Keeping your foot out of it is SO hard...trust me, I understand.

Sorry Jacobnev, The only reason that I knew the ratio is because it was on the window sticker that listed it as on option. otherwise, I would have not known.

Ok so when I ran a system check today, I got a ton of CEL's (not to my surprise, the smog pump is disconnected).

A few of them ARE concerning, however.

O—Key On, Engine Off code.
CM—Continuous Memory code.
R—Engine Running code.

34 - EGR Valve Position/Pressure Feedback EGR Voltage Above Closed Limit (O,R), PFE or EVP circuit has intermittently failed above the closed limit of 0.67 volts (CM).
44 - Secondary Air System Inoperative. bank one, passenger side.
33 - EGR Valve Opening Not Detected (CM,R).
93 - Converter Clutch Solenoid Circuit Failure (O) (this is the one that concerns me).

90 - All cylinders passed Cylinder Balance Test (Yay!).


So what's up with the converter clutch solenoid? I tried to do some of my own research but I can't find anything!

So I got the rear end put in a couple days ago, along with my rear shocks and upper/lower control arms (rear) and holy ****!!! This car woke up!!! I also inconsequentially solved the braking problem. When my buddy and I went to bleed the brakes this thick, green goop came out of the lines (algae? Idk the car sat for a long time). After that, my brakes will lock up at low speeds if I stomp on the pedal, which it would T do before. I'm happier than ever! Things I'll be doing later this month/early next month.

Subframe connectors.
P/S pump and smog pump replacement.
Koni adjustable front shocks.
Replace speedometer cable.
Replace speedometer gear.
Transmission fluid and filter change.
Oil fluid and filter change.
Install rims (look brand new with no noticeable curb rash).

Fun times! See if you can find a GT40 upper and lower intake and some used AFR or Trick Flow heads adig another 1000rpm of usable power up top does wonders. After years of hating the boxy Foxes, I kind of have a small urge to pick one up, esp. an ex-CHP pursuit car. LX notchback, manual windows, A/C delete. Exactly how it should be! Those Konis are a good setup on Foxes, and I like the chassis-strengthening mods. Foxes need it.

What kind of wheels did you get?

I have a larger mass air meter in my garage from my build 15 years ago I'd sell you
I remember it's for the stock 19 lb injectors
I think it's a C&L but I'd have to check it

I ended up getting some Alloy ponies, they look nice, pics to follow. My buddy that sold my the rear end and stuff has an EX-CHP car, it turns out, it's my best friends grandfathers old police car! Hahaha.

Please do, if it's a 70mm it would be great because I'll be getting a 70mm TB soon.
