Never reuse any gasket
any one know a good place to order a gasket set from?
felpro?
if ur gonna get new internals, you might as well go with the high compression wiesco pistons that daftart.com sells...you will have SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much more power
and need higher octane gas. But if that's not a problem...I'd say go for it.Quote:

Tried my code reader but all I get is error. Cant link to the computer. I check wiring again, took it for another ride and now it wont stay idleing. WOW! I think I answered my own problem. What you guys think?
shoot some ideas at me

possible failure of one of the sensors? map, maf, tps, oxy?
if it doesnt stay idling then it is most likely a sensor, when i got water in my engine, my tps got damaged and now when i accelerate and hit about 3100 rpm the engine hesitates for a second and sometimes throws a CEL, it goes away when i drive it 3 or 4 different times, ive been too lazy to replace that tps sensor, its relitavely cheap, about 25 bucks
it might be the timing to like you said
