Ahhhh....the wonders of running a Supercharge with no oil........

Just a guess, but probably right. And I'll bet it was squealing protest for a LONG time.

I agree with Bill. There had to be PLENTY of warning before it even got close to that.

The car is fixed now, and I have been running it for the past two days. It exhibited horrendous idle problems at first -- stalling, puking, bogging, etc. It also seemed to overheat.

After a new set of wires, more coolant and a little more tinkering it only idles bad for the first two minutes of start-up. I am thinking it is because of the air induction system I added is throwing off the air cleaner temp sensor. The stock box has all these recesses that hold air. I am thinking that the MAF sensor has to get used to the change also.

When you are underway and squeeze the happy pedal, things happen! Nice noise, too -- lots of blower whine.

Thanks for the tips. THis club is a WINNER!!
