    25Horseplays 92 gl is now in our possession. Hopefully it'll be a BP auto with an aspire swap sometime soon. Maybe someday a BPRT auto

    Guess I'll throw up a pic of my boost gauge install in my B6t festy. Just pulled out the switch blanks and filed with a round file til it fit snug. It aint going anywhere.

              I think it did not like the fact it was not the one and only in his fleet....he would replace one thing and another would break.....for no reason...new motor...front end I believe....other little issues here and there....got it all fixed and he gets run into a ditch and the tranny gets wasted.....he needed to get that car away from him.....lol.
              It is almost all new now though.

                  Why did one bust the others teeth out! You are going to have to rust proof the hell out of those cars for Ohio winters. They look good.

                      I was using my Festiva as a saw horse and inadvertently circular sawed a giant gash into my grill.

                          Its reading 10inhg because it reads 3psi with the engine off... gotta replace the gauge sometime. I wonder if autometer would take it in. I get "15psi" with a stock b6t ecu!

                          Im not sure why the oil light is on. Theres pressure. Ive put over 800 miles on it. I would hope theres pressure, if not then daaaang thats one tough motor. Maybe my sender is bad? Any way to check the wiring?

                            Unplug the the pressure sender. If the light goes off then its a bad sender. If it stays on then the wire is shorted to ground somewhere.

                            I don't think I'll buy another Autometer mechanical boost gauge again. I had a phantom series that was inaccurate, yours reads wrong, and I know of 2 other people here who have inaccurate Am gauges.
