Re: WTF!!! Somone in PA/NJ/DE area come get my car running
shes alive... and running quite nice. Awhile ago i thought i had the map and tps sensors switched, i thought i looked at someone elses car and saw that i had them backwards. I switched them and it ran alot better, but still with a missfire. Well, i went to recal the tps sensor for ***** and giggles, and saw that i had no red wire with a blue stripe switched them back to how they were in the first place and it runs great.
I cant wait to start tuning, its breaking the tires loose in second at half throttle and 6 psi. Lets talk about cam seals though, they were leaking like crazy so i changed them yesterday morning- but its still pissing oil all over my motor mount and down the timing case. Its not the vc gasket. The cams were slightly grooved from the old seals i guess, do you think thats how its getting by the new ones?
And does anyone know how much oil an ls tranny takes? That is leaking oil past the brand new driver side axel seal as well. There's no such thing as a turbo honda without at least one oil leak. But at least my welded oil drain doesnt leak anymore

Great to hear it's working alright. Don't know about those cam seals since I've never had an issue with them before... Was there any rust on the cam where the seal went? If the cam wasnt smooth where you installed the seals, you might want to smooth it with some emery cloth, that might help.
For the tranny, take out the upper filler hole and fill it till it starts to flow out of it. I think it's around 3.2qts? if it was 100% empty before, but I might be 100% wrong (and I think my LS tranny, when I changed the fluid, took about a qt less than the manual told me it would).

theres an upper filler hole?
the valve cover gasket was actually popping off the head in between the cams, so it wasnt the cam seals. I just rtv'd the ---- out of it to get it to stay in place.
