    Wanted : Complete Engine Harness for 1993 Typhoon

    Ok, cool. I do remember the 'Hurricane Sandy' Ty. Yes, its been awhile. I have the terminals in my stash. I have automotive-suitable GTP wire in many colors. I can replace all the wire and terminals, re-using the original connector shells (after cleaning) if I don't have them in my stash too...

    1992 Ty #1844 on Bat (SOLD)

    I'll keep this brief. When discussing their portfolios, some people have a misconception of what "gains" and "losses" really are. Gains and losses aren't realized until you convert (sell or trade) the position back into cash. Unrealized losses and gains are just numbers in your account; I call...

    Wanted : Complete Engine Harness for 1993 Typhoon

    What kind of "damage" are you dealing with? Rodents? Fire? I do not have a Typhoon Cross Body harness in my stash. I could possibly build one from scratch, or more likely to work the first time, repair yours with new wire and terminals as nedded. Using an existing one for the pattern and...

    Fuel Pump Sending Unit part number for Syclone

    Ron Gregory. He's an OG SyTy guy that has been selling Walbros as a side business since 1998. https://www.autoperformanceengineering.com/ I just recently suggested that a friend contact Ron to order 2 pumps for a ZR-1. Ron didn't know the ZR-1 has dual pumps, but he does now, and helped my...

    Wanted : Complete Engine Harness for 1993 Typhoon

    Ok. "Engine Harness" is under the hood. Plugs into the firewall connector (C100), has 4 relays in it, and goes into the interior on the passenger side to the ECM's 3 connectors. All 3 years of engine harnesses are interchangeable, with a minor change in the connector above the brake booster...

    Wanted : Complete Engine Harness for 1993 Typhoon

    I have one. Brand new. Never installed. The MAP sensor connector has a broken/missing lock tab. (I swapped the good connector shell for a Ty that had a broken tab. These shells are available from sources.) Make an offer.

    Sy for sale on Carsforsale.com

    I call it the "Carfax Lotto". I've seen a trend on BaT where the 'Low Mile' vehicles (everything I track including diesel pick-ups) with mechanical odometers (easy to roll-back) seem to originate from states where odometer readings aren't generally reported to Carfax. There is no history for...

    1992 Ty #1844 on Bat (SOLD)

    I don't trade, or deal with crypto. This is the 'classroom' perception I have of what is occurring: You spend $10 to buy a chunk of crypto when it was introduced. The hype and demand over the years has that same chunk now valued at 1.5 Million. The actual monetary value is still $10. The hype...

    1992 Ty #1844 on Bat (SOLD)

    I commented about it being a rusty POS from Illinois. The comment got flagged. I'm not sure WTF is going on on BaT, but the prices-paid and enthusiasm has declined rapidly over the past 4-6 weeks. I track C4 ZR-1 prices. In June, 1990s in the 20-30k mile range (the least valuable, because...

    Sanden AC compressor install (almost)

    The black sludge is of concern. Whatever is causing it could take out the Sanden as well. I'm surprised that an SD7 series fits lengthwise. All I've seen on Vintage Air installations is the 505. Little compressors give lousy results. I have a C4 ZR-1 that has a 10PA17 compressor because of...

    Sanden AC compressor install (almost)

    Only a GUESS: You aren't using PAG oil in your retrofit R134 system, are you? PAG and the residual mineral oil used with R12 make a mess when mixed. The correct oil for a 134 retrofit is POE/Ester. Perhaps your "professional" installer doesn't know this?

    Sanden AC compressor install (almost)

    I live in SoCal, I use the A/C every time I drive it. The original compressor on my 93 was replaced in 2012 after 20 years of service because it was leaking at the shell. The replacement is still functioning just fine. Same with my other 100RT compressors on other GM vehicles. (It hasn't been...

    Interior part ID help

    Having had as many of these trucks apart as I have over 25 years, I should recognize it, and I don't. I don't see any part numbers, dates, or manufacture codes. Almost all GM OEM injection molded assembly line parts do. In the absence of these typical markings, I would make the ASSumption that...

    Have a bit of a head scratcher

    I stayed quiet. You seemed to have convinced yourself what was wrong. But yeah, when the IAC counts are Zero, the first thing to try is to close the throttle plate, and see if idle control improves. If the throttle plate is completely closed and the IAC counts are still zero, there is usually a...

    ACDelco Control Arm Part Numbers?

    Kuros; If you can wait awhile (like August when I get back from my Corvette Summer), I'll help you renew the bushings and ball joints. It's a lot of hard work, but not impossible. I've done it before, and I have the tools. I have a set of upper and lower take-out a-arms if we need them. There...

    Sy and Ty Transfer Case - side by side comparison (photos)

    Good luck. The chain hasn't been available new for at least 15 years. Cobra trans used to have used ones. I doubt they do any longer. The chains stretch. Especially in a T-case that had a locked viscous clutch. A stretched chain makes a hell of an erratic, loud, clunk-clunk sound as it snaps...

    92-93 Typhoon back glass

    Such a deal. A brand new one is about $75.

    Brake light on

    If you disconnected the tan/wht wire from the combination valve, the light stayed on, its not a brake pressure problem. If you disconnect the 10-pin on the ABS, the light stayed on, it is not the ABS. The only thing left is the Park Brake switch. Up near the fuse box is a switch with a single...

    Corner Cladding

    Read. I never said "9 a day". I said: "They were in multiples of (I believe 9) because that's how many fit on a transporter." Ie, 27, 36, 90, etc. They were only built on Monday for almost 8 weeks. Anyway, here's a breakdown of how many on what day, and the date. I wasn't too far off other...
