I cleaned my engine and installed my 550cc injectors, but......

I apparently didn't burn all of the engine cleaner out of the system before I did that. I ended up scaring myself when the below happened.

*scroll down*

































Thank God I took vortex's advice and spliced in the new injector harnesses instead of cutting off and replacing the old ones. Now that the smoke has cleared, I'll see about putting the 550's back in.

why are you swapping injectors and such in the middle of the woods?

It's at my friends house actually. I was helping him install a playground swing set (in background).

Yeah, at my dads store we did one of those cleaners to the car that make it smoke. he took off out on the main road and it covered the street, the cars behind him came to complete stop for a few seconds till it cleared. It was hillarious.

holy crap! i would have shit a brick!

yeah sometimes my car smokes from the back too.... wierd

haha lol... good one... derrick, what is that pc doing in your trunk?!? you take that everyday?

I fix computers all the time. It's my cousin's system. I have another system sitting in the back seat that needed fixing too.

oh..... ok... cool...

I used this stuff that plugs into a vacuum line (PCV or brake booster) and it draws the liquid into the manifold. I don't recall the name, but I would recognize it if I went to the store.

would it be sea foam?

lol... i'd do that...

Not sea foam. Something else that I found in a local auto store.

oh ok...

does it work better than sea-foam?
I'm going to pick some up today if I can find it anywhere here, and give it a shot.

What is that Vamp? Can you post the name or post a pic of that thing?
It works better than sea foam?

I've never seen/used sea foam before. I will have to look next time I'm at the store.

Funny enough, my oil pressure gauge started working properly after I cleaned the engine out.

Speaking of oil pressure and gauges, any suggestions (from anyone) on where to get an oil pressure sender (electronic)?
Some jerk on ebay sent me the oil pressure gauge without the sender.

Go to the manufacture's website and look up thier official distributers, then e-mail the distributer.

I'll have to do that. I have been emailing the AC technics (the type of gauge that it is) for weeks now with no reply...

Ah, one sec. I'll find the website that I got my new sender from, since I have the same gauges.

Call AutoDynamics at 626-618-2026. That's where I got my temp sender from when I messed mine up trying to install it to the oil pan.

Thanks for the number.
I have a water temp gauge (that came with the other one) that also didnt come with a sender (but I'm thinking that I can just hook that one up to the stock wiring (off the cluster on a 96) if I ever end up using that gauge (will have oil pressure, voltage, and tach in my triple pod A pillar)

You can only use certain gauges with thier respective senders, as the voltage mapping may be different (i.e. 5volts = 100 degrees on one where as 8volts = 100 degrees on another).

Yea I figured that much, hence why I have been looking to get an AC techincs sender (and emailing the idiot who didnt send it to me, everyday)

Vamp, ever find that webpage?
Havnt had a chance to give them a call yet, hopefully tonite...
