Moin people, I probably did something wrong with my treasure. After the conversion to LPG it took about 5000km and swops, valves burned. Cylinder 1 and 3 0 compression. Despite always meaningful driving on LPG. He never gets more than 3000u/min on LPG with me. My questions now: 1. Is this engine (46 N* 305hp) not suitable for operation with LPG? 2. Let the engine overtake, or rather new unit? (I am thinking of stronger valves/valve seats while overtaking) 3. Then flash-lube in and everything will be fine? 4. Gasumbauer knock over (pictured) because he explicitly told me: Och, Flash-lube do you need net? I thank you already for your answers… Does really hurt to see this eagle stand as a wing-lame duck in the garage. Gruss Marco

I have been left a Firebird Trans Am in the garage by my landlord, with the words “If you sell it for me, you can use the garage”. At the moment I would only like to have it out of the garage to take photos and, above all, to be able to put my car in at some point. Problem is that my landlord has now lost all the keys to the car. The car is open, but I can’t get the P-course out. The question is now… can you easily bypass this lock? It is not, as far as I am informed, a theft protection, but only a protection mechanism, so that one does not unintentionally roll off or go off or whatever… therefore one would have to be able to put this mechanism out of force. It is now impossible for me to push the gear lever. Also shitty no matter what is still broken. As long as I get rid of the car there again. So if someone has a suggestion, or even is interested in the vehicle, I would be happy. Greetings The_Xperience

Hello. I have a K30 ex-army and a problem. Last night was on a nice wet meadow and didn’t come any further. I thought half so bad, I have four wheel. Pustekuchen! I put the freewheel hubs on lock, inside on 4H and even on 4L but nothing does. Except the rear wheels. Is already embarrassing if one gets stuck with such a car on a wet meadow already. The freewheel hubs I have already unscrewed and looked after. The functioning perfectly. Where could you look again? I hope for a little bit more. Thank you very much.

evening I want to get an Ami but I don’t know about these vehicles now I wanted to ask you if you don’t want to help me? I’ll post my introductions 1: it should be a V8 with a sporty look e.g. Corvette 2: it should be as economical as possible I don’t want a box to soak 20 liters or more 3: since I can only make a little myself it should be robust 4: cheap in the purchase about 500€ and I know that I demand a lot but I’ll get my everyday car Is there something like this on the US market? What do you think there is a model that is suitable for me? Thank you

Hello I have recently had a strange problem with my Pontiac Grand Am (1992, 3.3L V6): After switching on (whether cold or warm) I have an idle of 2000U/min, after a few times pressing the accelerator pedal he has the normal idle, but then goes again to a about 300U/min too high idle. The flashing of the error code pointed to the throttle valve sensor as culprit. But I have just replaced, no improvement. If I during the operation the plug from the se nsor pulls, the engine swallows short. Wiring should therefore be OK. Could this still be due to the crankshaft ventilation? If I remove the hose there I already have a light vacuum (tested with my finger). However, is for mine rather bad, but have no experience values which is normal… Does any of you still have some possible sources of error in mind? I know, is difficult if you don’t have the engine in front of you, but ev. had the same effect someone here… Greetings Dominik

Hi people Since I’m picking up my 66 Pontiac GTO next week I wanted to ask with what kind of fuel these old cars drive.I know it’s a stupid question.But I hear from some people that these old cars still need leaded gasoline and others say normal gasoline is enough.Would be very grateful for an answer.

Hello, I recently got a Chevy Chevelle from 1970 in which a 1972 engine was installed. My question is now, how can I get out of such a 165 hp engine the original power of 1970, i.e. so about 300 hp (on the rear axle)? Is that possible with relatively little effort (about 2000 €)? I was thinking of another camshaft (so what like the CompCams PART #K12-234-2, www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/CamDetails.aspx?csid=84&sb=2 ), and a different suction bridge. care, a double pipe exhaust system, HEI distributor and it is a noble brock carburettor (500 CFM) installed. Are these things enough to get about 300 HP from this engine or what is still necessary? Should one start with the heads or the pistons etc also do? Thank you for your help Greeting Felix

Hello, I just put my pickup deeper the days and found out that one of the two leaf feathers is bent. why he was already shagging (though I thought of storing the rubber out). someone knows which company produces such a thing in Germany, or where I get some cheap ones. lmctruck also offers this, but I don’t want to know how much shipping from Amiland costs for it….
