3800 leak out of the snout of the s/c?

[syP]

Given it is the oil leaking out of it...

umm.. i dunno how to ask, but WHY?

I have a MPS on there and there is a hole in the middle of the MPS. Is a screw supposed to go in there?

You should have gotten a plastic christmas tree clip. The end of a stock snout has a breather nut on there. When installing an aftermarket pulley system, you can no longer use the nut so they give you a clip. Its suppose to allow excess gas pressure to be realeased, but no fluid should be coming out. I would get a clip for it, possibly lowes, and check your snout fluid level.

 

[syP]

hmmm know what the clip is calleD?

 

[98 TGP TOY]

I think its a pretty common clip. Same type that hold your door panels on. Looks like a christmas tree. Go check out lowes and youll know what im talking about. I cant find a good pic of one.

 

[syP]

oh... same ones that hold he lower dash to the upper dash which is below the steering wheel?

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Yea its the same type, i dont know if its the same size though. You could email ZZP and ask them to send you the ones they send out with their MPS's for a couple bucks...

 

[syP]

that will work in the intense one as well?

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Yea, since intense just directly copied ZZP.....um...i mean...they just used similar methods of designing their system as ZZP.


But seriously...the clip presses into the snout. So unless the intense unit has caused damage to the hole on the snout, it should work.

 

[syP]

yea... now come to think of it... i did have that, but it wouldnt fit or somethin..

You got AIM or sumthin so we can chat easier? or MSN?

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Go to the intense website, and you can see the clip im talking about. You can get it from intense if you want also.

 

[98 TGP TOY]

I dont like getting on AIM...i have wierd people trying to talk to me, claiming to be my friends for the past couple years.....

That pic should solve the problem...eh?

 

[syP]

1 GM barbed retainer

assuming that is it

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Better be...otherwise we have caught intense on another lie

 

[syP]

do you know the TB part number... or is it called the Multiport Fuel Injection throttle body seal (gasket)


is that it?

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Just posted it for you...yea

 

[zeez gtp]

just go to autozone and get a x-mas tree clip there. it doesn't have to be from intense.

 

[syP]

heh its cool zoomer is sending one out asap

 

[dole21]

hmm...its not sitting on an angle is it?

 

[syP]

nope
