  1. Yup, It's right where FSM says it should be. The belts old, cracked and rotted anyways. I'll pick one ups one of these days Oh and PPK, be patient broski. Coilovers are coming ;) Engine build first.

  3. Went balls out in the 210 earlier. I don't give that thing enough credit. It's ANAL above 4K in the corners!

  4. Spectre isn't an Autozone brand part, if that's what you're asking. It's just a cheap ass brand that Autozone stocks because it's cheap to stock and sell, and all the little ricers can use the crap. http://www.spectreperformance.com/#HOME I won't EVER run a spectre part on my car. But that's just me. Most Autozones stock at least 1 Holley fuel pump in the back for about $60-80. Cheap considering what you're getting, and a true name brand part. I'll see if I can get you a P/N for it tomorrow.
  5. It may have worked on the Hitachi because it used less fuel. Larger Weber with bigger jets requires more fuel that the pump couldn't provide.
  6. Welcome!! I remember this thread from IA! lol (I'm metalmatt) Let me know if you ever need a hand with her I'd be happy to help.
  7. I got more posts today then mike. o.0

  8. That's not 100% correct. Some fuel pumps are okay until they warm up. I've seen several pumps that work great for a few minuets, but after they start to warm up the fuel pressure gradually drops until the vehicle won't run.
  9. Guys quit fighting. I'm just going to relocate the canister somewhere. I really don't want gas fumes leaking out into the air, but the canister is just ugly so I'm going to relocate it and be done with it
  10. Not sure to be honest. It's the Z 6 spoke that I'm referring to.
  11. You can always get a cheap fuel pressure gauge for a few bucks and watch your fuel pressure. If it drops when your engine starts to stall out, theres your problem.
  12. That stuff is pure ether. It's highly flammable/explosive. That's not exactly a good idea on a hot engine. Brake parts cleaner works a similar way. Except it will stall the engine.
  13. The "thing" is the anti dieseling solenoid. It has to be connected to switched 12V. ^^ Thats EGR. If it's not connected then you can just remove it and make a blockoff plate.May not help your problem here, but it would look better then now. Not really much of a reason to remove it though if it's not causing a problem though eh? Try swapping fuel pumps. I just had a friend with an '87 Mustang that had an issue with it stalling after running about 30 minuets. It would gradually start missing, then stall and wouldn't run again. New fuel pump and tadaaaaaaa
  14. It will be a while, but I'll have oics in my build thread when I do. I plan on moving my Optima to the back and clean up ALL the wiring. I'll give the cap a go. I don't smoke anyways. In fact, I considered putting a fuel cell in the car. Just a thought though.
  15. I would leave it, but the issue is, I'm trying to remove EVERYTHING unneeded from under the hood. I'm going to clean it up and paint it when I pull the engine, but I gotta get everything out first. That would be bad to have my tank collapse though What if I just installed a vented gas cap?
  16. Another wonderful day in paradise. I don't work for 4 days straight.

      wish I could afford to do that. My job situation sucks

  17. On the B310, the EVAP can has a line that runs from the fuel tank that vents to the evap canister. It's the only thing I haven't gotten rid of yet. Can I just block this off or get rid of it, or is it completely necessary to have a fuel tank vent?
  18. Fuel injection is FTL. Go carbies They're more spontaneous and fun! Paging mister Mike
  19. ..... you just put your cell number on the wide open interwebz... you shoulda put "PM met for number" :rofl: I usually fuck with people that put there number in public, but I don't feel like doing it tonight. Hope ya find something good to do
  20. I honestly don't even know what happened earlier :rofl: All i know is that it was dumb and someone got in trouble over it. I was just making a joke over Mike because he's the #1 poster on Ratsun and is ALWAYS #1 on posts everyday
