So I got my car running but when I take it out on test drives she bogs like the timing wont advance? Oh and I need help with air fuel mixtures! This car has been a pain for me for almost two months now and not having a drivable car is starting to get to me reallysad!
Need Timing Procedures for my S12 Please
[32:16] Turk66: does anyone really help anyone on here?
[36:44] Jordan: Yeah, but seach on the site first to make sure its not a question that has been answered a 1000 times
[40:34] Jordan: Personally I recommend starting a build thread so all your info on your car is in one place.
[41:14] Jordan: I see your having problems with timing and such, but if you put everthing on one thread it will be easier to get help.
Nevermind don't worry bout it I figured it out. That's pretty stupid that we have to search all these freakin threads just to get a question asked but whatever.
It's called trying to help yourself. Welcome to life.
I know the "search" tool is hard to use. Speaking of tools....
1. Kick it
2. Spit on it
3. Call it a whore
Works on Grandmothers and Girlfriends too.
Thanks guys! I know which site not to go to when I spend a month researching and shit on how to fix problems!
^ wut?
your question doesnt even make that much sense. seems like the timing doesnt advanced? have you even put a timing light on it? thats where i would start. is the rest of the ignition system in working order? fuel pressure where it should be? vacuum leaks?
and your asking for the timing procedure? for cam or ignition timing? ignition timing just hook a light up ,set it too like 15 to 20 bTDC. if you dont have a light advance it until it pings and then back it off a hair. thats what i do.
whats wrong with your air/fuel mixture? you have a a/f gauge? what are you running at? too lean? too rich?
Turk66 on 06:43:44 PM / 04-Nov-10Thanks guys! I know which site not to go to when I spend a month researching and shit on how to fix problems!
yeah I love how all these noobs come on here now and ask a dumbass fucking question and say things like "hey nobody ever helps anyone here"
Go get a fucking manual and figure it out. Don't expect us to be the communist s12 equivalent we can't send storm troopers to your house to help you unless you live in Cali. Srry.
There was a time when I joined where if you posted a thread it may take a few days to get one reply, shit it may take a really long time or you may never get a reply.
Jordan on 08:14:31 PM / 03-Nov-10I know the "search" tool is hard to use. Speaking of tools....
Guy isn't a tool, he's more like Lowes.
Maybe he is just a Democrat he expects someone else to do everything for him. (Midterm low blow)
If all else fails refer to my sig. "Deal with it"
yeah cause I don't do that at all. Fuck you dude! It was just a little info that's it but hey I happened to find it out anyway so your welcome!
OMG... You guys want some cheese to go with that whine?
Welcome to the club!
Am i too late?
Fuck you all, and Fuck this club! It's not like we don't drive the same car and maybe could help each other out but whatever! Fuck it!
If youre seriously crying because we didnt spoon feed you, you need to go get yourself a bottle to suck on.
Yea. It fuckin says that.
I mean, Its a club..
Its okay to ask if you have a problem from time to time..
But you cant just say, i got a problem with my timing, and my AFRs, fix it..
Ya know? Were not out to get you or anything.. but a simple search would make a world of a difference. Cant be rude, and expect everyone to fix everything for you.
well i have to agree with turk66 since it seams all you guys do is just help each other and no one else. im not trying to say you guys have to help us or you have a obligation to but it just seams you guys hang in your little packs and stay their it just kind of sucks was hoping the s12 community would be a bit more helpful at times!
The problem is that those procedure are already all over a lot of tech threads and build threads... the goal here is not to have 10,000 post about the same things... so if the thing you are searching for as never been answered before... hence the use of the search button first... then, we will be all over here to help you out.... but those procedure are in the FSM which is already alinked all over the place here... If you wan't us to help you, begin by helping yourself out.... as jordan suggested, start a build thread, and as you go, if you have problems with things, we'll help you out along the way, but your thread will not be useless like the one I'm posting here right now, look at david b build thread, there are over 85 pages of it and most things are repeted things, some things are new, but over all it's a "build" thread which shows the progress of one car, so asking some tech in there is good and doesn't create a bunch of useless thread that takes bandwith... that is all...
Pigpen on 02:01:31 AM / 14-Nov-10well i have to agree with turk66 since it seams all you guys do is just help each other and no one else. im not trying to say you guys have to help us or you have a obligation to but it just seams you guys hang in your little packs and stay their it just kind of sucks was hoping the s12 community would be a bit more helpful at times!
Wow our little packs? That has nothing to do with anything. You should go back and reread the first 3 posts. Jordan tried to help Turk but what was his response in the 3rd post?
Turk66 on 06:36:29 PM / 03-Nov-10Nevermind don't worry bout it I figured it out. That's pretty stupid that we have to search all these freakin threads just to get a question asked but whatever.
So not only was Turk's original question fairly vague but he basically throws a tantrum when told to do a brief search to see if that yields any results. It was more or less his tone of "I want help now and I don't wanna search" that got him the reactions that he did. There have been times in the past I have asked tech questions that either took some time to get responses or got no responses at all. If he had took some initiative by searching and had a little patience with a less condescending tone he would have gotten a much different response from cs12 members.
Turk66 on 04:58:10 AM / 06-Nov-10Fuck you all, and Fuck this club! It's not like we don't drive the same car and maybe could help each other out but whatever! Fuck it!

i bought that car because i know that car and there is no other silvia like it
before you buy a car you do some research about the car so you don't go crying te first problem you have
a club is a club not a fucking encyclopedia
