    The Factory serviced 2nd life.

    Forgot to upload the work I did on my cowl. I abraded the surface before self-etching it, on the inside away from the heat I put a few layers of rubber under coating to help with cabin noise. Then on the outside I went with high temp black and gold. The gold is where it is at for why you think...

    The Factory serviced 2nd life.

    Don't we all experience oil issues? I am from a school old enough that if the crank case isn't under slight vacuum most of the time, you are leaving efficiency on the table. If I can prevent oil from my pcv from going through my intake with a little welding and some tubing, why not? Plus, there...

    The Factory serviced 2nd life.

    Thanks for the support. I guess I will elaborate on my plans for the speed. I have enough parts to install and enough done now that I can make some entertaining posts now until I get supplied for bigger parts of the build. Suspension: For now, I am going to enjoy the last bit of life from this...

    The Factory serviced 2nd life.

    Okay so I have been buzzing around the forum for about half a year now. I work on my cars more than I post. Being as it is winter, and I need to recoup some funds after my MS6 wanted to see what I am made of so I will now start my build thread. My car came to me from its original owner, in...

    CEL b1317, and p2504.

    Thank you for the input and hope you come over to my build thread once I get it going. I have inspected the whole harness and I believe that I thought the harness is showing its age it is in working condition and being kept in Houston seemed to do it favors. I am planning on replacing the...

    CEL b1317, and p2504.

    Ok well I found the problem. Bad rectifier or module on the alternator. After removal during testing, it would test fine until a load was applied. The alternator would then try to lock up, bucking against the testing machine. I also found solder in the bottom of the alternator shroud and...

    CEL b1317, and p2504.

    Yes the battery and alternator both tested good according to the dealership that just checked it yesterday (Tuesday). I am thinking the brand new battery maybe toast now because the battery was spitting out the vents after the test drives, so I am taking the spare alternator I have and...

    CEL b1317, and p2504.

    This morning found my new battery dead so there is a drag on the car. I went and checked all the connections on the alternator and battery. Cleared the codes jumped it and drove it for 7 miles. Came back, turned it off, back on and pulled the same codes though the battery warning light did not...

    Sorry about that, little background just had the engine replaced and also replaced the accessories, PS,AC,ALT, Battery I figured why not start all the way fresh. Though the battery replacement came because the shop cracked my battery that was only 1 year old. Replaced it with R51.

    I am throwing codes on the generation side of my electrical system. I am overcharging when under load and throwing the b1317, and p2504. Other than that the 3" turbo back exhaust and everything has this car sounding fantastic.

    Second owner factory serviced

    I think I am going to keep this new engine mild for now. CS TB Exhaust, Intake, Radiator, new hoses, and once the engine is broken in a FMIC. I am currently looking for another MS6 to do as a project with my oldest.

    Second owner factory serviced

    I am glad too. I have been looking around the forum about certain things, I had not seen a lot of under kits and figured it had something to do with that, I had yet to find that area. Feels like Alexandria before the burning with all the information here. I am not afraid of maintenance or...

    Second owner factory serviced

    So, I recently acquired a single owner Houston kept car. I had it for all of 1200 miles before it spun a rod bearing because the shop, I had changed the oil only put in 4.5 quarts of 5w20. They bought me a remanufactured motor and are covering the install at my local dealership. I am parts...
