The seal where the cv inserts into the transmission, right?

Manual transmission axle seal, please help

I need to replace my axle seal on my trans. I went to Advance and bought the driver's side output shaft seal. It is most definitely the wrong seal. Can someone direct me to the correct seal via part number or link? Sorry to ask such a basic question, but the seal got totally ripped up in removal and...

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Yeeeah, I was like, "This ground strap is bolted to metal, good." Then on a totally different thought I said, "This bracket isn't really holding anything, I'll just leave it unbolted." Never put the two together... but hey, even Charly Gordon got smarter over time.

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Well, I used the fan trick, and set it so the fan was just barely off.

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Sho' nuff. Worked like a charm. It still hunts around 1K... and when it gets sick of that it idles around 2700. Next I'll swap out the o2 sensor and actually find idle. At least I can drive in traffic now.

I'm really good at stuff the 2nd time around. :lol:

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Dav(e?), I'm sitting in my garage at work right now rapping myself in the head. So this engine, when it ran in the probe, spun like a top. I took it to Advance and had them check out the battery and alternator, cuz... I wanted to. He had run the engine to 2500, and turn on the high beams and fan... ...

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Well, a few details about idle... When it holds it, it holds it right around 1,100 RPMS. If it's low and hunting... 700ish, if it's high and hunting, 1400ish. So when I get death, it's not like it's fighting to hold any particular RPM... it goes to needle flat, sputtering and dying. I will adjust th...

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

We learn about each other a little more every day. I can see a long and frustrating relationship between her and I. :love2: REAL bucky when cold... but holds idle. When the bucking stops, the idle stops. So warming up seems to change it. I know it doesn't go into "closed loop" so I'm confu...

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

I will try that. If I pay 10 more cents a gallon then so be it.

Also, any dynos or drags with your ZE?

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Well, she's wanting to hold idle more and more. Now it fights when it's choking instead of just giving up, so that's an improvement. When she's running down the road she purrs like a cat, when she's sitting there she gags like a whore. The other thing, I am running Colt N/A tri-flows... not that it ...

Re: fuel supply vs return

For the record, the shorter hose that points to the passenger's side is the supply.

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

That voltometer technique is a touchy subject on MX6.com! It's not the TPS, I've had failed TPS-s before and it's not like this. I'm gonna take absolute easiest way out first and run dry gas tomorrow. I'm running an American DE disty with the HEI and coil setup. Misses aside, the need to give it gas...

Re: KLZE swap, some issues off the bat

Plugged the larger nipple. Plugged the small line going in after the JE50. After that it held a stable idle all the way up to temp, the wheels spun... up off the ground. After some revving it still held fast and successfully hunted for idle. Idk wtf happened. My friend suggested water, possibly. To ...
