    87 tbi zero power

    Is there certain areas of the fusible links that would’ve only gotten damaged? Or could it be anywhere on the fusible links what I’m getting at is I know it runs from that post that connects the 3 links if i clean the starter and everything and don’t feel any bad links could it possibly be in...

    Engine light comes on while driving

    Yeah this would work but problem is I’ll need to pull over on the side of the highway and jam a paper clip in there and hope the code doesn’t go away in time so I can read it. Not ideal

    Update, got two 4x6 in cab corners and two 4 inches in the dash all hooked up to the deck.

    Wiring Two subs together?

    Yeah they are DVC 1000 watt 4 ohm subs, gonna make box behind seat. Seats gonna have to come forward a lot but I’ll have to make it work lol. Would this be a better way of wiring them? Also would under powering them do anything bad? Or only if you overpower

    Wiring Two subs together?

    https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/W001/W0012897M.pdf So if I’m wiring speakers into this amp They should be 2/8 ohm but if I’m doing subs or “bridging amplifier” my connection needs to be either 4/8 ohms I’m basically looking for the safest way to wire these but still...

    Overheating 87 TBI

    you’re talking about how there’s that fifth hole on the front of the block where water pump bolts overtop of may be plugged? This is the first I’ve heard of this and what you explained makes complete sense going to try drilling a 1/16th tommorow and hopefully that lets it stop overheating again...

    Overheating 87 TBI

    Original TBI, heater core is hooked up? Heat works. Bought it all rad fins were smashed and rad had a tiny drip so thought that was the reason she was overheating and then it’s just been fixing the next thing ever since but I’m about done with this it makes no sense
