Hey guys so long overdue update. i have been busy working on the car as I have had a lot of issues.

First up I got a new intake elbow. Went with a cast aluminum one that is a knock off of the trick flow. $40 to my door. Used the "nitrous port" to hook my fresh air line into for the opti:



Next, everyone here told me I should replace the clutch with the problems I was having so that was next. It was pretty knackered. :











Car still wasn't running right, so I borrowed my friends diagnostic machine. Lol we can add this to the list of scanners that work on a 94 but I doubt anyone is going to shell out for this thing. Pretty neat piece of hardware:





Right bank O2 was bad so I replaced both of them. The passenger side was such a PITA. Had to heat it up with a Oxy-Acetelyene torch and wrench on it over and over again. Finally wedged a piece of pipe in there and whailed on it with a 4lb dead blow and she broke free:





She is all happy now:



Took it out tonight and she drove like a dream. Lol seems like the car spends way to much time in the garage. Ive only put 200miles on her since ive had it. Oh well I guess that what you get when you buy a car from someone who abused it for 10 years.

 

sooo whats the scanner?

 

Its a Snap-on Verus. Retails for $9249 from the snap-on man

holy *********, that thing must be able to tell you at what mile marker you ran over a nail

 

Pretty much. It does everything. It will even tell you how to fix whatever is broken and all the common troubleshooting issues with specific vehicles. IMO not worth what they are charging for it. It is essentially a 11" windows tablet with some software. You could probably accomplish 80% of the same stuff with a laptop, aldl cable, and some data-master software, but that is specific to one vehicle.
