Running!!! - With Qwuirks... Reply #137 – August 06, 2007, 11:56:13 PM yea, thats what i did.I also just tested the battery voltage and it's at it normal 12.5'ish yet it's still doing the small but noticeable drain thing...So back to short hunting *sigh* Quote Selected

Running!!! - With Qwuirks... Reply #139 – August 07, 2007, 12:04:19 AM Not that i know of, My trunk light and glove compartment light are acting VERY touchy though, Need to keep an eye on them.While they are on, Any slight 'lil movment to them will make them shut off or flicker~bad contacts or just need the bulbs replaced i assume.I'm not sure where the light shut off switch for the trunk light is though, Maybe it's being lame and keeping the trunk light on while it's closed... more stuff to look into >.<Thanks for the heads up :hick: Quote Selected
Running!!! - With Qwuirks... Reply #140 – August 07, 2007, 12:08:52 AM Take out the bulbs... thats the easy fix Quote Selected
Running!!! - With Qwuirks... Reply #141 – August 07, 2007, 11:34:17 AM Get yourself a test light. Take the negative battery cable off the battery. Hook the light between the cable and the battery terminal.If it lights, you have drain. Disconnect and isolate stuff until the light goes out. Quote Selected

Running!!! - With Qwuirks... Reply #144 – August 17, 2007, 10:23:02 PM I went out and ran some codes:Key on ignition off:21 "O" - Cooling Temperature sensor out of specified range or ECT out of rangeRunning i got this:41 "R" - HEGO (HO2S) sensor signal out of range / always leanAnd then she started smoking like crazy again... And from both sides of the engine now!!!After reading through haynes, The area where the smoke is coming from just happens to be the same area as the oxygen sensors!!So looks like i need to go pick up an ECT sensor, And a couple Oxy Sensors.I really hope this fixes the smoking/overheating...**Oh, And im running a very steady 42 PSI fuel pressure at the schrader valve.

You do not have HeatedEGO's. You have "One wire" EGO's.QuoteAnd then she started smoking like crazy again...
