i changed plug wires and plugs and the one coil where i didn't have no fire , new coil still has no fire,, a week ago this started when i noticed the DIS fuse was burnt,,,,, and ideas? The deal in back the coils is only about 1000 miles old ..
sounds like the ignition control module
Agreed. Remove your ICM and have it tested.

ok i bought a new one an ICM you call it , was $164.00 where i work,, will change it out by this weekend.. i have someone wanting to by my car for 6000.00 im on the edge should i or shouldn't i.... i am 80% no an 10% yes what yall think?..... if i do decide to keep her.... iam going all out no matter what the wife says,,, i am going to devote myself in to getting her to go max out to see whati can do to get all i can out of the TGP.. and to break the record times on this forum not to say im better i am going to try and do better , i want to push this 3.1 to smoke this guy in town with a 6.0 GTO after what he said about my car ... he said and i( quote ) i would smoke the car.. this has been about a year now in my head.. i have been trying to keep her as stock as possible.But i am sure i will have to amp her up to do this... thanks for the input guy's i already know the tranny won't hold up.. do you know what HP and torque the 2007 gto has ?
I'm sure that will fix it. 6k is a lot of loot for a TGP, I'd be tempted too, especialy for starting a small business...thought you mention about a detailing. Cocky GTO driver, Don't worry, he prob doesn't talk about how a heavy ass turbo diesel truck beat him. We seam to focus the TGP as a Drag car, but the Pikes and peak and daytona tgp seam to stear it to a coarse car.,,pro touring . Not saying the TGP isn't a fun drag car. Got to go with a 4t65hd or the 4t80 im trying to shoehorn for drag racing with slicks.
Gto is suppose to have around 400 crank hp. But alas , it's effing heavy but still manages 13s with a decent driver. If he can't drive for shit, Chinese tires, you could beat him with a "top gun" modded tgp on drag radials. Granted he doesn't spin out of control taking you out too.

thanks Bro.. this is what i needed to know.. :icon_biggrin: i will keep yall updated
$6K...............If he doesnt buy yours I'll sell him a TGP & TSTE for that much. Sell, Sell, Sell!!! You can pick up another one for $1K and put $3K in mods on it, and spend the remaining $2K on the new business.

On one of my cars, one of the connections came undone (on the ICM) and wouldnt do anything, took me a few hours to find it.

you mean the connection that goes into the coil?
Yes, the one closest to the turbo. Drilled a small hole in the DIS and zip tied it on. On a side note I also took the backing plate off and applied reflective tape to the back of it to try and keep the heat off the ICM, also only reinserted two of the three bolts as they are a real pain to get to.
HTH
Should I ask about the game last night since I am in AL going to a school currently?

Sorry not understanding about drilling a hole.
Hum the Games ? i think i need to go to the doctor tomorrow i may have busted a vain in my neck...LOL
Where the arrows are for #'s 1,2 & 3 I drilled small holes and inserted a small zip tie before installing, once on the car after the wires were hooked up I zip tied them in place since the weatherpac connectors were broken and would became loose.
Double check to make sure you are not drilling through any wires when drilling.
