Did you have your cruise on?

This does just happen in DSMs. Ask Rabe.

Cruise has taken 2 out for me. (dsm's).

I remember seeing that once, right after he tried keeping up with me running 28 pounds of boost on pump gas. Doh.

Cruise destroys DSMs

I use my cruise, and have used it for over eight years on the same car same engine, but I do have big rods sitting under 2G pistons :-) 1990 stock rods anyway.

Neat. You better be knocking on wood right now. Infact, get a wood dash-inlay. You will need that.

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

wait... can someone explain to me why cruise takes them out?

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

it actually turns into a deisel and the computer adds or subtracts fuel depending on load, it does nothing to the throttle. maybe.

Yeah, cruise sucks!

Actually the only thing it controls is the throttle. Hence the box that is attached to the throttle cables known as the cruise unit. The only way I could see cruise causing engine problems is by pushing in the clutch and the engine not releasing the cruise hold. This is not the cruise control's fault necc. There is a switch on your clutch pedal that disengages the cruise. Also, if your motor can't handle a second of rev-limit or high rpms....it was probably on it's way out anyways.

Inside joke. Its just coincidence that so many have went under low load/cruise conditions.
Both of mine were oiling related (cruise=music=loud=not paying attention to motor).

You have a radio in your car!

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

I have a full audio system and will have A/C before it runs.

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

no i did not have my cruise on

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

damn, I'm not gonna be using my cruise anymore. I have enough problems as it is.

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

I have no cruise or radio! :)

Re: How did this hole get here??
 

I have no cruise or airbags. I was feeling horny one night so i decided to molest my steering wheel. Now i have a hole in the center of my steering wheel and my cruise is not hooked up and i have no airbag. DAMN THESE HORMONES!!!!
