

I finally found some info searching on here. Looks like a Galant GSX tank is the only alternative. 90 thru 92... Thanks! -Mike

Anybody with CAPS or knowledge, have any idea if a Galant FWD 91-92 gas tank will fit on a VR4?

1G DSM link for sale. Bought this last fall for my Galant and never installed it. I have a Keydiver chip, and my Galant runs great, and I'm gonna leave it as is for now... I just bought a Jeep Liberty CRD, and I've been busy throwing money and time into the Jeep! The DSM link has been sitting on...

Paypal sent for small homemade catch can. Thanks!

I've been searching my ass off. Only car I can find that this RP2188 is listed for is a 1991 Galant GS 4G63 VIN R. I'm assuming a 2.0 non-turbo. I would sure think this would be the right rack for a VR4 w/out AWS! I might just have to be the guinea pig... I hate this!

OK...RP2352 = Reman Power Rack and Pinion Complete Unit; Front; AWD; w/4 Whl. Stg. - Front Unit $314.99 and 155.00 core! So, that's the real GVR4 front rack.RP2435 = Reman Power Rack and Pinion Complete Unit; Rear; AWD; Rear Unit $179 $60 core The rear steering rackRP2188 = Reman Power...

Where are you getting that rack for 105.00!?! I just went to their website, it's $265.99 with a 50.00 discount for orders over 150.00 or more. $215.99 after returning the core. I'm looking at Fenco #2156 for a 92' awd eclipse.

I'd say get the EuroExport one too. If you ever want to change springs, retainers, etc with the head still on, you can. The others require head removal, and that means a new 150.00 head gasket, and 100.00 head studs. Easy choice!

AFTER I ordered new moog inner tie rods and boots for 140.00, I discovered that I can get an entire rack, with these parts already installed on rock auto for 198.00! The rack I am looking at is a reman for a 91 Eclipse GSX. This will fit correct? (I've already removed and plugged my AWS ports...

Bringing this post back from the dead... I just ruined a brand new Moog lower ball joint boot. I expected the boot to go all the way down around the portion of the ball joint where the C clip attaches. Other ball joints I have installed (non-Moog) have boots that go on like this. I tried...

I'll take it if the sale falls through. Just pm me your Paypal info...

Received mine yesterday! Thanks! -Mike-

Payment sent. Thanks! -Mike

I'm probably going to have the machine work done by a local shop. In Cedar Rapids IA I have Sperry Engines, or Stewart's to choose from. I'm not completely sold on either one, and if somebody has a suggestion that's within a reasonable driving distance that would be great. I know there's some...

OK, the eagle wiseco combo you're talking about is 750 for JUST rods and pistons right? I'm still going to need bearings, and arp mains...

I've read forums til my eyes hurt! All I want to do is bore and freshen up my short block. I've read about evo9 pistons, 2G pistons on 1G rods, and machining the 1G rods to fit, and so on. I'm not opposed to spending 4-500 on new pistons that will fit the 1G rods, 8.3:1 wiseco or similar. I am...

I'll take one! Please add me to the list! Thanks! -Mike

Solved! Comp Cams 101-200 is the part number for the pair...

OK, I found this on carolinadsm So I think I got one figured out. FP2 Cams... 258 Exhaust Grind: XE258HR-111 Valve Adjustment HYD Gross Valve Lift .395 Cam Lobe Lift .232 ADV DUR @ .004 Valve Lift 258 Valve timing @ .050. 46 BBD 14- ATD These specs are for cams installed @ 120.0 Center Line...

No ideas? Anybody know if crower's have nothing more than c c hand engraved? I guess I will just call them...

OK, Good thing I posted this one in Newbies! The valves are not all closed like I was thinking! So, I'm gonna pull the camshafts out, THEN they will all be closed! Then I'll try changing the valve seals. I'm gonna do a rebuild next year, but really sick of the smokey start ups and smell of...

So, I go to change timing belt, tensioners, water pump etc. The Galant has been spewing out blue smoke at startup, and I figured the valve seals are bad. 194k mi on all original engine. I decided to try replacing the seals with the head still on using either the rope trick, or compressed air. I...

Hey Guys, I picked up some cams and other DSM stuff from a guy. He claimed the cams were from a Buschur Head (2G DSM). I'm thinking about putting them in my galant. The intake cam has numbers engraved on it that read:101-201-8I, then below that it says UI2802, there is also two c's engraved...

I'll take em'! Sending PayPal now! Thanks! -Mike

Thanks! The pan looks like a 7 bolt. Looked at my Galant, and they're not the same... Bummer... Time to locate a Hyundai 2.4 I guess?

I picked up a 97 Eclipse GSX for 500. The engine is in pieces (head removed) timing belt broke. I took off the timing covers, and find there's no crank sensor. The car has a 2G intake and head, but had a "black cap" cam sensor installed, and the wiring for the black cap sensor has been extended...

Looking for a long block that is within a reasonable driving distance (200mi or so). I picked up a 97 Eclipse GSX, timing belt broke, somebody removed the head, and left it sitting for years, block exposed to weather, cylinders all rusted up, etc. I figured dropping in a complete 6 bolt would be...

Mine's not listed. I checked my profile and it shows my car as # 75/2000#75/2000 is a DD also btw...

Take a look at the solder connections to the fluorescent display. The display is the biggest component in the SAFC and it may have vibrated it's solder joints loose...

Thought this info could be useful to others...The ECU coolant temp sensor part number MD069879 crosses to a Borg-Warner WT3005 which can be found at most local auto parts stores for less than 20 bucks... It looks like this...-Mike-

What's the part number for the yoke kits you used? What exactly is included in the kit? And since I'm on a roll with questions, how much $$??? I've got a new pair of bearing carriers, but I still need to order the other necessary parts to do the job. Thanks! -Mike-

Thanks again Keydiver. I've got it working nicely now. I had to do some experimenting with the scaling on my LM-1 wideband, but it's reading correct now. I'll also add that the input is very accurate as a voltmeter up to about 4.7-4.8v when I checked it with an HP Power Supply. If anybody else...

Well yea, I really wanna get rid of it! Why not have a good open input to play with??? I'll check it out! Thanks for the info! -Mike-

The ecu pin 15 signal goes into IC101 pin 5 and there's a resistor silk screened on the ceramic substrate. It's a single resistor going right up to the 5 volt line on IC101, and it's probably the pull up, but if I cut/scrape the conductive material off that IC and it's not the right resistor...

One for the ECU gurus... I want to eliminate the pull up resistor on my ECUs egr temp input. I've been following traces and flow thrus on my ecu till my eyes hurt! Anybody here know where the pull up resistor is located? Hope it's not built into one of the vertical ceramic ICs!... Thanks! -Mike-

Hey, I'm not in the registry yet. Number 75/2000 is my DD. Slowly getting the bugs worked out, then it'll be time for some mods! I'll get some pictures up and send my VIN to Iceman for the archives! btw- This board has been invaluable in helping me get some of the car's problems resolved. This...

If you really want some piece of mind, replace the water pump, hydraulic tensioner, and all tensioner pulleys for the timing belt and the balance shaft belt. It will cost a bit more to do, but then you KNOW when they were all replaced too. And they will last thru your next 60K mile belt...
