i had mixed up the ring that goes on the injector wires to engine harness. the ring goes on after the plug goes in... doh

Ah, yes. That ring can be a royal pain to take off on some cars. I know it well. :rofl:
So it wasn't injecting in all cylinders, eh? Makes sense.

ya the bad resistance was causing all the issues there. still have a murmur in the idle. but more power at 3000revs.

Kalim, get those bearings done?

[cyberkaa]

Yup. Nate and I removed the parking brake and that made the hub extraction a whole lot easier. Not too many other problems besides the inner race on the right side staying with the hub and we couldn't find any place with a bearing splitter that was open at 7:30pm on a Sunday, lol. So Nate decided to use vise grips and it worked. You should have seen it man! Finally finished up around 10pm.

[Cabriolet]

ouch, that sucks.

[cyberkaa]

In retrospect, it wasn't horrible once we knew the tricks. The second side went much faster than the first with the exception of the inner race and even that would be much easier with a bearing splitter.
I'm just really glad the axles come out without any trouble.

hey guys, anyone have a stock shifter, sheet metal console and selector rod sitting around?

[cyberkaa]

Probably have a stock shift lever. Don't have the other parts.

[Cabriolet]
