have a question, this guy is trying to sell me a 93 coupe but he claims the crank is blown, but its drivable turns off a lot but he still drives it. I thought when your crank is blown its not drivable at all. i was thinking it's a blown head. Also another ? he took off the mass air meter would that have caused a problem any info would help thanx xvr [Smile]

If he took the mass air meter off and is trying to drive it then yeah, it will run like hell

I think your computer won't be able to measure how much air will come in. In my case It runs better with the MAF disconnected.
