my cars a slug :S

[-jjM-]

since the engine iv have lil problems here and there, the usuall things ud expect i guess

latley thow, iv noticed, off the line, shes prity darn slow
this is cause of 2 reasons i think

its ethir the diff, cause not lsd, still the standard 3:25 for eb spacs, or i think theres something wrong wit my gear box

for ppl who dont know my car, its a 92 EB spac wit a NC sportsman XR6 engine chucked in there (the green rocker cover), according to john xr its done about 180

as well i got a wade came grind 1636 i can feel it kick in but it dose really really do its job, still really slugish, but as well, i think theres something else wrong and im really not sure

what should i check for here?

Get her on a dyno mate and you will find out what the problem is.

you can see on the power curve what the A/F rats are doing... This will indicate where the prob is, or narow it down at least.

Most Dyno joints will specialise in the testing and diagnosing of:

• Electronic fuel injection
• Carburettors
• Ignition systems
• Diesel systems
• Fuel systems
• LPG/Propane
• Engines and Engine systems
• Computer mapping
• Turbochargers and Superchargers
• Drive lines
• Manual and Automatic transmissions
• Speedometers
• Cooling systems
• Vibrations
• Noises
• Routine road testing

If they check your power curve and find that there is a loss of power, they are very experienced and will be able (in most cases) to tell you where the problem is and how to fix it.

if its rattling and there is no power, its the cat mate. im gettin my car back today from the mechanics, i needed a new cat and exhaust to pass epa. the cat was $220 for a high flow. dont know the brand yet. and that is just supplied, cos i dont pay labor from the bloke that looks after me.

hmmm ok, ill probly look into gettin a new cat, each time i turn on the car, it just goes buerk, prity oud rattle. when i pop her into drive it goes away

is this because the cat is clogged up or something, or al the stuff inside is just like dead

as well, is it worth the high flow cat?

[DUMTEF]

the stuff on the inside is knackered, it reckon its your cat, mine was rattling as well i thought it was something major on my motor ended up being cat got a hiflow one then it was a new car

[-jjM-]

ok just to keep u all informed, it was the cat, an boy was it the cat

swaped it over wit another one, banged the stuffed one on the ground and it all just fell out, every time i shook it sounded like a moracco :S

iv got my speed back and my kick back, i can get it side ways again lol

all fixed ;)
