      So, is it the dad or the daughter posting? The grammar is phenomenal for a person of the younger generation.

      anyways.

      was the air leak found? im wondering if they put the bottom of the throttle body back together and attached all the lines.

      check the under side of the intake, see if the oil return pipe has slid down or not sealing. also check the intake, make sure the TPS is plugged in. check the vacuum hose next to it, also.
      lastly the injector harness. c101 plug. it's keyed to the metal rail it sits in, plug goes through, then a tiny lock ring then the bottom plug. - i missed this on my first rebuild.
      Much wow

        Wait a minute, you're saying the car has its own r3v account ?




        Mind Blown.

            I am pretty sure we plugged everything in including that port on the bottom of the throttle body. We used a peice of 8mm fuel hose to connect as discussed earlier cause that peice isnt made anymore.

            My dad has been talking with blunt and thinks there is a leak on the intake boot. I know the one we have is torn where the hose clamp connects to the airbox.

            we have ordered a new boot and a new fuel pump. My dad changed the fuel filter last night and it didnt change the whining sound.

                Yeah my dad gave him the build date number so I am sure blunt will get it right.

                    this is awesome, with 3 daughters I hope E30s are still affordable by the time they start driving.

                        Hell yes! The ole starter whack trick works again.

                        And on the fuel pump, you can retrofit a much less expensive one in there. I'm not sure which one, but there are threads on it here somewhere.

                          Chevy Nova. Like $40 from Advance. Search in the E30 technical part of r3v. It's really simple to figure out.

                              Tell your dad to bring it up to Octoberfest. You can meet the NC crew. Maybe even the next CNC?
