KAOS_3.0
Hard-core CEG'er
so I got the head gaskets on my 3.0, in the car, after I swapped it into the coug and they went out on me. all of that is fabulous and I drove the car around the block today and it's epic fast with all the cats gutted and the 05 UIM on there. only problem is, now the damn manifolds are getting hot enough to glow again. not at the elbows at the bottom of them like when Dom had me mis-wire my ignition signal connection, but right at the head. the back seems to be a little brighter, but I'm chalking that up to it just being darker back there. I'm pretty sure I got the plug wires on correctly too, as I numbered the wired before I took them off and the coil pack is also numbered.
any input guys? when I timed the engine, I followed all the proper instructions and even counted the teeth between timing marks to make sure everything was right. the trigger wheel is also on correctly as I scored it where the key way was before taking it off.
the only code I'm throwing is p1506, which I seem to remember being IAC overspeed error, which would make sense, because the 05 UIM currently has a 2.5 litre IAC on it (it's adapted with epoxy, the paper gasket, and ultrablack going to the gasket on the uim, so no, it's not leaking) as a patch till I can find the 05 one in storage. that shouldnt cause what I'm experiencing though, so I'm at a loss. it would trip a code if the mil eliminators where malfunctioning wouldnt it? or could they be causing some insane air/fuel issue? I havent tripped any air fuel or o2 related codes yet?
any ideas guys?
thanks in advance for any advice, it will be greatly appreciated!
