Hey just take your electricity thing you have in your tv room and zap all of them!
Well if they can really do it in one week its amazing. Sheesh its taken me almost 3 months
So today, Sunday, I did......................nothing, well almost. I started out today with a side job. I removed a friends supercharged engine for him and set a new "BigMike World Record" of 1 hour 50 mins, breaking my previous MR2 engine removal record of 2 hrs 25 mins. I was smokingly fast. And he had the Intercooler, AC and the factory Oil cooler still intact, things I didnt have to deal with on my previous record time.
Then I took a nice long lunch with my girlfriend and my buddy who has an '86 Turbo 4WD on 33s. Then I went to back to the shop, cleaned up my mess, did a little bit of work which included replacing some hose clamps that were leaking, and then I drove it around a bit with the Air temp sensor installed, but the upper-range power "flat spot" is still present. Im now blaming it 100% on the speed sensor, although I still want to replace my air flow sensor with a new one.
Also my crummy cooling fan isnt really cutting the cheese with the cooling issue. Well it actually does work ok, but it doesnt have a shroud and its only like 12" or so, its pretty small and only covers about 60% of the radiator. Actually when I get the truck moving, the temp drops to about 1/4 gauge, then at an idle it'll slowly creep back up to about 1/3 gauge, and then after a long time of idling it will hit about half gauge and trigger the fan. I gotta be thinking about long hours of Crawling very slowly on the trail with dust and very little air flow, so I want a better fan and I know I can find one. So I took some width/height measurements and tomorrow morning before classes I am heading out to the wrecking yards to find a better low profile fan that utilizes a shroud. Then I'll switch out the fans tomorrow night and also get the darn speed sensor wired in hopefully..
So that's it, no pics sorry!
