well, it was a little jumpy at low rpm's mostly it would just kill, but it was allways jerky kinda. After the IAC and fixing the alternator problem, Boost leaks, and a new intake, my idle is pretty good. I'm still thinking about having the timing checked. So Whats next everyone? Exhaust? or should I replace the PS Rack? Rear swaybar?

Well if your rack is leaking I'd sa that would be the next thing to hit. Safety before performance you know?

Definitaly the ps if its leaking any fluid.... if you dont the first time it locks up while turning a coner you would wish you would have fixed it sooner.

Exactly. Just what I said safety before performance. And steering DEFINATELY falls under safety as well as performance

I had a 89 ranger that leaked fluid and twice when it was really low the truck stalled turning right and locked the steering wheel... that sucked! and the only thing the two times had in common was the lack of ps fluid..... dont know why it stalled but it was a little scary the first time it happened but luckly i was only doing like 10 miles an hour.

I would really like to have someone that knows alot about these cars to take a look at it. Archer Racing is about 4 hrs away from me, but work schedule conflicts with getting there. Does anyone live in Minnesota, Twin Cities area, that knows about 1g eclipses that would be willing to give it a once over?
