    No power at wide open throttle

    Thought I'd post one last update. I installed a piece of steel wool between the two non-foulers, which took care of the CEL. I even was able to pass my OBD emissions test with all monitors set.

    I do have two installed, one is drilled out to just slightly larger than the sensor head so it fits inside, the other in unmodified with the small hole. Im hoping the steel wool will "stabilize" the amount of exhaust going in

    No power at wide open throttle

    Thought I would update this since I haven't in months. The CEL did eventually come on. I installed the anti foulers but the still have a check engine light. I've read that adding steel wool between them can help so I'll try that and update later

    No power at wide open throttle

    No codes yet after about 75 miles. Still to early to tell on fuel econony, but i was getting about 8-10 highway mpg just before gutting it. Ill update once ive driven a bit farther. On a side note the spark plug non-fouler mod works great. I had a ford escort that i put a full length header on...

    No power at wide open throttle

    Never had any misfires or even a cel with the vehicle. Cooant gauge stays steady right in the middle. Plugs are AC Delco iridiums. My best guess is that for the first 2 years I owned it, 90% of my driving was 1.5 miles to and from work, likely it almost never got up to operating temperature

    No power at wide open throttle

    Just a last update, took the cat off today, looked pretty bad on the front side as seen in the picture. I knocked the guts out, bolted it back up(temporary of course...), and she runs like new.

    No power at wide open throttle

    @Ziggy: Okay i misunderstood. Everything feels normal under light acceleration, its just WOT when i have the problem. It does feel similar to when there is a plugged cat, except the rpms just stay steady, no misfiring or backfiring. @Mooseman: ill give it a try, but the pcm has the latest...

    No power at wide open throttle

    @HARDTRAILZ: Fluid looks great, almost like new @Ziggy: Probably missed it due to my run on sentences, but i did try this with no change

    No power at wide open throttle

    Hello everyone, looking for some help here. I have an 02 trailblazer with an issue that has been ocuring over the last few weeks. At WOT, the vehicle has a significant loss of power at 40mph. It will accelerate rather slowly up to 40, then the speed will just hang there until i let off the gas...

    Front Park fuse #37 keeps blowing after LED switchback install

    Both bulbs work like they should when I put them in the brake sockets

    Front Park fuse #37 keeps blowing after LED switchback install

    I'll test them out on my brake light sockets since I already modded them to work with standard bulbs

    Front Park fuse #37 keeps blowing after LED switchback install

    I checked continuity between all 3 pins and the internal tabs and I get the same result with both. I didn't bench test the bulbs however. Stock bulbs work as usual with either socket. Bulbs were put in both ways. As I said both white and amber come on for turns with no parking function

    Front Park fuse #37 keeps blowing after LED switchback install

    Looks like these sockets are the SRCK type as well. Same result, blows fuse 37 and white and amber flash at the same time
