The #6 and #2 injectors weren't pulsing like the others and the engine had a slight miss so I had a friend clean the injectors. We hooked it up and everything and as soon as we go to crank the engine so it'll clean the injectors, the cleaning canister is empty. I dont know how it drains so fast. We disconnected the fuel feed and return lines, disconnected the fuel pump connecter at the rear diff, hooked the fuel injector cleaner (OTC Part # 7448) to the schrader valve, and as soon as we cranked the engine to get it to run off the gas/cleaner mixture, the canister was empty. We dont know how it drains so quickly..in a matter of seconds! We tried it 3 times and got the same result everytime! Any suggestions as to what could cause it? Could one of the injectors be COMPLETELY stuck open and the fuel just goes right through it with no pulse? ]]> Engine and Transmission hinton08 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970637 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970586&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Nov 2009 03:53:17 GMT I have a 1998 3.8 camaro. is there any way that the Z28 gauge cluster would work in a v6? or atleast the speedometer could be tuned to fit a 155mph speedometer overlay? Is it possible to get the computer tuned to the right speed pulses to make this work?

It is an automatic transmission. You can put the shifter into park but it stays in reverse. And you can shut it off in park also. The way we keep it from moving is to have the E-Brake pulled up when it's off. Any ideas what's wrong? ]]> Engine and Transmission cobraprince http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970025 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=969089&goto=newpost Thu, 29 Oct 2009 02:49:49 GMT Okay, heres the deal, I have a 74' camaro that is my daily driver, on my way to class, it was running fine until I came to a red light, upon stopping, the car started chugging and was about to diesel out, quickly I put it into neutral and kept it alive.

So, Got it home and the carb appeared to be leaking gas and smoke coming from the primaries. I'm not very tech savy with this carb, but i do know its been rebuilt numerous times.

Well, I had made a thread asking you guys what would be the best cams for my firebird v6 3.8. You gave good ideas on what to go for, but I was thinking.... do I really want to spend that kinda cash? Then I said to myself why not get a hypertech max energy, that's the newest from hypertech (I think) it will run me 380 to get it and according to hypertech and extra 14 to 20 hp. So my question again to you guys is....... should I still go with the cams or get the hypertech and maybe have extra cash for some other add ons. ]]> Engine and Transmission izzydjinn http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=968551
