General Buick Tech / Re: GBODY PARTS....
« on: March 17 2014, 03:54:58 PM »
theres a couple of shitty tr vendors. but as stated its bc of vendor protection they dance around issues. i wonder when ppl pay for tb.com new private access will they become protected against a shitty vendor? that would be more than interesting to see  :rofl:  i have found hartline to be a solid vendor so i stick w them. like i told a vendor over there ill buy a whole car b4 i buy that same $5 part from them. i am shocked how those vendors stay in business. when i saw world of motor works donating to nastys car i thought to myself good luck on free parts bc he doesn't ship parts that were paid for lollol. Champion is actually becoming a shitty vendor. still waiting for parts since october! he sent heads b4 sending rockers and studs,things that would be stockable.  :021:  agh soon ill be done w build and can bitch next year about the same assholes and hopefully not new ones.

General Buick Tech / wb 02 and knock
« on: November 05 2013, 11:44:14 PM »
Well it seems every new part I add knocks seems to come with it. The parts im.adding are only for monitoring- pl wb02... I finally got wb02 installed-plx and on one run I hit 14#s but wb.was showing 12.49. Does it matter the car wasnt floored and tps volt was about 2. I guess im.asking even though it wasnt floored it showed 12.49. I did.also.exper ience a 5.8kr at this.point... oh the 02s were 799 when.all tbis happened.
 Another queation am I analyzing this.right? Looking at tps volts w 02 w wb?

IHADAV8 Playground / Re: fuel mileage
« on: September 04 2013, 01:22:58 PM »
At my work I drive a Chev pickup with a 4.3l V6 and it's mileage is worse than my own 4.8L V8 GMC.  We put a LOT of miles on our trucks, from the end of October until mid April we run our trucks 24 hours a day / 7 days a week so we use LOTS of fuel.


its funny the 4.3 in my bros 86 monte is peppy and great but in his 99 blazer it really sucks. a total dog... bad mpg no power.... maybe when they wentt vortex :hmm
