What the.
HP - 192.9 at the wheels
TQ - 250.3 ft/lb at the wheels
Before with just the Wynjammer it was getting:
HP - 180.1 at the wheels
TQ - 224.3 ft/lb at the rear wheels
I don't understand... Were you at the same dyno both times?
How can it pick up only 12hp and 25ish torque?
Please explain.

I'm not sure if I'm done yet or not either Chris.
When they said in Dec. that it was running rich & I could drive it till I got it fixed (the crankshaft position sensor issue) I did. Little did I know it was running so rich that gas seeped past the rings. It never dawned on me to check the oil... so guess what - when they finally tuned it & ran it up to 5000 rpm. 4 or 5 times a "lifter ticking" or exhaust leak at the collector flange got louder. I thought it was an exhaust leak because a month ago I had the trans rebuilt, month later you're supposed to retorque the bolts on the exhaust.
It wasn't that, it's probably a connecting rod bearing thats chewed because of the gas in the oil. It keeps the oil from sticking to the bearings etc. So it needs to get the engine pulled etc. & see whats what. Oh I love my life at times.
So I'm looking for a replacement engine ugh, I noticed it didn't seem to make the power it should have & seemed to be lagging/working against itself to make the power it did.
^That^ is making it difficult to continue at times.

Oh i heard already, its pretty bunk......theres no snow on the roads around here anyways at least so toms not missing anything at least.......
Oh ya, so noticed there was a bit of damage from the love tap when i was at the carwash today, right at the carrier bolt mounts they got pushed in about a mm or two, just enough to chip some paint!....But thats nothing compared to your issue, hopefully can find a good and easy fix to the proble
