agh that one is a pain in the but, i managed to get mine with a 6 sided deep socket, got lucky i guess. soak some liquid wrench on it for a while.

 

Havent checked yet. Pressure regulator could be bad if i check and its too much. Havent changed the fuel filter yet either since i know its gotta be done and the fuel lines will break when i do it.

 

o2 sensors are a pain to get out. it might help to let the car warm up so that the metal in the manifolds expands if they are rusted in.

Its changed. Threads were ripped out but had a thread chaser to make them again. Was black and covered in crap. Engine light is on now.

 

:c dang, im scared to use sea foam on mine but I've had certain people tell me that nothing will happen what should I do?

 

not after you put in new 02s. you will need to clean them afterwards if you do foam it. better have it scanned for trouble codes. its probably a rich code now that the 02 is giving good numbers. at least should be. it will take a couple run times to adjust. maybe unhook the battery, both cables and while they are not hooked to the battery hold the positive and negative cables together and hold for a minute or two. this should clear you main computer and any other sensors or modules that have memory. if you want to know what the code is you will want to have it scanned first.
if you have a stereo that has a capacitor make sure to unhook beforehand.

 

Went to the autozone i work at and tried to use the code scanner we have behind the counter for store use and it wouldnt work. I cant run the seafoam with the new o2 sensors? never hurt my cars before when i did it after changing them. Also dont have a stereo in the car at all. Never changed it out of my sunbird after the head gasket went. Owner of this camaro before i got it cut the stereo wiring so i had to get the harness out of a junked car. Took 3 tries to find the right one.

 

The code reader you have at work is going to be for '96 and up only. You need a code scanner and yes, there is a difference.

Running SeaFoam after replacing the O2s defeats the purpose of replacing them first. You're going to be blowing a lot of nasty stuff out the exhaust (assuming you are sucking through a vacuum line) and it's just gonna crud up the O2s.

Try some Berryman B12 Chemtool in the tank next time you fill up. One can will hold you over for some time because it's strong stuff, but does a very good job. And yes, it's safe. I used it in both the Jeep and Camaro with no problems.

Get rid of anything extra in the car. Weight adds up and eventually kills mpg.

 

If u r not worried about getting stranded with a flat take the spare tire and jack out...probably good for close to 1-2 mpg increase. At least that's what I have seen with mine.
