I hit another wall. I messed when putting in the new top screw so now the her opening stripped. Does anyone know where I can buy a used mps. I don't know how this happened. It was turning in so smoothly.

I hit another wall. I messed when putting in the new top screw so now the her opening stripped. Does anyone know where I can buy a used mps. I don't know how this happened. It was turning in so smoothly. ![]() It's not a wall it's time to stop and take one step at a time. There are plenty of cores around. I'd give you mine but I keep one as a spare. You seem like you are in a hurry for this? If you are don't be. Find a core and have Jeff Bowlsby set it up for you....cost you a little money....yes..but it will be near what is a stock setting. Make sure it holds vaccum to 12 psi at least and will hold that. You already know it shouldn't leak down. Then make sure ALL the vaccum leaks are sealed. That car should not run with the MPS uplugged like that. The ECU would interpret that as WOT and gas would be coming out of your exhaust. So you have other stuff either not right .....or you have broken stuff that wasn't broke in the first place and have to start over. |
