Re: engine replacement problems (U0100 code)

All Fuses are good. First thing I checked. Steve Walker got me the pin outs for the ecm over Facebook last night. Going to start with that to see if power is getting to the ecm. If it is, then I'll power it up outside the car and hook up to it.

Re: Tsp stage 1 cam ls2 ls3

TSP claims this is the smallest cam they have. How was it on the stock converter? I have this same cam installed in mine. It does just fine with the stock converter, but idle did need bumped up a bit. Also sometimes stalls in when you put it into reverse, but that is rare. The cam, with solo axle b...

Full exhaust questions

Hello, I'm going to be pulling my motor out of my car soon, and thought what better time to put headers on the car. I know I'm going with 1 7/8 kooks ss headers, and I already have the solo axle back, but what about the mid pipe? Suggestions on what would be best to use (brand, from what car, etc)? ...

Re: airbag sensor location

i am trying to track down someone who has a good enough code reader. contacted the dealer, and they want $110 to just plug into my car. Pretty sure it has to do with a loos connection and it being wet out. drove all day today without the light coming on once.

Yesterday, was driving my 2012, and in the 20 minute drive, my airbag fault warning came on and off about 15 times. It was also raining, and it had done it a week ago to, when it was wet out. Im thinking maybe i have a loose connection on one of the sensors, as on the drive home last night, it didnt...

Was wondering if anyone was kinda local to the area and wouldnt mind taking a look at it for me to see if there is anything wrong with. The guy says it was...

Looking for a 11-13 caprice

Hello all, I'm looking for a 2011-13 caprice. I recently wrecked mine, and I want another. Trying to keep it under 10k. My drive train is still good, so If it has a bad motor, bad tranny, high miles, or something wrong with it that isn't major damage, I'm interested. It can also have nothing wrong w...
