That thing just needs a TVS

So it was a sad day yesterday. Went to tune my car and my wideband was acting up and not reading right at all. After like 5k the gauge would just spike right lean. It has been acting up on me lately. Sooo I called a million places to find one. The only place that had was piston ring and they wanted $175! One of our salesguys Mitch at work has a buddy that works at Mcnaught. Phoned him up and their cost was $120. Don't even know the guy and he hooked me up! Met up with him after work and he rolled up in an 09 white G8 GT. Lowered with black powdercoated new Camaro SS wheels and Corsa exhaust. Sooooo sexy! So I just finished swapping the O2 sensor out and I'm back in wideband action! Supposed to rain tomorrow so will probably be tuned on Wednesday. Can't wait!

 

Oh thats sick. and really not a bad price for a local wideband sensor

Save your old one however, should have warranty on that bad boy

 

I could have got one for $100 online so for another $20 to have it now I have no problem with. Nah my wideband is 2 years old. No warranty

 

well fuuuck you

Dustin can you slap tires on at your shop?

 

Ya we can. But it's a bit different because it's meant for motorcycle tires and there only one guy here (Mitch in sales) that's good at doing car tires

 

oh okay. ill take my car somewhere else then.

 

I thought you were going to Costco?

 

Costco? when did i ever say that lol

 

Okay so this is what im going to do this weekend to try to fix that boost problem

- Check all clamps to make sure i don't have a leak anywhere

- Clean maf

- Change spark plugs

- If that does not work, Seafoam

 

You should seafoam then do plugs. You should foam either way imo

 

did you do it yet?

 

March 30th at 2:34PM lol

 

I see lots of people saying do an oil change and spark plug change right after.

 

As if you looked that far back.

I was kidding about it, Hence the mennonites dream joke haha

I typically always take my stuff to keystone ford, they do a great job.

 

Okay so i should seafoam then change the plugs and oil change/maf clean?

 

You don't really have to change the plugs. But the oil should be done after you do it.

 

how many kms on your stock plugs jordan, I changed mine at 50000. If your around there you might as well. People keep their old shitty plugs and use them to seafoam, then change back to the clean plugs after

 

Personally, I'm just going to change the oil afterwards.

 

My oil change is due.

I have 22,000 miles on the car. So 30k ish

 

I wish I had that kind of k

 

don't ever drive you car and you would haha

 

Truth

 

Mmmm muscle relaxants.....

 

bought some spare headlights today so Ive finally got everything for retro project. I'm going to use my gloss black housings with flat black shrouds and flat black main reflectors. I'm going to leave the turn signal reflectors chrome. Going to wire halos in with 5k fogs and use both as drl's. post up pics when as I go

 

Nice! Can't wait to see em!
