ok,this is complicated sort of,but bare with me for a sec
my friend has a 90 SC with a 5 speed, it expiereinced many major malfuntions wich led to its utterbreakdown. well over the past 2 months we have repaired it back to runnin condition now.heres is a list of what we replaced
harmonic balancer (got the new billet steel one)
oil pump
water pump
power steering pump
power steering lines (all)
solid motor mounts
oil pan
timing chain and gears
cam sensor
crank sensor
underdrive pulleys (no increase on SC yet, stock pulley there)
valve cover gasket ( IC tube side)
all other corresponding gaskets and seals for everything else listed
intercooler tube tape
there are other newer items on the car but have been there 4 months now.
now here is the dillema, after carefully assembling everything the car ran but the RPM gets spastic at WOT, what i mean is that when you floor it it wants to seriously hesitate. now i know this sounds like it could be many things but heres what i have it down to.....
when the car finally broke down the harmonic balancer twisted apart and bent the crank sensor ring that mounts up to it, well upon reassembly we tried to reshape it how it was and it does look pretty good, but it probably is not perfect on a gauge thing. well i know that the book says to space the sensor a matchbooks thickness apart from the ring that passes through there upon turning the motor we noticed that it rubbed slightly, but we had a ols sensor from another SC it it appeared that it was worn down from rubbin as well. so my question is ....does the crank ring have to be perfect or is this not a precise sensor? does it have a range? wahts the out of round limit on the crank ring? is this even causin the misfire's and hesitation or is it somethin else?
please help me, all we want is to make this beast run right!!!!!!
