92 rocky how do i get codes off the engine light?

i get 24 mpg on my 1990 usa rocky 1.6 liter gas. it has the cat removed and fuel line magnets(gave me a measured 2 mpg) ngk iridium plugs

other than that its stock 230,000 miles with 215/75/15 tires

you guys ever consider using silicon shock fluid in those? it comes in weights up to 10,000

IMO its like most things Feroza - there are small gains available but you have to work hard to get them.

nice duct tape!!

i did try that link before when i did a search here but i never got a reply back from them.
i was hoping to get some real world feedback on a cam

the silicon couplers do seem to have a fair bit of flex from what i have seen so far

some of my other ideas

i'd appreciate specs thanks. if its a high rpm cam i may not try to get it like i had originally though. i logged on to another charade applause forum to try and get a detom cam or a applause cam......

anyone used one on the rocky/feroza ?

update for all you nay sayers. check the pics ,this is off my brothers car ,its a cheap ebay cold air intake. ya i know it is not clearing the coolant resevoir but thats a easy fix.
it will go lots closer to the throttle body anyway.

Now those are interesting results........ Prompted me to do some quick checks. Using a 14 Channel "ETAS" data acquisition system and J type thermocouples. Readings taken whilst driving at a constant(ish) 80KPH on the freeway after allowing the vehicle to fully warm up. Ambient 35C Air temperature ...

so basically the ebay kit is not a well thought out one.
thanks guys

sweet! you should put me a kit together.

I can see the alternator ! and the block water inlet. Does it have power steer or is it just removed whilst your working on it ? Have you measured the inlet air temp behind the headlight when driving and then at the firewall ? no i thought i mentioned it has no a/c or power steering already. i ...

i was going of of Doug's rocky for some of my inspiration too. if it works for him on the hot side of the engine bay it oughtta work for me on the cold side http://www.dougfreeze.com/rocky/forsale/pages/IMG_7487_JPG.htm http://www.dougfreeze.com/rocky/forsale/pages/IMG_7489_JPG.htm http://www ...

try to answer the questions...... murcods question... 1) the bonnnet or hood as we cal it over here wil close . the 180 "bling pipe" will bend down away from the t/b putting the air filter in the corner or the engine bay on the intake side. the piping is 3.5" diameter HotFourOK 2)if i did fab up a ...

heater core frozen solid this morning Ouch - that doesn't sound like fun at all. Couple of Q's though... You do know that the "black box" that sits on top of the rocker cover is responsible for a significant increase in mid range torque ? The power and torque curves in the manual clearly show this ...

not that i need it thing time of year. heater core frozen solid this morning

ya if you got something handy let me know. we can trade for spal fan shippping

No its the load from a big thermo switching on at idle that can cause a stall - especially when you have headlights etc on. This valve is used on aicon equipped roza's and adds just enough extra air ( its adjustable ) that when the A/C systems on it maintains the idle speed. Of course in this ...

okay thanks. the stock is a puller fan. i was thinking about the thermo switch froma applause to turn the fan on
little lost on the idle up thing as mine idles up right now when cold but that just runs the clutch fan faster and cools more lol

here a decent deal on a spal fan http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/16-SPAL-ELECTRIC-PULLER-FAN-2360CFM-SPAL-30102120_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33600QQihZ020QQitemZ300188971201QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW i am also curious about the appluase thermo switches i see mentioned in some of the old threads and ...

yep yep i hear ya. i did look at those SPAL fans on summit. you machined the viscous hub? to make room for an electric? mine just unbolts. i got my factory air box eliminated and next up it the clutch fan. with all the negetive response in the flywheel thead about getting an electic fan i figured ...

hey guys i did a search but i am not sure what to get. i need to ditch my locked clutch fan asap
i was looking at these cheapos on ebay

I think he's got what we call a Feroza here.... the old change the model name game. correct its a u.s. rocky same as the feroza you guys have. F70 you have the rocky ones? i wonder if they are the same? Might Mouse ,i found a possoble one in USA but its on the other side of the country and i am ...

anyone have a spare to sell? busted mine out couple days ago

the flywheel has kinetic energy. heavier flywheel can store up more(but it take longer) but a lighter one can store/release energy faster

slight horse power gain. less weight on the drivetrain means more horse power. so what if its a slight gain?? Please explain how this is possible. It's at odds with my understanding of how HP is generated. Steve. it more about slight loss of power thought drive train weight.so i stand corrected its ...
