I think you should have a few good stiff whiskeys, take a strong sedative and have a lay down

Think about it all in the morning!! :thumbs:

Yeah but this is absolutely a fuel delivery problem.

Almost no question about it. And the first port of call id be making is pulling the fuel sender assembly out of the tank and checking the filter on the pickup at the bottom of the pump.

If thats the issue, youll need a new sock filter, new fuel sender assembly gasket, and a new main filter.

Im buggered if i know where West Wales is, but i know its not in Australia. Get onto MAXX WRENCH (website is in my sig below) and tell him where you are and what you need when you find out what you need to fix the car.

91 isnt an early model L98, its the last L98. It wont be a bad LCD cluster stopping the car from starting, cause thats not needed to start the car.

You dont say if it cranks or not, so thats about as far as we can take it without stabbing in the dark.

It doesn't take very much "too tight" though before it runs out of movement before WOT which can damage the tv linkage.

You can also put the car in diagnostic mode for 10 seconds or so, which forces the iac shut. Then disconnect it and start the car like Casey said.

Yep you can do it that way too, with blocking off the IAC intake all together you can be sure its shut and not allowing anything past.

Thanks much for the replies. Diagnostic mode with the paper clip? Do I have to start the car to force the IAC shut or just turn the key tell I get the diagnostic display? I do have an auto so I am shooting for 400rpm in drive after warmed up or cold? It idles much higher after it’s warmed up right now. Do I still go for the 400rpm with a nonstock cam in the car? I think Alvin is trying to idle someplace around 750 after it’s warmed up but I will have to verify that if it matters.

Yep, with a paperclip. No dont start the engine until you have the IAC plug removed, cause that will open the IAC again. Better off doing it with it warmed up id say. That is what the book usually says.

Why would Alvin be trying to get it to idle that high? In or out of gear?

Thats about 200rpm over stock, which will be somthing like this:
[IMG]http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a185/Casethecorvetteman/Tuning/stockidle.jpg[/IMG]


It may or may not be the same as that in stock form on your 93, cause the above is for 94/95. It will give you an idea of what the stock idle speeds for what temps and in or out of gear are meant to be. As youll see there, the idle speed is above 750rpm at cooler temps, so still aim for that 400rpm in gear, or youre more likely to get split BLMs if you have the throttle plates open too much (wouldnt matter on a 94/95 cause you can use the sequential injection tables to tune that out).

Block off the IAC path in the front of the throttle body so no air can pass through, start it up and adjust the minimum airflow screw til youve got it at 400rpm in D for an auto, or 450rpm in N for a manual.

Then when you start the engine, it should be fine. Start the engine, allow it to run for about 5-10 seconds, shut it off for about 5-10 seconds, then start it again.

Joe as far as Airbags and SIR systems go mate, i dont like them, especially earlier US setups, and what youd find behind my dash is a couple big ceramic resistors to keep the computer happy, my air bag in the wheel cant go off, and the passenger airbag is long gone.

Airbag module connection mate. Anything that colour is related to airbag.

I reckon youre right about the others, although not for the factory radio. Hard to say really what they are.

The 3 black ones there will be the A/C head unit, and the old original radio connectors.

The piece with the grey top thats bolted to the plastic frame is related to the ABS.

I wouldnt hold your breath on the sensor being sealed, ive never removed one with the system charged (read what the service manual says about it, cause there could be some info there on it)

BUT i do know that when i last had my system filled the guy tried to remove that sensor and gas was pissing out everywhere.

Mine being 94 and factory R134-A could be different respect to something like this, but would be best to check the manual before you go too far into it.

Well as im noticing more and more these days, people dont seem to apreciate information presented to them, whether it helps or not.

Whether or not it seemed extraneous to you, if one day you were interested to know what vehicles came with a Delco 10MT starter motor, had i not posted, youd have had to look it up. Sure, youd have found the info, but not like as if i did you a dis service by telling you.

Now i dont really know for sure, but just by the tone of your post, i dont get the feeling youre being too polite. In fact i get the impression youre telling me my assistance is not wanted in any way, shape, or form.

So due to that theory i have, i think maybe if i dont offer any assistance, then i probably wont have to worry about people not apreciating it.

Some people apreciate efforts made by others, some people dont. Some people can apreciate a bit of a joke, some people just cant.

I think over the past few years ive given alot of my free time to people that dont apreciate it. Am i obliged to do so? Most certainly not. Did i put myself out to get you that info? You bet your arse i did. Why did i? Cause i thought you might like to know.

So what do you reckon?

I wouldnt go so far as to say im negative about them, but i have seen after market chips cause this issues you speak of, and PCM4less chips were known to be involved twice.

You need to disconnect the negative terminal on the battery before you go and disconnect any wiring, so all DTCs will then be clear.

I dont like piggy backs at the best of times. Its not the way it should be done.

The thing about the ECM is its all connected in and out through the PROM, and if that fails, you get all kinds of issues.

First step is get rid of that chip and put a real one in there.

Then let me know where you stand.

Yep, they are 2 piston.

Hard to say if its worth it or not, youd have to be sure they will fit under your wheels. I know there are 6 piston calipers that will fit under A-Molds, but they wont fit under sawblades.

As per reply mate, here is the info you requested, post up your findings here and ill do what i can to help you get the system working as it should


To run a diagnostic on the PKE system, connect pins 4 and 8 on the ALDL (see pic below to see pin label order)
Resized Image

And the PKE diagnostic system works as follows:
With pins 4 and 8 connected, the PKE light in the Driver Info Centre will flash the codes.

Here is the list of DTCs and what they mean:

DTC #12: Receiver Memory Bad
DTC #13: Transmitter Not in Range
DTC #14: Non-Valid Transmitter Received
DTC #15: Valid Transmitter Received
DTC #16: Passenger Door Button Depressed
DTC #17: Hatch Button Depressed



To program the system:

1. Place transmitter and any optional transmitter 10 feet or more away from the car.
2. turn the ignition key to the ON position and make sure the radio is OFF.
3. Push the TRIP/ODO button on the DIC twice.
4. Within 5 Seconds, push and hold the FUEL/INFO button on the DIC until the PKE light on the DIC comes on and stays on.
5. Turn the ignition to the OFF position, but leave the key in the ignition. The PKE light will come on and begin flashing.
6. Bring one transmitter into range. When the system recognizes the transmitter, the PKE light will stay on.
7. To program an optional transmitter, move the first transmitter out of range and repeat step 6
Remove the key from the ignition or turn the ignition ON.

Then the DTC you have is of the OBD2 variety and can be reliably read using a TECH2 unit.

My wife bought me an OBDII scanner (don't remember what brand/model), and it didn't work, so I used the paper clip method. It seemed to cycle through all the modules, and displayed C12, I believe - whichever code says that there are no codes.

C12 means nothing at all in any other module other than Module 1, which is the CCM module. The CCM module DTCs will not set the SERVICE ENGINE SOON light, they will flash SYS on the instrument cluster.

You can have every single DTC known to man in the other modules, but if there is nothing in Module 1, youll get C12.

The way the other modules indicate no DTCs is by displaying "- - -" in the main display above the module number.

Unplug the theft deterent module, you dont need it.

Sort out the issue that is causing the fuse to blow when the horn is used.

The starter should be a Delco 10MT, they are a good and reliable starter motor, i dont see any good reason to use anything else.

No one can answer that at all, cause youve only given half a story. What DTC 28 is it? Where is the MODULE NUMBER for the DTC?

Need the full story before i can do anything.

What a load of garbage. Who told you that crap?

I went from 24lb/hr to 36lb/hr Bosch and i can tell you for a 100% fact there is no difference in drivability or reliability.

Putting up the pressure a little aint gonna do what you expect. Youre talking about pumping the pressure up over 50psig to get 28lb/hr out of your 25s, and they wont like that. If 24lb/hr Bosch flow 25.3 @43.5psig, and 24 @39psig, thats 5 psi for an extra 1.3lb/hr on a 24 pound injector.

Upping the fuel pressure is not how you get the injectors to flow what you need.

Why go 28? I dont know, youre not, so why are you asking? youve gone 25, thats what you said you have, and that is all youll get.

Dont expect much and you wont be too dissapointed. The combo listed in your sig isnt going to give you what id call high horsepower. You say nothing about bottom ends so one has to just assume its stock with the exception of the piston you tried to drive a distributor screw through.

If you make 400 horses, ill be very impressed.
