After replacing the o2 sensor everything went back to normal.


    the car runs fine now... pretty sure the passenger side o2 was the main issue.

    How did you get so much water?

    Congrats on fixing it too...

    no idea...I am the 2nd owner of the car and the person who did the exhaust and long tubes had the passenger side o2 connection hanging below the frame...im sure one puddle was all it took because it was completely exposed. I rewired everything and tucked it in so "hopefully" it wont happen again. If it wasnt water, a speed bump probably would have just ripped the wire off...

    10296 HV/HO. If you get this pump run it with a truck filter and you can add 6 qrts of oil.

    Removed 5 of 8 pistons, which was a lot easier than I thought it would be. The book "Rebuilding LS series engines" has been helpful so far.

    Removed all 5 main caps, all pistons/rods but two. For some reason I can't really get to one bolt on each of the last connecting rods. I can put a wrench on it but it is on too tight to do and real good. A socket won't fit either. I sprayed some liquid wrench on the bolts, hopefully that does some good by morning.

    I'm in the middle of doing a write up right now. Waiting for the tranny to get back from the shop to finish up. How soon do you need it? The write up should be done within the month.

    I should have the transmission back from the shop possibly Friday, so I may be able to do the write up this weekend. Otherwise it'll probably be next weekend. It'll cover tranny removal, clutch replacement, master cylinder and slave cylinder replacement, speed bleeder installation, and reassembly.
