when this did happen, the EVIC said "Traction Control InOp" and something else i dont remember. at first i just popped the hood and jiggled the wire going to the CPS, and got in the car and it started right up. then i drove it to the shop and had a new one installed

best i ever got (doing it by hand) was 27,5mpg on a round trip from here to Monterey and back...

my '97 did the same thing to me a few years back. it was the Crank Position Sensor problem solved

COOOOL. no, the message center isnt blue, they just had the blue hue up a little too high for that part. the 2nd gens are green too. i really liked that vid. i didnt know the MarkVIIIs had speed-sensitve steering. thats why sometimes i can make a u-turn on a dime and other times i have to...

cars are meant to be driven. you got something shacked up like that and it gets pissed off and it wont run right, i dont care if its a 2002 Daewoo or a 1927 Dusenburgh Model J

wierd, mine has never done that. of course i dont go WOT before she's completly warm either!

haha gen two.. blend door door handle "driver door ajar" about 80% of the time (yes, after oiling, WDing, everything) drivers seat doesnt move forward/back gas door wont pop open from button inside, have to use lever in trunk headlights come on by themselves ... i'll think of a few...

yeah, 250 is a LOT of nitrous. i had a 250 shot in my 1969 Firebird, ran a 12.4 @ 119 mph, spinning the rear tires about 400ft.

nice.... burnout? you can tell the difference between a burnout with some one who is safe (dont want to break something) and someone that is "balls-out lets see a smoke show!" :D j/k man thanks for sharing!

yeah mine are really dim during the day, but at night they are bright as needed to be

replaced the ignition coil, problem solved. i have my car back!!! w00t

problem solved. thanks for all the HELP! :D

i wish it was as easy as replacing the wires. this thing has a seperate coil for every cylinder, which are $38 a piece at Autozone. if i had tons of money, sure just drop it off at the dealer and take a hit. i got a P0302 code today (cylinder 2 mis-fire) so i will replace that coil and see...

ok, pass. side second cylinder. the coil and boot is all one assembly they are very easy to replace, just pricey

Gotcha, thanks! got the Cylinder 2 mis-fire code again today while driving. should i replace the ignition coil for #2 now? (#2 is Passenger side, 1st cylinder right?) new plug so i know thats not it

yeah that is going to be next, if i can find one. already checked the local joints, no luck yet. i found on a OBDII forum that some people replaced the IAT, but nothing happened and they ended up having to change the PCM ($187) where is the PCM on the second gen|?

when i accellerate the whole car shakes and it idles really rough. i already replaced 1 CoilPack that had a craccked boot, but that didnt change anything. the car just flat out runs like :q:q:q:q

on the 1997 VIII due to the mis-firing. got P0113: IAT sensor circuit high voltage? anyone ever have this problem? i know that IAT = Intake Air Tempurature, but what can i do to remedy the problem. I also got the code: Cylinder 2 mis-fire, but i think that is because i pulled the COP...

yeah it's definatly a mis-fire. very consistent now, does it all the time at any throttle range at any RPM does it way worse at lower RPM (like when it shifts from 1-2, 2-3, 3-4) then it wont move and i have to downshift it just to accellerate. i am waiting for the check engine light but...

HIGHLY reccommended i removed mine the 1st weekend i owned the car. takes about 45 minutes including jacking car, taking tire off, inner fender liner, etc... i also drilled out the air-box while i was at it. takes about 15 more minutes. good idea to do while you have the pass. tire off...
