haha it would if I were able to get traction with them.

Here is one of my other vehicles I built. Bought her as a completely stock automatic down south a ways when I was on my way back from visiting Tennessee and drove it back. Swapped in a 5spd and began the proccess of making a serious sleeper. I won't flood the thread with too many pics but here's...

I've been hooked since the first episode and that last episode was probably the most boring since the beginning. Also I always find it funny when they use little pocket knives and such to kill zombies in close quarters. I mean I'm pretty sure it would be fairly easy to come across a machette or...

Ouch! It's all fun and games til you break something:shocked:

Thats out in Sedona, Arizona. I had a lot of nice pictures from my visit there and my drive across the country back to Vermont but unfortnately I lost most of them.

Half as much to be exact

No I haven't done headgaskets yet. The motor needs to be rebuilt or swapped this spring anyways which is why there is no way I'm spending the time digging into it to get to the knock sensor. I'll be making a new spot on the block somewhere to run a new sensor. This motor still has plenty of life...

Yeah I don't mind winter. I love a little snow bogging and trail riding but yeah this recent cold streak was a bit cold for me. A few of those days it didn't get past 0 out here during the day. As for the intake, thats all good :clap2: All of the ignition components are in good working order...

That is actually what I thought was causing the problem to begin with because it acts like its pulling a lot of timing under load. But my friends who deal with these 3.0's told me when the knock sensor goes bad/unplugged, the motor won't run. I don't have enough experience with these motors yet...

Bump.. This is not a fuel pressure, compression or vacuum leak issue. Runs fine until it reaches operating temp and enters closed loop...

Front end hopped out of the ruts = stuck Mud pit I was beating it through until my alternator belt broke. Crawled out my moon roof to hook the cable up on that one.. We won't get into the story on this one but there was broken front end parts and no 4 wheel drive involved :clap2: The old...

No none of that is the problem. It is a sensor or electrical problem. I also see I have a code 42 which is for the vehicle speed sensor. This article I think explains it. MOTOR Magazine Article | MOTOR Information Systems So maybe it actually has nothing to do with the fact that it overheated...

Alright I'll keep this short and simple.. The other day I badly overheated my 1993 3.0 and when it happened the CEL came on. Since then anytime the engine gets up to operating temperature and enters closed loop the CEL comes on and the engine bogs down to where its not driveable. It will idle...

Hyde, I think that was I Am Legend lol. Those were vampires or something but either way they seemed to have quite the fortress built so I'll see you there. Me and the runner will be coming in hot :AK47: Thats a nice 1st gen though
