Go and have the dealer look at it --- at minimum you've
identified a
potential problem while under warranty.
Also get an
extended warranty!! You should be able to get at least
a four year 48K mile
warranty. May be a bit pricey --1200 to 2000
but IMHO probably worth
it.

Team3S: very strange!!!!!!!
Hello all,
I have a small
question, I was driving my NA yesterday about 90 mph
in 5th gear and it just
died. I left it in gear and pulled over to the
side of the road. I then put
it in nuetral and proceeded to start it.
It cranked over fine, but wouldn't
start. It sounded like it wasn't
getting any gas. I thought the fuel pump
went out because I had been
having problems with the fuel system. I tried to
start it a couple more
times, about the 4th time I tried it, it just locked
up. I was
frustrated last night so I towed it home but havn't looked at it
yet. I
was wondering if anyone has experienced anything like this and if
they
could give me any advice before I start the long trial and
error
process.
Thanks,
Dustin

Call HKS at 562-494-8068
they will send/fax you instructions for the EVC IV.
Basically it has a high
and low boost setting and it learns through 3rd gear
wide open runs. We have
one on our car and sell them all. The HKS is the
best boost control on the
market. Keep your settings at 1.00 or lower to

Subject:
Team3S: Compresion Check
Well I did a compression
check on my car yesterday. The reason for
doing it was when I had my
car strapped to the dyno in Zurich, I was
getting a lot of oil blowing out of
the oil dipstick after teh operator
let off the gas. Which translates to
pressure building up in the crank
case. This was the same symptoms that
Roger had before he found that
some of his piston rings were cracked.
For the test I did not follow
the procedure in the service manual, in that I
did not put the plenum or
the throttle body on for the test. I had both
removed and disconnected
the crank position sensor. I also removed all
plugs and covered the
holes with clean cloths to check for oil in the
cylinders. I tested
each cylinder twice. The car has 25k
miles. I am getting a LITTLE oil
in the rear turbo intake piping, but
none in the front side. I think
this is pretty normal
though.
I was really surprised that all cylinders were
between 136 and 139
psi. (normal is 156 psi, minimum is 115 psi with a
deviation of 14
psi). There was no oil coming out of any
cylinders. So did I do the
test right? I would not think that
having the plenum completely removed
would affect the results, but what do
you think?
While I was putting everything back together I
was thinking about
reasons why I could be getting the build up (besides a
stuck PCV valve)
When we did a compression check of Jim's car in Zurich, I
think we were
getting readings around 125 psi (he has a lot more miles on his
car than
mine). So I was thinking that maybe the higher cylinder
pressures in my
car were causing some type of blowback. Then I realized
that if Jim's
had lower pressure, then he should be having the problem not
me.
So then I started thinking about the turbos. If
we increase the
boost from a stock of 6-9 psi to 14 psi, then is it possible
that we are
putting a strain on the piston rings? After all at least
three people
on this list have had broken piston rings. And I know many
people have
complained about their oil filler caps leaking. Maybe they
are not
leaking, maybe it is just a build up in crank case
pressure.
So is it safe to assume that my car is in good
shape? I did not do
a leak down test, but I am not sure this would tell
me anything in this
case anyway.
Thanks,
Mike

Team3S: Powder Coating
This weekend while I had the
plenum off I finally got to try out the
new powder coating system I bought
from Eastwood Company a couple of
months ago. I originally bought the
kit for the restoration of an older
car I have, but I thought I would try it
out on some things in the
Stealth that are uncoated. Let me say that I
think this system is
great. Buy doing both the plenum and the rear
rocker cover I think I
paid for the system in what it would of cost me to
have this done by a
professional service. The only problem with it is
that it requires an
oven to bake the part in at 400 deg F. And it
cannot be an oven you
will be using for cooking food. Also, you really
need to
sandblast/glassbead the part beforehand. However, as long as
the part
is free of corrosion, it is fine. Also, the part must be made
of a
conductive metal.
you can check out the system at www.eastwoodco.com

"Before"
I put in my BC, the oil filter cap would get a bit of leakage/oil vapour
around
it, so I assume this is normal and nothing to be worried about with
average to agressive
acceleration. I'd say you worry as much as me (too much)
, and that what is occurring
here is really much ado about nothing,
except normal high crankcase pressure with these
vehicles. As Chris W.
recently implied (private humorous communication), if you shift at
or before
3500rpm, you can avoid these problems. :-)

If
money is a big issue, then get it done custom for a non-turbo. Get
them to
run a 3" pipe from the converter (leave this on) and then Y- it
out near the
gas tank to 2 1/2 inch pipes, and ansa or other baffled
tips on the end. Cost
me 250 bucks with removal of old and installation
of new, and it took less
than a day. It will sound good on your Na if
you have the DOHC

Check the fuel filter....under the battery on the firewall. I had the same
thing
happen to me in my RX-7 one time.....fuel filter was totally
blocked. That's probably
the cheapest place to start.

Subject: Team3S:
Relative difficulty of ABS retrofit
When I purchased my car, I believe
that the dealer told my insurance
company that my '93 ES had ABS. I
never changed my braking technique,
but in hindsight I don't recall ever
sensing that the ABS was doing
anything. Recently, I noticed that there was
no fuse in the ABS fuse
block and have concluded that there is no ABS.
It is lucky that there
have been no incidents while my wife was driving my
car since I
instructed her in the use of ABS: push as hard as you can and let
the
ABS do its thing.
How difficult would it be to retrofit ABS on my
car. I have 65K on my
car and figure that I probably need front pads;
haven't checked, but
haven't heard chirpers either. Question here is
what would you guys
suggest as the best pads for a daily driver that is never
raced (I've
only had it over 140 twice), never had a warped rotor that I
noticed and
intend on keeping stock rotors??
Thanks and
regards,
Lynn

Same thing happened on my TT a short time after I
installed my FIPK.
Downshifted to third and punched it to pass one day and
it died.
Coasted to a stop and could crank the motor but it wouldn't
fire. Like
it wasn't getting any spark or gas...
Seems that
because I didn't disconnect the battery during installation,
the ECU never
reset itself and the extra airflow caused the MAF to blow
an ECU fuse and
shut 'er down. VERY insidious problem to diagnose.
First, check the
fuses in the main fuse box in the engine compartment.
If you find one that
is blown, FIRST remove the battery cables, then
disconnect the MAF harness,
then replace the fuse, then replace the
battery cables, then reconnect the
MAF harness. If you ignore the
battery and MAF and just replace the
fuse, the new fuse(s) will keep
blowing.
Anyway, I hope that's all it
is in your case and that this saves you the
trouble and expense of having the
car towed to the dealer for them to
figure out (cost me $200 and a great deal
of stress!). Good luck!!

Re: Team3S: Compresion Check
Mike,
Long time no see! Your spring

morning for another week TDY,
after which I'm looking at 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 +
4 week trips with little time
between! Ug...
REALLY glad to hear that your compression check didn't
indicate a
disaster. I will be interested to see what responses you get
on the
list, since there has to be an explanation for that temperature
probe
being pushed out of your dipstick hole. You're right that my
readings
were in the 125 range, which, if our tests were the same, means that
I
should have higher crankcase pressures than you. BTW, I've been
running
1.00 bar of boost for as many miles as you have on your engine!
Is it
possible your oil level was too high and the crank was beating up
the
oil, somehow raising the pressure? Are you still seeing
pressure? I
just can't imagine what's happening here.
Can't wait to

Purchase Suggestions
Kinda' off topic, but I hope you'll indulge
me...
My brother is considering purchasing a 95 Eclipse (Turbo, FWD) as a
daily
driver. If any of you are willing to answer some questions about
these
cars, please e-mail me privately. Thanks.

=============================
Chris...
Removing your cat will
decrease back pressure, as will adding a larger
diameter exhaust. In the case
of the NA engines, this will result in lower
torque, lower hp at the lower
rpm range, with some hp gain at higher rpms.
If you're looking for better
sound, change the mufflers. If you're looking
for more power on a NA engine,
add nitrous.
Looking forward...Chris
P.S...turn on your spell
check feature.
