Just filled up with E85. Only 385 gallons left in the tank at the filling station. I tried to reserve my 9 gallons for tomorrow. LOL One more day of Sun before the hurricane messes everything up.

Damn, there I was rejoicing that it didn't go south towards me.
If it makes it that far up I hope it chills the **** out before it reaches you |

Ugg, threw another TPMS sensor off the band due to the band breaking. I am done with those pieces of crap. They are all coming off my car today. I'll just deal with the TPMS light. I hate those things. Shop didn't want to do it because they were booked up. I then had to convince them otherwise.

have you seen where people just put them inside some capped PVC pipe with an air valve on it?

Car rode smooth as silk. That stinkin TPMS light can flash all it wants to. I had actually slung 2 off the bands. So, I drove the car 2 days total. I have just been having a dang good time driving it. LOL
|
The TPMS are probably malfunctioning and falling off because you drive too slow :twocents:

Does anyone know if I get the Ecutek Bluetooth dongle can I see all 4 wheel speed sensors and log them. When my tires are a touch cold the car will wiggle in the back end back and forth under hard acceleration. I need to check and see if both rear wheel speed sensors are reporting the same speed to ensure the diff is locked up all the way. If they are not, I will need to tighten up the clutch packs. My current OS Giken 1.5 way is setup for stock power as all of them are from the factory.

The more I think about it I think I am going to need it retuned. The tires were hot today when this happened. I had been driving for 45min. to an hour. It doesn't happen going straight. I happens on my favorite right turn on my way home. 60mph and up sweeper. When I eased back on the throttle I could feel the rear slipping so I just held it there. Then she wiggled a bit and hooked up. Ugg. More investigation is needed. I will need to make a few phone calls. OS Giken LSD's are not easy to setup. They have several adjustments that can be made.

Another thing to consider is that you have been ripping on those tires since you got the car back. Granted you don't track your car however the inside of your rear tires may be wearing and therefore you don't have the same traction on curves as you do in straights. This is very common at the track as your tires fall off. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |
Thanks Hotrodz. I will drive it some more and play with the tire pressures. Come to think of it, I need to check them anyway since I had all the TPMS sensors removed. They may have set them to 35psi. I prefer them to be around 32 when cold. I have been having one hell of a good time. LOL
|
You don't want them more than 36 psi hot. 34 to 36 is the sweet spot!

Well, I can't say I haven't blown the tires off anymore. I did this morning getting on the interstate. Too much throttle too quick just lit them up. LMAO. I have found the limit in 2nd on cold tires. It was 70 deg. For folks that don't know, you don't just floor the go pedal in a turbo car. You roll into the throttle. That is why I struggle with a NA car so much. My brain and foot are programmed for a turbo car because that is normally what I drive. Been that way since 1992.
