Well planning out how to reinforce the tracbar mount and this is how I plan to attached it to the engine xmember along with where I'm going to mount the cb radio which I need to get a mount for.

How's the progress?

 

[dangerranger83]

Well, got my tbird "fixed", hesitates when taking off from a stop and at speed dive I dud the intake change on it, so I need to get it hooked to a scanner and go from there, but I'm hopefully going to be starting on the trackbar reinforcement soon, have everything to do it except time and since the car isn't 100%, I don't want to start on something like that and then it have an issue and I'm SOL on a vehicle.

Have you checked the fuel pressure? Or do you think there's a vaccume leak?

 

[dangerranger83]

According to codes pulled, it's a miss on bank 1 so I'm figuring out what bank one is on it.

you might also want to pull the mass flow thing, and clean it, I know it helped a lot on my Father-in-Laws Explorer when I cleaned it, it had a miss, and hesitated on pulling out from a dead stop.

also helped the fuel mileage too.

I cleaned it a few months ago but I guess it wouldn't hurt to clean it again. Going to go outside to check one more time for a vacuum leak.

Here's a link to the build thread here on TRS.

Been awhile but anyways got this tach for free, but trying to find out what brand it is. The small tach is gone now and the new one is hooked up but the truck won't start and my volt meter is gone so I will have to go to HF tomorrow to get one and see if I'm getting voltage to the coil. Nothing changed while wiring this tach in, same wire locations as the old one, which I found out its ground wasn't hooked up causing it not to work on the small one.



Maybe next will be getting my temp gauge in after I figure why she's not starting.

Start with the basics: air, fuel & spark.

Engine started up, guess I flooded it earlier today l. Here's a picture of the tach working. The back light on it changes to a warmer color as I come closer to my set rpm to where it tells me to shift, 3000 rpm, which is what I have it set at. I'm idling at 1000 rpm so I need to turn that down a bit. Not bad for what I'm told is a Chinese brand and for free. Going to get the wired into a harness tomorrow and singe huge house clamps to hold it onto the steering column better.

Sweet! Now you'll be able to watch your RPMs for better MPG's.
I'd like to install on in my rig too.
