G35 Coupe Aluminum Pedal Install
I purchased the Infiniti aluminum pedal set from Grubbs Infiniti in Dallas over the phone from Danny our FX45 salesmen. I believe Danny said these pedals are the ones used in the FX45. After examining them, I think he’s probably right because the dead pedal is narrower and sits up higher than either the standard G35 plastic dead pedal or the Nissan 350Z dead pedal. The brake and gas pedals look the same.
Parts
All of the parts in their respective plastic bags with part numbers. These are for the 5AT. For the 6MT the clutch and brake pedals are different. Total price ~$80 shipped.

2001 Mercedes-Benz SLK320 3.2L Engine Light is On with No Acceleration
1. Connect scan tool and monitor voltages of pedal sensor B37. Signal 1 (Accelerator pedal position: Idle speed):[0.2...0.5] V Signal 2 (Accelerator pedal position: Idle speed):[0.1...0.5] V Signal 1 (Accelerator pedal position:Kickdown):[4.3...4.8] V Signal 2 (Accelerator pedal position:Kickdown):[2.1...2.5] V
2. If voltages are out of specification verify correct reference voltage to sensor by measuring between pins 6 (Black/White wire) and pin 1 (Blue/Grey wire) on pedal sensor connector. Voltage needs to be between 4.75 and 5.25 volts.

2001 Infiniti I30 V6-2988cc 3.0L DOHC Heated Oxygen Sensor
The heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear), after three way catalyst (Manifold), monitors the oxygen
level in the exhaust gas on each bank.
Even if switching characteristics of the heated oxygen sensor 1 (front) are shifted, the air
fuel ratio is controlled to stoichiometric, by the signal from the heated oxygen sensor 2
(rear).

Vauxhall Cavalier 4×4 Transfer box Temperature Sensor, Removal & Installation & Oil Level Checking
Warning: The 4×4 transfer box (txb) temperature sensor is fragile and easily damaged. There is absolutely no reason to remove the temperature sensor unless it is being replaced. Removing the Temperature Sensor
701. With the txb cold, trace the cabling back from the txb sensor (Fig.2D) to its connector at the bulkhead (Fig.A & B).
702. Disconnect the sensor, remove the detachable plastic part of the connector (txb side – Fig.1D) and carefully withdraw the cabling back to the underneath of the vehicle – (Facilitates threading through the ring spanner)

2003 Kia Optima 2.4L Replaced Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
Vehicle Application: 2004 Hyundai Sonata 2.4L, Eng Cfg L4, 2003 Hyundai Santa FE 2.4L, Eng Cfg L4 USA 2004 Hyundai Santa FE 2.4L, Eng Cfg L4 2004 Kia Optima 2.4L, Vin 6, Eng Cfg L4 Customer Concern: There is no spark. Tests/Procedures: 1. At the crank position sensor, check for battery voltage to be present on the Red wire with the key on and cranking. The Black wire should be a good ground and the Blue wire should have 5 volts on it from the computer. One may have to disconnect the crank sensor to check for the 5 volt reference. 2. During crank look for a good 5 volt square wave signal on the Blue wire. 3. Check at the ignition coils for good battery voltage key on and cranking. If there is a loss of voltage during crank check the ignition failsafe relay. 4. Check for any stored engine codes.

LaBella’s Auto Repair Map/MAF Sensor Enhancer DEMSE
This device is experimental and worked on OBDII and OBDI systems. Use of this device may void your warranty. It an easily be removed if need be, however. This device is considered experimental and no warranty is implied as to its performance or intended use or misuse. It is not intended to be used as a stand alone device but used in conjunction with supplemental hydrogen (Brown’s) gas generator or an H2O water injection system. When the term computer is used herein, it refers to the vehicle’s ECU (Environmental Control Unit) or ECM. Some vehicles may have more than one computer but the one that controls the fuel system is the one we are speaking about. OBD (On Board Diagnostics) OBD I is pre-1996 and all newer cars have OBD II.

2007 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
An engine that is not running does not need any fuel. This truism helps the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter to save fuel and thereby reduce its environmental impact. If the vehicle is stationary with the engine idling and the transmission in neutral for more than three seconds, the engine is automatically switched off. As soon as the driver depresses the clutch pedal again, the engine re-starts. The potential for saving fuel is considerable: in some cases, depending on application and traffic density, drivers managed to cut their fuel consumption by as much as 20%. On average, the amount saved will probably be somewhere between five and eight percent. The system performs to best advantage in urban use involving frequent stops in traffic queues or at traffic lights.

2002 Toyota Tacoma Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction
Each knock sensor is fitted to the right bank and left bank of the cylinder block to detect engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to the knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.
