This cover: IMC 103 23006 066 Oil Pump | eBayFrom lots and lots of searching, for someone who has ecmlink is using a G4CS block with a 1g head in a 2g...This seems to be the right front case / oil pump. Still need 1g everything at that point, like oil pan, oil filter housing etc, but...

Okay, So I've got this 97 Camry project all back together and i've got a clunk when shifting from D to R and from R to D. Also, when I shift D to R to P, it grinds going into park.Looking for what the issue could be here. The torque converter and a little of the transmission was apart...

alright guys. Maybe you can bail me out of this one.I rebuilt a toyota camry motor which i had some questions in another thread. Got the transmission bolted on, installed everything, and the engine wouldn't crank.It was having an issue with the alarm, but then as my buddy was trying to...

Hey guys,Im good for now on DSM's, i got my talon running and my buddy just picked up a 91nt eclipse.the toyota guys are very non-responsive on this one, so here's the challenge:I have a dilema. My friend toasted a connecting rod and crank journal in her 97 camry (5sfe 4 cyl)...

well heres the scoop:I have been noticing a solid clunk in the steering/suspension which i believe is comming from the front right side. (98 tsi awd). Upon inspection, there are little bits of grease on the hub etc around the CV joint, so i thought it was that. well, after pulling the wheel...

so. maybe this was a bad thing to have done but i did it at the tire tech's advice and it was before i knew anything about cars really.i have a set of 17x7 adr wheels (that i don't even remember what model) that are wrapped in 235/45/17 dayton daytona tires (yeah i know). they were on my 96...

Like the topic says, Im building a 2.4L g4cs 6 bolt. Im trying to decide on pistons and rods.I was pretty sure I was going to do a weisco/eagle combination, but a local guy tells me JE has redesigned their pistons and they are now superior to the weiscos and don't have the whole mess with...

pulled a g4cs out of a 90 sonata from the junkyard but the cylinder walls have some really stubborn crud on them (probably a mix of oil. carbon and rust) that wont come off. Its not just surface crud really, its kinda built up and i wanna get it cleaned out before i disassemble it (really don't...

well, i need to get my knock sensor off and Im not going to be getting a new one (at least not yet) so I need to know what size socket to cut a slot in to make it into an "o2 socket" for my knock sensor.Someone has to know what size socket to use and theres only one thread on it and noone...

Alright, Its time for me to ask a big fat noob questions. (which makes me feel really stupid)I have been working on my car for a long time, and have pulled the engine and changed the sway bars etc etc etc.but heres my question:how are you guys jacking up and working on your cars...

Can someone with the mitah adapter (the head unit-amp adapter with 4 rcas and a turn on lead check which pins go to what on the other end. Im going to be wiring a laptop to the amp so ordering the actual adapter just to end up cutting it seems stupid.there used to be an amp pin diagram but...

2G removal of front axlesThe factory service manual is nice to have to reference Bolt torques and such but I have linked to the section that relates to this (page 11)This install was performed on a 1998 Talon TSi AWD. I believe the GST/TSI is the same but doesn't have the carrier bearing...

mods, feel free to move this or delete.I put together a little axle vfaq for 2g awds and its on dsmtalk, but not here.http://sdcc21.ucsd.edu/~daleitne/files/axlevfaq/axleremoval.html

okay, so i was putting the tranny back on the engine today before we throw it back in the car. I found a ziploc bag labeled "tranny gasket" with two small (10mm head) gold bolts in it. I have absolutely no idea where they go. the little piece on the bottom between the engine and trans has its...

im trying to get the pump cover crap off but there is that damn screw there. Its totally stripped (pretty much to a square on one turn). how did you guys get this thing out? reverse threaded screw extractor? what?thanks

Im doing the BS removal while im doing my timing belt. the engine is out of the car, but i was dumb and cut the balance belt before i broke looks the sprocket bolt. I need to get the crankshaft sprocket and balance sprocket off and am trying to figure out the best way to do so. I could make...

how the heck can i get the o2 sensor off. I cant get any wrench to get it undone......i know you have to be able to get to the connector to put in a new one. i want to drop my entire exhaust and then take out the o2 sensor. How can i disconnect the connector side of the o2 sensor from the car...

I need someone to check a CEL for me or borrow a logger or code reader from someone. Can anyone help me out. i need to check this code before i pull my engine. thanks

I just installed my profec spec II. Not turning up the boost till i have a real boost gauge. The profec reads vacuum so i don't need that on my boost gauge. I was looking for an autometer that doesn't read vacuum but the only one I see is to 35 psi, which i don't need. fewer psi would mean...
