Go to a trusted autoparts store and have the code read. Most likely it will be a wheel speed sensor. Is the tire pressure low light on?

Thanks Bubbletop I think I'm going to build a set up similar to yours only with an offset ground crank and higher 9's compression wise.

I'm about 20 Minuets from Benton IL I would be more than happy to pick them up and ship them for you PM me if you haven't gotten anybody. Willy

Yeah Whale oil aint gonna be no help. The bad part is that all happened in a 25 mile drive home. PM sent

So I disassembled the posi and it is destroyed. One side gear (driver side) has almost all the teeth ground off the passenger side has about 5 teen broken off and some ground down. The spider gears have one to four teeth shucked off each one of them:eek:and both axle bearing outer raced somehow...

Yes I did. I will probably pull the diff out tomorrow and inspect it just to make sure nothing is wrong internally.

Hahaha Whale sperm huh? Well I put some additive in did about 20 minuets of figure 8's and it did not help at all. When I put it in I dipped my finger in the gear oil level was good, but there was an awful lot of metallic in the fluid. Thanks for the help Willy

Thanks guys, I will put some more posi fluid in her tomorrow and do some figure 8's and see what that does. Hopefully this is an easy fix i really don't want to pull the diff out for the umpteenth time. Thanks for the advice Willy

Yes I did My first thought that it was just some chatter so I took it out did some figure 8's and did not help it sounds more like there is something binding up and releasing it makes me cringe whenever I take a turn and hear it.

Hay guys having some trouble with rear diff in my Bel air. Originally a 3.36 open that I sacrificed to the horsepower gods long ago. After going through another open diff I wised up and got a posi unit. Used but in good shape clutches looked good took it apart cleaned and lubed everything and it...

A friend of mine has used the beads on his jeep with 38 12.5 15 tires on it with very good results. Willy

Thanks for the replies guys, I was looking to run an iron head to try and keep costs down I was thinking along the lines of Darts iron eagle 210 seems to me people have noting but good to say about them and they seem like a good head for the money. So shot for about 10 to 1 with iron heads and...

Hay everybody, I have a 400 block that I was looking to build up. Shooting for around 450 hp and 500 tq. I currently have the block a stock crank .030 over forged flat top speed pro pistons and a comp XE274H cam. Anything and everything is open to suggestion. Thanks in advance Willy:beerbang

Quickshift, I am far from a technical expert and am just as puzzled as you are about that, but it would seem to me that you would have to bring mass into the equation. One car is using most of its power to push its own mass around the track and only has a small amount of power to push (espically...

Basicly the way I understand it is that the wind resistance gets divided among the # of cars running nose to tail, so with two cars it gets divided in half, compared to one quarter with for cars, meaning that 2 cars together have half the wind resistance of one car reduced where as 4 cars have...
