A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

First post? Wow that's some entrance you just made  :)


I guess that was funny to just me :icon_eyes:

I have been reading post over here for about a year...coming from the other two sites. I had engine problems and Billy Anderson has set up an engine for me. I just got it back so I am slowly putting it in. I just have been out of it for a while, that's why no posts. Sorry for the dry humor :rock:

I welcome the dry humor - better than the other "comedians" here.

Changed that O2 sensor out today.  Haven't started the car yet or drove it, but i did reset the ECM.  Let you guys know if the code comes back or not.

Ok, finally got the MAF translator installed with the MAF!(thanks Early).  My car is mostly stock.  I got a 3" MAF, and I set the settings(initially) on 4, which is 3"LT1/caprice/impala(richer at idle) and I set the WOT on 2, which 4% richer.  Well, I got the code 44 again, and the car seemed to idle rough.  So, i changed the settings to 3, which is the 3" LT1/caprice/impala and the WOT to 0.  The code 44 did not return, but the car cutouts when I rev it up.
