Fails- new flex sensor still doesn't work. I still get no frequency signal with the multimeter so either A) the multimeter is frying them, B) this one was dead too or C) the multimeter won't read frequency on this sensor. I am betting C. It seems straight forward to set up but I am failing hard. Still got a low frequency DTC in hptuners so it's not reading.
Wins- AC works great. I need to wire in a relay to trigger the electric fan when the AC is on, but honestly with it so hot the fan runs all the time anyways so I don't NEED it. Also need to fix a small issue in the tune where the PCM puts the engine into deceleration fuel cutoff mode when the clutch is depressed at low speed or I am coasting in neutral. I disabled the fuel side of things but never did the spark thing so it kinda studders at 400 rpm and it doesnt have the power to stay running with the compressor running so it does sometimes. The AC working however WAY overpowers those small things to do. 10/10 recommend. Will do again. I won't own a non AC car. Not worth it.
I had an exhaust tick noise and I ordered new GM MLS exhaust manifold gaskets hoping the set I had on were blown. Good news they were. They were the graphite crappy style I got when I ordered the long tubes. They went in super easy and got rid of the noise. Another small win.
Cruised the car 2 hours today through some curvy roads around lakes country with 2 of my high school buddies. One has a 5th gen SS camaro and the other one has a stick coyote 5.0 mustang. Grabbed a pizza and some beer at the best mexian/italian lake restaurant MN has to offer and drove the 2 hour trip back home.
