On my way home tonight I got fuel and on my 12 mile drive home didn't have any problems. I tried taking the sharp corners fast and no issues.

However one odd thing happened at the pump. I had to squeeze the gas filler trigger about a dozen times before I filled up the tank. The gas would fill up ...

I'd advise you to replace the tank.
If he tank was so badly rusted, chances are the internal baffling is gone. If that's the case, once your gas level starts going down, when you take a curve all the gas would be pushed to one side, starving the fuel pump.
here's an easy way to test it: fill the ...

I recently had some issues with my '93 V6 MX-3 where it would stall/hesitate and die on me and the car was undriveable. We've found that the fuel tank was extremely rusty and the fuel pump wasn't working very well anymore.

Drained the gas out the bottom, then went in the top and scooped out as much ...

These are older posts from my local forum. We just did a basic swap and got it back on the road.

I forgot about this thread, but I thought I might as well update this post. :)

A couple weeks ago we began tearing the car apart and getting rid of all the rubbish that was put in the car.

This is a list of parts that is getting pulled out of the car and thrown away!!

Streetglow light-up brake ...

We finally figured out the problem, and it was fairly simple!

The gas tank is full of rust - I mean BAD! The previous owner let the car sit outside for 2 years without a gas cap, so the inside of the tank is all sludged up and it ruined the pump and clogged the filter. We drained the tank and dug ...

On my '93 MX3 I have the K8ZE engine and the distributor from the old engine.

I am trying to track down an odd problem with the car where it will stall out when driving. I was checking the timing and I noticed with the ignition on and the timing light hooked up when I turn the disty the timing ...

I think this week I will swap the original curved neck intake manifold onto the car and see what happens.

Compression numbers.



What should the K8 compression numbers be?
Will the J-spec engine have the same as US-Spec?

Hi guys, before I go any further trying to figure out why my freshly engine-swapped car won't run properly maybe you can shed some light on something for me.

I'm going to do a compression test on it today then start unhooking sensors.
