Re: 1994 Talon TSi
I'm almost starting to think that, I'll stick with it until I find a coil and a different spot to mount it. I think something just got wet, so we'll see.

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Well took it out for another drive today, and everything worked fine as far as the C.O.P. goes, it was missing a little at part throttle but was just fine at WOT.
Did a compression test and checked out at 145,140,145,140. @ 8.5:1 compression.

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Had a sneaky suspicion that something wasn't right after I thought I was doing "4 wheel drive burnouts", so I put the car on jackstands and put it through 1st gear and........I have a front-wheel drive talon. The tranny is supposed to have a welded center diff. So I am thinking the weld broke or its the transfer case, I am really at a loss here, any suggestions?

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
You can pull the xfer case and yank out the diff w/o having to yank the tranny off. I'd suggest starting with the xfer case, have it checked out and then go from there.

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Wel, the tranny is fucked, not sure what I'm going to do.
The tranny was junk when I bought it from MAP.
I'm kind of toying with the idea of letting it sit until I can save enough money for a Shep stage 3 w/ welded center diff...

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Picked up a GVR-4 tranny and t-case for this thing from Kevin_1G_Drummer the other day, probably going to be a couple weeks till it makes it in though, I'm going to be pretty busy.

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Well 95tsi and I got the tranny installed in just under 4 hours on friday night. All went well until we got about a mile down the road and an intercooler hose popped off and the car quit. We got it back on the best we could and went to start it....dead battery. Since we were about a mile from my parents house which is where we were working on it, we tried and tried to push start it, but to no avail. We finally ended up walking back and getting my dad and bro to give the car a jump to get the car back.
Was a busy weekend, went to back to the 50's saturday, then brought my dad to the twins game today for father's day, but still got to NAPA to get a new battery and some hose clamps, and she runs like a champ now!!
Thanks, again 95tsi for all the help and Kevin_1G_Drummer for the tranny.
Now I just need those injectors and some E85...

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
Glad to hear the tranny is working for you. Does it grind at all?

Re: 1994 Talon TSi
That sucks, but at least it doesn't pop out of gear. At least it didn't for me.
