17882- is what I should have probably ordered but I only drive ~3k a year so I jerry rigged it lol red is what I replaced with the amazon tube. I also reused the clamps. blue piece was starting to crack the end of the red where they come together & when I was looking at my air filter it just...

most likely unmetered air entering your system... or at least that seems to always be where my problems lead me back to with my '92. Check your lines for condition & routing following the sticker on the underside of the hood. Before replacing most of mine were cracked, or not fitting snugly on...

Hitting low 90's here - seems like the truck is running more sluggish than usual & the speedo is doing that thing where it says I'm doing 70 in a 30. Is there anything you do to make your rigs summer ready?

it should be under your hood but this may help https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/3fe-vac-hose-help-real-time.418001/

I'd check all the vacuum lines & routing- a bunch of mine were cracked on the underside. Though because you're de smogged you've got about 80% less to replace. could also be fuel filter/ pump? I have yet to do those on mine.

was thinking the same thing- mine was wandering at ignition & after replacing all the vac lines & made sure they matched the map under the hood it sounded like a slightly less beat up 3fe

click your name in the upper left & then signature to add your specs- it'll come in with every post you make

for anyone curious I'm running the VC120 on my '92 & just passed the smog exam here in California without issue

This isn't the guy you want to argue about 3FEs with.... @jonheld is the person's replies you look for when scanning the threads when something is going on with your rig.

I replaced them over the summer, but I'll check on them again. I haven't messed with the timing or the valves at all.

If you're worried about the temps under the hood, you can pick up @Outsane 's hood risers off his store- SolveFunction

Have you looked into SUPs? They take up a less real estate in the garage are easier to fish from & you both could get one and have one dog on board with you. or tandem & tow your dogs.

the stockton/ sac area craigslist pages have been pretty empty as far as cruiser stuff goes so if they're dumb enough to post it in the same area I think they'll be pretty easy to spot.

mine is the same way, almost runs better when the light was on- not sure if the engine is running rich when the light is on? I've never seen anyone else with a 3FE and it sounds miles better from when I bought the truck so I just figured that's what it sounds like.

charcoal can was super easy for me- and I haven't done 90% of what you've done to your rebuild. mine was hissing for like 20 seconds when I gassed up. I'd get some big pipe clamps or metal zip ties because I've replaced my plastic ones x2 now in about 2 years. always good to see another 2 tone...
