Hey guy's, need to replace air compressor under trunk of my SSE. Would it be better to find used air comp. or just replace rear struts with gas charged units?- Can you even find used air ride system that came on the 97SSE. Does anyone make struts you can air up yourself?

Hey friend's, mark here. Alternator is back to running 13.9 to 14.2 all the time again. Not sure why but happy for now Will clean cables good this weekend just to keep my old buddy happy. (car that is)

:hail: Hey all, thanks for chiming in. Changed pre-cat 02 sensor but not back one. No cat anymore due to plugging up. Can replace if necessary but car ran just as bad with cat on. Only sensors left to try are knock & cam position. CEL is posting a code for problem with cat only. Please keep chiming ...

Hey all, engine got tuned about 15k ago(plugs, wires). Only CEL I have is from no cat anymore. Always run 89 or better fuel. Had new crank sensor installed due to going bad. New MAP, TPS seem to help the most when changed. Seems like it tries to load up with fuel if I start & stop alot when engine ...

Hey guy's, finally got car running somewhat like it should. Replaced TPS and car likes to do 75mph again. I've noticed a small pop in the exaust when I start engine. Nothing major but seem's like maybe a timing issue. Please chime in if anyone can help. Cant wait to have car back 100%.

Hey gonzo. Alternator seem's to be doing better. Run's around 13.4 in day time & 13.7 at night. Used to run 14.3 all the time but I think battery had issues.

Replaced the battery in my car with a smaller one that was on sale(625CCA from 800CCA). Alternator used to put out 14v, now it show's about 13.1v. Is this normal for a smaller battery or is it time to look at new alternator? Broke the post on the old battery.

No new tranny when I made the swap. Got a gut feeling I might need a case learn. Will call around for best price.

If my PCM does need a case learn, how do I do this?

Tried the spare I have, no change. Unplugged the TPS but tranny quit shifting so plugged back in. Will try spare TPS to see if that helps. When engine was changed out, dealer didn't mess with PCM wonder if maybe they should have.

:helpsmilie: Hey guy's help me get this car fixed. Ever sense replacing engine earlier this year, it has run sluggish above 50mph. Below 50 you cant ask for a better running car. Only CEL it has is from not having cat anymore, but it ran the same way then also. It's been tuned up, ICM changed, new ...

Hey guy's, thanks for the help. Turns out the heater core was OK. Just a lot of water comming off the AC condinser and running down the firewall. Bypassed the heater core and still had water problem. I can live with water not comming out the cooling system.

Hey guy's, just spent 500.00 on new waterpump & crank sensor due to both being bad now I find heater core is also leaking. Need to buy some time to save up more money for this repair. Can I bypass heater core with short pc of hose until a later time or cooler weather? Thanks.

Does anybody know about a spring on the PVC valve? Changed mine out but found no spring. Instructions stated watch for a spring when removing cover. Got all o-rings inplace and put together but if it needs a spring, I'll have to find one. Thanks.

Thanks for everyone's help. Will change PVC valve ASAP.

Is the PVC valve under it? If not where. I'll change it out.

Hey Archon thanks for the reply. It sets in front of intake manafold. Rockauto.com shows it listed under Air\Fuel-fuel pressure sensor #5S2066. I'm at work so no picture but if you can go Rockauto.com they have great picture of it for 97 SSE. Thanks

Hey guys thanks for all the help you offer us club members. For the last 5 months I've been fighting the used engine I had installed. Last night I found the fuel pressure sensor had soaked itself with oil and seperated. Could this have been causing a lot of the problem?(rough idle, miss in #1 or ...

Hey guys, will the PCM from a 99SE interchange with my 97SSE. Have a 99SE donor car. Also does the PCM have to be reprogramed when you do a engine swap.

:hail: Hey Bill thanks for the reply. My car has cost me over 3600 dollars sense Nov. 08 in repairs (used engine, lower control arm etc) Love the car but breaking me at the same time. If any club member can think of any other things that might help, please chim in. Got Mech. lined up to do crank ...
