Hey all, was hoping to come back in to see what's up and also track down a few messages-- hope everyone is well! Can a mod help me out with getting access to my account? I did 'forgot password' but it's not sending me an email. For anyone that needs a reminder: 1998 Monte Carlo z34 that was wrecked and sent to the scrapyard a couple years after I sold it in 2009 2006 Monte Carlo SS that I sold in 2012. Last I heard the buyer was in Kansas City. Hoping it will turn up one day. 2012 Camaro SS 45th Anniversary edition. Bought new, currently sitting at 11K miles. (Wife has had a 2013 Cruze LT, sold to buy a 2015.5 Volvo XC60 Polestar when our 2nd boy was born)

You were right it took out a chunk of the sensor without the sensor throwing a code. Plus the teeth were bent. 1 of the shortest videos I watched on the issue had a nice simple trick: If you crank and there's no rpm, you can bet it's the crank sensor. Otherwise there will be some rpm registered.

How many miles are on the engine? I think the bottom end is the same between '93 and '96. If the miles are low enough I might be interested in the LQ1 in the future should you be looking to get rid of it.

Very cool that you got her running! Congrats man! Please tell me that you kept those original plug wires. Hopefully the motor will give you years of enjoyment. I really want it to stay with the car if at all possible. The best thing for that car is for it to get moving!

Welp, got the Z34 running. Still has some issues, for some reason the tach does not work and the engine does not want to rev up. When you attempt to open the throttle all the way it acts like the rev limiter is stopping it from revving up. It’s also either running lean or leaking raw fuel into one or several cyls because the converter is getting hot. I suspect it’s going to need fuel injectors. The engine noise that you hear in the video cleared up after it ran for a little while. Especially after I changed the oil.

Aaaaaannnnd we have a willing donor…

You shut your whore mouth when men are talking!

Needs more L67.
