The O2 sensor is definately what provides that information, and the equipment Jeff mentioned (datamaster and cheap laptop - I hear even 386 and 486 machines can work) is what will extract that info via the ALDL connector under the dash. It will also provide you with extensive graphs and data...

It is the generic term for an interface to your cars computer. It is able to pull trouble codes related to "check engine soon" lights, and more importantly it allows you to monitor the sensors and engine computer operation. It comes in many forms from the Tech tool that the service manual and GM...

Does the PTE51 take much modification, or is it close to stock size and hardware locations? What are good sources for this unit (in Denver area) and what would one expect to pay? Thanks Sean

Your a moron because you disrespect other people who also take pride in their GMs. Why don't you ask around and see how many sub-10 machine have original 7.5" rears. It is the RARE exception not the rule. Any MORON knows that's NOT the best rear to use on a race machine, but as long as it's...

First, I also agree that any machine that can pick up it's front end like in the 1st pic is indeed bad. Second, too bad the owner is such a moron. Heck he may have even got that kind of performance without spending really huge dollars. But, I can tell you one thing, there is hundreds of...

Way cool feedback, thanks to all! Just to be correct, you are refering to the Readme and not the FAQ right? Plugs, wires, cap, and rotor appear to have been part of a pre-sale tune-up. He does not have a piston stop, so the correct timing that he is observing may not be guarenteed. He will buy...

Very interesting Dave thanks! http://syty.net/new_faq.htm I did study the FAQ suggested by KGB and will repeat what I said. Flame me for be stupid, blind, or both, but at least point to ONE section in that FAQ that will get me closer to an answer. I think you may be thinking of the OLD...

Well, I have an AutoXray I use for the Z, but there are no constant or previously stored codes. Which engine parameters exactly would you like us to monitor? Knock detection? Ignition timing? Retard? I will ask him to check the number on the chip too. Thanks KGB, we'll help him get the bottom...

Hi Richard, Yes, it is from the stock guage, but the truck is definately not making the power they are known for. In fact, he says it is a little slower that his 1996 V8 Grand Cherokee(like 8-9 secs to 60). We all know that aint right :smile: How would he identify the chip you are inquirering...

Well, the new FAQ appears a little incomplete as it relates to my question, and I also scrounged the old site for more. I'll keep diging. Yes, I could be missing something obvious. If so, flame me briefly, and then kindly direct me too it :0 This vehicle was sold as both relatively low milage...

I am close to a guy who bought a sub-50k mile Syclone who wished he had your buyers guide before he bought. But also got it as a "project" so no biggie. Anyway, it don't boost up past the first graduation ever at WOT. I told him to inspect closely for leaks in the turbo plumbing on both sides...
