pretty much since last sunday ive realized just how down the drain this runner is going. both from wheels are fucked up. the pass rim is basically flat all the way around, to the bead is just chilling not really locked in place. the driver rim has a pretty good dent in it pushing the bead back, and is bent pretty good. the shackle nuts are fucked and wont stay tight no matter what. motor is a whole new story. last night i went to lil buddys house to re-time it since it was retarded. we realized that when i swapped the ECU it retarded it soon realized when we pulled the timing light out that the rotor needed to go back one tooth. so we did that today and it was far far advanced off one tooth. so we went back the other way just for shits and it was really retarded again. so we went back to the way advanced and messed with the idle a little bit and one more try and it was TITS. sounded amazing, idled like a brand new motor. so we hope in to take it for a spin and it was a DOG. couldnt make it around the corner, and almost didnt make it back to the front of his house after going around the block. pulled the timing light again and it was idled perfect. so it was a WTF moment. got on the gas to see what happened, and the dot went back to about a -50 or so if there was one. let off, back to 5 (the ECU wasnt tripped). so the gas was on again and went way back to -50 and then jumped to +12... so chris is 63 33/64ths sure that its the TPS. so tomorrow im gong to swap that out and see what it does. any ideas on what else it could be other then TPS?
