    Chipped

    I am not. This Chip was the one in the Delco packaging. But I think I have narrowed the issue down. The battery isn't holding a charge. And at this point a jump isn't effective. Im going to get e new battery here soon. As for the carb, everything under the hood was rebuilt in 2002. The motor was...

    Autonomous car threat

    I watched the video. And I believe that Google is more than likely correct. How many times have I reached for my phone to pick it up. Or to fire off a quick text. 11 of 14 accidents means that the fully autonomous car drives too well. Why would we sound an alarm for a safer ride? If giving up my...

    Autonomous car threat

    1985 Back to the Future is released. The thought of time travel has intrigued us all and yet it is still not probable. Smart cars driving themselves around now that is probable. It in no way deters anyone from Vehicle restoration. Nor does it change the requirements of driving privileges...

    Autonomous car threat

    I have seen Zeitgeist and a few other Conspiracy documentaries. Yes, they are intriguing and they do make you think that this could be happening. What everything truly boils down to, is if you have a Job you've already conformed. You're already a "slave" to the Federal government. And that it...

    Autonomous car threat

    There will always be those few, who attempt fate. I am thankful for survival of the fittest. If you treat you "driverless" vehicle as a regular vehicle you should have no issues. I mean sure you drop something and look down to pick it up, or you yawn for a lengthy amount of time. There is a...

    My Weight Loss Program

    In a world of modern medicine and advancing sciences is hard to believe that everything doesn't have a cure yet. Lucky for you that your body with the help of doctors was able to fight this off. If I were a doctor I would be studying you. But I am not a doctor but a car enthusiast

    Chipped

    In my other Thread about the Q-jet I said I was going to put the Performance chip in. And I did that. ( Pictured Above ). I matched the Icons on both ends of it to, I guess , place it in properly. Got in and fired her up. Idled really high for a bit then kicked down to about 2500rpm. then down...

    Car is on the floor. And performs much better. Removing a 30 year old cat is a pay off!

    Q-Jet

    This could make some sense. Back in 03 my dad took the chip out, he said it made the car feel like it couldn't sit still. But there is a trick to get the AC to work he said I had do something in the glovebox?? Should I pop this one in and see whats it does?
