oops! Yep, $18200. I just updated the post. Thx.

$18,200 Chevy 350 V8 conversion. This one runs strong! My retired mechanic neighbor pulled the cam cover off when we were installing the carburetor and he lit up over how clean the oil was - clear amber. Good compression. No drips. Chevy 400 Turbo automatic transmission. 4spd. Shifts smooth...

I've read that low fluid can cause this intermittently. Mine registers on the 'cold' line of the dipstick when the engine is warm so I think it's at least a little low. Can I pour transmission fluid directly into the dipstick tube? I'm assuming so but wanna be sure.

Not sure if temperature has anything to do with it, as I'm in SoCal but my 89 just stopped going into reverse this morning on a rare rainy day. Just out of the blue no reverse and I'm begin told that my tranny is out.

My EFI relay is connected, I picked up another at Spector yesterday in case that is the issue. The non-OEM I think is not connected to anything related to the EFI. Might even be part of the car alarm that was installed before me. I also picked up the EFI circuit opening relay that goes in the...

I have a good working main computer for an FJ62 I bought and don't need. I paid $250, selling for half that at $125. I misdiagnosed my issue and put my original one back in. Now I don't need this. FJ62 ECU by Murphy posted Dec 15, 2016 at 1:24 PM

Have you got the front valance in good shape? Body piece under the grill.

It wasn't the ECM. I replaced it, still happened. But I think I've found the problem after TLC pointed me to it. The EFI Circuit Opening Relay. I found it hacked up...of the 5 wires going into it's base, 1 goes to the battery, 1 is a ground, 1 is going into a bundle of other wires and the...

Everyone is now thinking I need a new ECM (computer head). It sparks sparks, holds pressure, etc...just randomly once in awhile doesn't open all of the injectors.

I think we have different problems. Mine isn't related to temperature. It happens when it's cold and when it's warm. Happens when it's been sitting awhile and while I am driving. It only happens once every few weeks. Take it to the shop and runs perfect for the mechanic for days so he can't...
