Someone take it best offer before it goes to the scrapyard.

To whoever I was talking to about the car a few weeks ago my phone broke and I lost your number. Got a new phone same number... ill post up some pics too if you're still interested.

I really hate to do this... I've had this car since 04, its been a love hate relationship the whole time... but I need a tranny for my monte. anyone wants the car as a whole is welcome. It sits in nashua NH.

Has a rebuilt transmission as of march 09, it was driven till may 2010. Had a factory xover put in at the same time. No pm III. Car has about 102000 miles on it. Pretty clean body.

Make offers on anything. Money talks, need cash... jeffm 160 chip for sale as well. I think that's the one... whatever the best one was.

Text me what you want after you post here so I don't forget to check. You can call too if you want.

Oh it has a new X over too... think it was the last stock one they could find. was done with the tranny.

Saying good bye to the TGP. 1990 Red TGP 100,xxx miles. Best offer on anything. Only real mod is 160 Jeff M chip. Rebuild Tranny with less than 5k on it... was done March 09. Will post pics of anything you are interested in.... Will check back in a day or two.

Ok through my ghetto diagnosis its not keeping its fuel pressure after the regulator. Took the return line off let it prime and fuel squirted out the whole time. pressed the valve test the pressure at and got the same result as if the line was still hooked up. plugged the line and it squirts like it would when it starts. The regulator isnt leaking into the vaccuum lines but it doesnt seem to hold pressure? unless there is something that holds pressure after that line.

So they have some pretty inexpesive fuel pressure checkers on ebay so Im probably going to buy one just to check cause when it wants to start its sprays lots out of the checker place but right now while its now starting its not spraying so much out. Could the fuel pressure regulator do this? It seems like a fuel issue now cause it wants to start but then wont kinda like its running out of gas. I really need to actually diagnose this tho. Payday friday.

Seriously, why would they die? could there be a voltage problem going to them or something? As I understand theres little wires would up in there. I got the sensors at differant places but theyre made by the same company.... I dunno very frustrating.

ya same issue again. anyone want a car? :gr_mad:  :cussing:  :bawling1::gr_guns:

Tried to check wires today... dont think i was doing it right... everything read 0. I probed all the connectors to the CPS connector. Im not good at the electrical part of automotive.

But I was reading another thread and decided to change the CPS again... and after a few cranks it started right up... and runs fine. Could something be making the sensor go bad, or could it just be a bad sensor. That seems to be the whole problem.

maybe a partial break in one of the wires causing intermittent ignition problems. do a resistance ( ohm) check on the 2 wires and the copper shield wire from the CS plug to ICM plug.  your gonna have to peel the stuff back to get to the copper wire on the CS end.

i was reading through the service manual in the no start section and I have a question. Am i supposed to see RPM's when I'm cranking the engine? Cause Im not, I followed the chart through my problems and it said bad ECM/faulty wire in circuit 430(i think). also the green wire on the (bottom left/passenger side) on the ICM looks damaged. Is this circuit 430? Sorry I guess I could go look it up.

My volt meter was acting up so I havent been able to those wires... are they the same ones you were telling me to test?

yes

No parts stores around here carry fuel pressure gauges so bought a new fuel pump... plenty of pressure... shoots to the hood lol... but no start...

help?

should i try my old crank sensor to see if the new one is bad?
