Central MA. Been out the game for a while though.

Hell, sorry guys: 1990 Beretta base w/V6 3-spd Auto, tilt and cruise I already posted this on BStuff: http://www.bstuff.com/index.php?showtopic=45862 I have the steering column, but what I need is the metal piece that is pushed/pulled by the ignition cylinder. It runs along the column, and can be wo...

Let me chime in, as last year's BFest was my first... It is NOT an auto show. It is not HIN or any of that ****. The objective is not to show off your latest mods and get a prize. The way I see it BNet and BStuff are communities for people who despite all logic and reason choose to own, modify, or s...

(sigh)

I think the cancellation of BFest NE was the nail in the coffin for all NE meets. Like, why bother?

No, no leaks of any kind. Or if there are leaks, they evaporate super fast, because there's never anything under the car.

Figured I'd post the latest nooz. I cleaned out the throttlebody, and inmediately afterwards the car ran like a CHAMP, no stalling, no rough idle, no RPM swings. I figured I was done. I was wrong. Only a few hours later it was up to its old tricks. Haven't done anything since except get where I have...

I already got the TCC; it was right under the AIR BOX as you emphasized. I'd like a CAI; sometime in the future when I don't have better things to throw money at.
How would I identify the ground cables?

Seems like my engine is a transplant from another GM vehicle (Grand Prix perhaps). One of the previous owner's receipts lists an engine rebuild. Guess they just swapped it instead. That sucker's gonna stay plugged.

The first picture shows the loose end of the line in the second picture (it's sitting right next to the IAC). Second picture shows where that line normally connects to the intake, after we plugged it with that short rubber thing. You're looking at the driver's side front; evaporation canister is on ...

Alright, so tonight my cousin pulled out all the tools and went over this sucka. Checked the sparkplug wires, had spark in all of them so it's not a misfire issue. I'll sacrifice some dollars and get new sparkplugs tomorrow, just in case. Again, we went over the hoses and sprayed some brake cleaner ...

Yeah, it's like a mini maraca. I've got a similar thread going on BStuff; been posting the latest news there: http://www.bstuff.com/index.php?showtopic=28224

Feel free to opine.

Thanks.

1990 3.1L, 119k So lately I've been having vacuum problems...I got codes 33 and 35 (IAC and MAP). I changed those, but in so doing I found the need to replace the EGR valve gasket (definitely a cause for low vacuum - the car had TWO of them on, both in piss poor shape). I replaced that, and the car ...

I had my fun at B'05, but unless I do some major engine upgrades (which I don't plan to do - maintenance is the goal) there's no reason to run the 1/4 each time. Heck, it'll leave more time for local activities.

The only meets I'd be able to attend would have to be during the middle of the week, so that pretty much takes me out of everything worthwhile. Plus I'm still in financial recovery mode. $700 BFest + $475 transmission repairs = one sobering experience.

Hey hey hey! Tootin' your own horn is not allowed!
