Requiem for an SVX?

Thanks for the advice, Trevor, but it might be too late for me. Ever notice how, when someone is dying they improve for a few days right before death? I think that's what my SVX did. This morning...

Everything Running Fine Now...But I'm Not Sure WHY!

Just to let you all know, I worked on the car last weekend, and was able to test the Shift resister. It registered 0 ohms!. So did the "Small car Parts" resistor. So I removed the SCP aftermarket...

Ok, before I tore into things I decided to check for a fault indicator. Guess what? I found one, but it's not the one I expected. It's fault code 11 "Duty Solenoid A". If I'm looking at the manual...

Yep, I'm sure it's shifting between 4th and 3rd. When it's in the high RPM phase and I slip it into 3rd, there is no downshift. I too was hoping it was just the Torque Convertor, but no such luck.

Tranny shifts between 3rd and 4th Gear

Hi Chris,

I was thinking of using the braided stainless lines - that's probably my best bet. OK you guys talked me into trying it. It'll have to be outdoors, since my garage is located under part of the...

My SVX Died for Good!

:(
Looks like she's dead for good this time. The fuel line rusted through, and to replace it I'd have to rip off the exhaust system - which will break more than a couple of parts, drop the rear...

I played it in "C", with "A" at 440, but then when I sang it, I transposed it down to either "B-flat" or "A" (I forget).:rolleyes:

15th Anniversary Song

OK, it's partly plagerized, and mostly untrue, but I assembled a 15th anniversary SVX Song, and put it in my locker. It's the first time I've ever used my locker, so it took me a while to figure out...

I put a new MAF sensor in last year and it didn't help very much. I remember someone suggesting it was a bit of leakage in a fuel injector, so I'd thought about putting in a new set. Has anyone...

Thanks,
It's definitely on there tight enough, and it isn't moving on the shaft. I either put it on crooked, or it's out of balance. I'll get a chance to work on it tomorrow & let yo know.
