So a little background of the situation is that we took my car to a little bit of a shady guy to look at a blown head gasket. Long story short we ended up replacing the engine and after 3 weeks it was sorta done. I got my car back on the 18th of may 2017 at midnight. He said an O2 sensor wasnt...

Hey guys, So just the other day I was driving home from work and everything was running fine with the exception of a few hiccups (engine bogging). The next morning when I tried to start it, it had a hard time turning over (I had to give it some gas). Once started, the idle was all over the...

So friday after work I drove my car home ~10 miles and my car started acting funny after the first mile or so. The Intake and exhaust seemed to be louder and my car was acting like it was in limp mode and would not go over 5000 rpm. It was acting like there was a rev limiter put on it. No CEL...

Hello everyone. Recently I've noticed that at idle, for more then a couple of moments, my air conditioning will start blowing warm. I figured it was a little odd, so I looked at my temperature gauge and it was 3/4's of the way towards hot. But when I drive for not even ten seconds, the gauge...

So I've had my 06 Tib for about 3 years and since I've got it, when I idle at stop lights and what not, the car makes a funny humming sound and vibration. Never thought anything about it because I thought it was because the AC was running.(when you turn the AC off it quits) Anyway in the past...

My tiburon has been running weird. At some times the car jerks jumps a bit. I thought it was a misfire at first. I changed the spark plugs and its still doing it. It needed a new o2 sensor still doing it. Car has 84000 miles on it and its manual. I took it to my advance auto part store and they...

4cyl 5 spd Spec clutch, Fidanza Flywheel, cheap headers, no catalytic converter and no 2nd o2 sensor Been driving like this for about a year now and never really had much of a problem. Just drove about 1000 miles from Colorado to Illinois with no problems. While i was driving and had the...

I drove in the rain for a few hours, without that nice wheel-well spash-shield protecting my cai... The engine bogged a few times, and when I parked it water ran out. Not like it dripped a little bit, it ran out forming a 16" puddle in my garage. I had about a cup of water in my catch cans, so...

so i finished my cam install and everything is put back together, no problems with the cams. but i have a problem with what i think could be the tps. so, when i cold start the car it starts right up and idles fine for a few minutes. then after that things get annoying. when i put the car in...

I have a supercharged tib with a problem i havent been able to get rid of for a long time. My boost gauge gives me a reading of 17" at idle when it of course should be around 20" or so. I have checked for all leaks and found nothing. I have blown propane around different vacuum lines and ports...

Hey guys, i'm mostly finished with my turbo build and started it up for the first time last week. After having lots of problems when trying to manipulate my tune to compensate for 290s in the primary injectors, i gave up on that and threw the 190s back in. For the most part, the engine runs...

I have an 03 supercharged tib, runnin around 3-4 pounds. Just yesterday, after replacing my MAF sensor (my old one was defective) The car has been running rough. the idle is rough. My boost gauge reads 14 inches of mercury at idle. is that too low of a reading? because ive read it should be down...
