    97 Mark VIII wont start - HELP!!

    I can remember where I found this online but it has saved my ass multiple times. This has all the wiring diagrams you could want. It seems to view better on my phone for some reason though.

    97 Mark VIII wont start - HELP!!

    Start checking around the transmission. My first thought is it could be something simple like a connector unplugged because that is a lot of issues at once.... 1. Gear display error: that is an input from the range sensor 2. Traction control error: could be from the vss issue. 3. Engine temp...

    Coolant leak (Passenger side rear)

    That was the plan gotta pull the trans to deal with some other stuff. When the engine was on the stand it was in there pretty good. Hopefully it comes out.

    Manual Transmission Swap

    Since the 3.27 rear gear is still in there it is really tall but mechanically transmission and engine work perfect. If I could do it again I would have went 3.55 or 3.73. Also the rear end is gonna need some help. Stiffer bushings and such. It wheel hops pretty easy.

    Manual Transmission Swap

    Ya it was partially a cost based decision. I figured with the stainless it wouldn't have an issue with rust but hadn't heard about the cracking. Also I didn't realize that local guys were that cheap. Jet hot wants like 500 or more to do V8 headers

    Coolant leak (Passenger side rear)

    I have a slow coolant leak coming from the flange on the passenger side head that feeds the heater core. it has two pipes connected to it. One goes to the head and the other travels through the v of the engine to the water pump I think... Both feed the heater core. Is this flange an o-ring seal...

    Manual Transmission Swap

    Car is pretty much finished. It runs a drives great there are a few things left to iron out but overall the project was a success. I didn't take to many photos towards the end but started to video the process part way through instead. Here is a link to the first video!

    Manual Transmission Swap

    Crossmember location was close enough to reuse it. The Heighth from output shaft to the bottom of the transmission mount was within a 1/2 inch of the old transmission. It should line the drive shaft up the same through the tunnel. Fingers crossed. This extra metal was connected to the...

    Manual Transmission Swap

    91 lsc le, I was under the impression that with a one piece trans were the bellhouseing is not separate it was not necessary for a concentric check according to my trans guy. I could be wrong though.

    Manual Transmission Swap

    More progress! I got the motor put back in and started reconnecting things. Tidied up the ecm mount installed the clutch master and the stainless braided hydraulic line. Had to use the persuader to make room for the steering shaft near the headers. I am glad I wrapped these the tolerance is...

    Mk viii #3 coil keeps blowing

    Might be stupid question. Did you check the plug? Just throwing out ideas out hear but could the ressistance of the path through plug be to high. Google seems to indicate this is the most common cause of coil failure. Never ran into it myself just the first thing that popped into my head.

    single wire sensor on the back of the engine?

    Does anybody know what this sensor is called. I broke the retainer for the pin inside the connector and I am looking to get a replacement. Single wire sensor grounded through the engine I'm guessing. There is one on each head. Thanks

    Manual Transmission Swap

    I have been working on this for months in what little spare time I have. I just now decided to post it lol. I decided to keep the gears. I'm hoping the lower first gear in the 5 speed will pick it up enough off the line .
