LSX454 swapped 95 BASS burb.

Little lower, little cooler, bigger sounds.
Have a couple times.
But, it was 2 different ones.
One before the stereo, and one after.
Both within like 100# of each other.
One of them was definitely wrong lol.

I'll have to do so again.
 
I swear every time I weigh this it's a couple hundred different :dunno:

But, weighed yesterday, and the scale seems messed up according to the lady running it.

But when you add the front and rear numbers, it's off from the total she said.

I'm going to see if I can go back through pics and find it, but I'm almost positive it was 65-66+ last time...?
But, estimating the #1000 of stereo, added to the AI searched stock numbers, this should be about right I guess.

No scale is 100% accurate.
You can almost never replicate the same number at the same location within an hour.
Weigh stations give you a couple of hundred pounds leeway for that reason
 
At a gravel yard or transfer station, the scale is just supposed to find the differences, like how much you hauled in or out.
 
I was at the city dump. So :dunno:

There's a place across the river that's a private scale, but it's a business that's closed at night.
So it's easy to just drive across the open scale.
That one seems way different than the dump scale.

I think the dump scale is supposed to be calibrated and checked for EPA and chit, but I'm not sure about that.

Still they don't need to be that accurate down the lb
 
Even off roads!IMG_20260917_115012895_HDR.jpg

Lol, wasn't getting any farther than that though.
Now I gotta drive it around in the rain to clean some chit up, then wash underneath.

Never even dawned on me when I was trying to get it out of the way that I have a place it could go in the street :doah:
Lol.
 
Well... She looks good in the rain.
But unfortunately, it spent its first night outside at my place in like 2-3 years.

After getting it out of the yard yesterday, I headed to the gas station, figuring some of the water on the road would wash the little bit of dirt/mud off some.
Hit a puddle since there was a car next to me and it ended up being much deeper than I thought.
Absolutely douched the whole thing Including the engine bay.
Made it about a block and all hell broke loose.
Dieing, backfiring, spitting/sputtering, making grindy noises, then quit.
Being on a 4 lane with traffic a and no where to pull off, I started it back up, and managed to limp it along like that to get to a side street.
I was alone and 3 blocks from the shop, so tried to limp it there.
Probably shouldn't have, but I was on my way to work when it happened and on a time crunch.
Hope like hell I didn't hurt it.
Half a block from the shop, it came out of it. Soni chocked it up to water in the air filter and drove towards my house quick.
And it did it again a block away.
Almost didn't restart. So it stayed home when I got there.

Now, it started and ran fine today. No new sounds, nothing different than normal.
But it's in the shop now, and I plan to go through all the electrical plugs, check for water, and re- dielectric grease them all.
They already have a generous amount in all of them... But SOMETHING got wet :dunno:

Key places for me to start are the crank and cam signals, along with where they meet the ECU.
Because I had no RPM signal, and it said ERROR in that spot on the handheld when it was messed up.
