    Cold plugs would not help that prob. I have had detonation on one of my turbo cars, and the most it did was desolve the tip just a little over 6 months. Those pics are from mass detonation.

    Car will not start..

    Thanks bruce, I'll give that a shot. I find it strange that it just gave out like this. This car does have a secondary alarm system installed by the previous owner which is a clarion black jax. But when this sytem cis activated, it shuts the car down completley. No juice anywhere. Turn key when...

    Car will not start..

    Thanks all. Checked fuses in trunk which are ok-I think. There are some funky looking pink fuses back there. The manual says they are one thing my service manual says they are another. What's up with that? Not sure if you can check relays to see if there working. I guess I should replace??? So...

    Any tips on changing fuel filter?

    Although I have never done it, I'm pretty sure the nipple next to cyl #10(top of intake) will relieve fuel pressure???? Be careful and wrap wrags around it as well before you unscrew.

    Fuel System-related hard start problem help needed

    Is your car smoking (black) when it finally fires up? If that is the case you may have injectors which are leaking down. Or it could very well be powder coating which is causing this. That stuff goes on pretty thick. Your car does have a check valve (maybe). Some tuners take it out so the car...

    If it was me and I had a choice, I would go with roe. I have bought only a few items from sean, but I have emailed him numerous times regaurding other issues with my car.

    Paxton Automotive: Road to Destruction

    I feel for you. As you may know, I have posted about paxton as well. I too have a paxton car. The car's engine blew as well, but not when I owned the car. I brought the car to valaya racing. Ted May could not believe the Cob-Job of a fuel system paxton provided. He ripped it all out, installed a...

    VEC II Software

    I was never given the VEC II software by my tuner, and he can't seem to find the time to copy the cd and send it to me. Does anyone have it? If so can you burn a copy (I will pay for cd, shipping, whatever). Or maybe someone out their in viper land can zip it and send it to me via email...

    Is a ticket valid if cop forgets to make you sign it?

    Fight it. You have 50-50 chance that the cop will not show up to court, If he does not, case is dismissed. At least that is what happened to me and others I know.

    borla headers and 02 sensors?

    Are you getting codes 135 and 155? If so these are the codes for the front sensors. If you are getting codes for the rears, you can get O2 sims as well from summit racing that will plug right in. Or you can drill them out. Be carefull though because if you go to far you ruin them.

    Launching on street tires

    My 2000 GTS has pilot tires. The car is lowered as well. It also has a paxton SC and a bunch of other goodies. So here's a dumb ?. How does one launch one of these cars on the street. There is no way I can dump the clutch-that's a given. So I feather it and off I go. But when I hit second at...
