hughdogz Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Phuckin' sweet dude!! Were you able to get an oil feed-line setup from oil filter service? I wonder if the hybrid turbo will hit harder than the stock T3. :eek: I'd love to help you tune it, but I think my wideband O2 sensor went out on my LM-1. :mellow: Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 bitchin im glad all the big bugs have been worked out we need pics of it and the busted turbo Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 LOL i fired it up and went to the gas station but my batt is totally dead and i had to get a jump to get back, besides not being tuned its running pretty nice :D Were you able to get an oil feed-line setup from oil filter service? I wonder if the hybrid turbo will hit harder than the stock T3. :eek: I'd love to help you tune it, but I think my wideband O2 sensor went out on my LM-1. :mellow: I cut the messed up section out of my oil line and put some braided steel rubber hose there for now. there was like some super hard baked in oil in there or something, it was some nasty stuff. lol who knows I havent got on it yet, still gotta break it in nice a good. bummer man, arnt those widebands spendy? :blink: bitchin im glad all the big bugs have been worked out we need pics of it and the busted turbo lol Ill get some soon as I clean up out there.

hughdogz Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 bummer man, arnt those widebands spendy? :blink:Yes. A Bosch LSU 4.2 sensor usually runs about $100. About the same price as 4-5 rear oil seals, maybe cheaper than a turbo rebuild or replacement turbo caused by a plugged oil feed line. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment

Skib Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 nice, how did u find out they were bad? I knew not all the cyl where firing so I started with getting new plugs since they where all black and I stuck the new ones in, runs the same. so I pulled all the wires and turned it over a few times then pulled each plug and cyl 3 and 6 where dry as a bone while all the others had fuel on them.
