Hi all.

I made a post in the lt1 thread with a question but it said a moderator needed to approve it or something. Now I cant find the post in my control panel. Any idea how long it takes for a moderator to approve a post?


Anyhow, I'm in Michigan. I just got a 1994 firebird formula with old red trans-am rims, flowmaster exhaust (no headers)...and so far its working me to death trying to figure problems out...

Re: Hi all.

Welcome to CamaroZ28.com!! Good to see another 94 Formula on the site.

Post is in "LT1 Based Engine Tech". I approved it.

Sounds like a combination of a cheap Chinese rip-off Opti (there's a reason the AC Delco, Delphi and MSD cost as much as they do - and no, the MSD unit is no better than the factory part), and soaking it with coolant - an absolute no-no with an unvented Opti.

Download the free Scan9495 software, get a cable, and run a proper scan. See the "sticky" thread at the top of the "computer diagnostics....." Forum for info on the software.

Message wasn't for you Steve. It was for "VivienSM", who hijacked your thread. Her IP address traced back to Armenia, while her profile showed her location as the U.S. minor island possessions in the Pacific Ocean. After 17 years of doing this, it's pretty easy to sniff out the fake accounts/spammers.

I deleted "her" post so you can't see it any more. I'll delete my comment, which is no longer meaningful.

Sorry for any confusion.
