My 68 Impala 2DR Fastback has a professional 434 sbc puts out 615 H.P. 598 torque after installing a Mass Flow port injected RFI. It had excellent throttle response, increased H.P. and greatly improved brake response. Thankfully I noticed while on the highway my oil pressure dropped below 20 psi bouncing from 5 to 20 very dangerous for possible seized engine. Luckily a mechanic I knew and used was very close and able to work on the car on his off hours. He insisted on installing a SSBC vacuum pump 28146. Before he had the car it was not necessary. He bled the brakes, dropped the oil pan as the tip had broken off, it was intact no damage i purchased an expensive reusable gasket. It appeared that the builder didn't tape off areas that should not have ever had paint on it subsequently every place painted started leaking. All was supposed to be fixed, I switched the NGK plugs to the colder #10's. Basically the car will spark start rev to 3000 rpm's then die. if Im lucky I can feather the accelerator and get it to go into gear, now the car bucks and has tremendous blow back through the air filter. The Mass Flow creator originally a Ford product has systems for most engines and cars. It is his very strong opinion that the PCV system has a massive leak somewhere. Possible that the Mass Flow could have been damaged. He is pretty confident however is the leak. I'd appreciate any input before spending money wastefully.

If your Rainbow vacuum E2 is experiencing smoking and a red blinking light, it indicates a potential issue with the electrical system or a blockage in the airflow. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and address the problem:
Safety first: Turn off and unplug the vacuum immediately to prevent any further damage or potential safety hazards.
Inspect the hose: Carefully examine the hose for any visible signs of damage, such as cracks or holes. Ensure that the hose is securely connected to both the vacuum unit and the wand. If you notice any damage, it may be necessary to replace the hose.
Check for blockages: Remove the hose and wand assembly from the vacuum and inspect them for any blockages or obstructions. Pay particular attention to the areas where the smoking occurred. Clear any debris or blockages that you find.
Clean or replace the filters: A clogged or dirty filter can restrict airflow and cause the vacuum to overheat. Remove and clean the filters according to the manufacturer's instructions. If the filters are worn out or damaged, it may be necessary to replace them.
Electrical system check: The red blinking light indicates a potential electrical issue. Examine the electrical connections and cords for any signs of damage or loose connections. If you notice any issues, it is advisable to have a professional technician inspect and repair the electrical components.
Seek professional assistance: If the smoking and red blinking light persist after performing the above steps, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer's customer support or a professional vacuum repair service. They can provide further guidance and assistance in diagnosing and resolving the issue.
It sounds like there may be a problem with the vacuum's sensor that detects when the bag or filter is full. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to fix the issue:
Check the bag and filter: Make sure that the bag and filter are properly installed and not damaged. If the bag or filter is damaged or not properly installed, it can cause the sensor to malfunction.
Reset the sensor: Some Nilfisk vacuums have a reset button or switch that can be used to reset the sensor. Check the owner's manual or the vacuum itself for a reset button or switch and try resetting the sensor.
Clean the sensor: Dust and debris can sometimes accumulate on the sensor and cause it to malfunction. To clean the sensor, turn off the vacuum and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Locate the sensor and use a small brush or compressed air to carefully clean it.
If these troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it is possible that the sensor itself is damaged or malfunctioning. In this case, it may be necessary to have the sensor repaired or replaced by a professional.
It sounds like there may be a problem with your Waterco T500 pool pump. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to determine the cause of the leak:
Check the pump seal: The pump seal is located between the motor and the pump housing and can sometimes wear out or become damaged, causing a leak. To check the pump seal, turn off the pump and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Remove the pump cover and inspect the seal for any visible damage or wear. If the seal is damaged, it will need to be replaced.
Check the o-rings: O-rings are used to seal the connections between the pump and other components, such as the filter, heater, and pipes. If an o-ring is damaged or worn out, it can cause a leak. To check the o-rings, turn off the pump and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Locate the o-rings and inspect them for any visible damage or wear. If an o-ring is damaged, it will need to be replaced.
Check the pipes and fittings: Loose or damaged pipes and fittings can also cause a leak. To check the pipes and fittings, turn off the pump and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Inspect the pipes and fittings for any visible damage or looseness. If a pipe or fitting is damaged or loose, it will need to be repaired or replaced.
If these troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it is possible that there is a problem with the pump itself or another internal component. In this case, it may be necessary to have the pump repaired or serviced by a professional.
Leaking from where? The jets up front? If so you need to replace the electrical water control valve. Visit http:www.Michco.com to get a new one or assistance.
Often times I see the pumps clogged with soap when acting like you described. This can cause a pump to be weak. Pressure builds up whe you stop squirting water but tapers off quickly. A few times I've been able to get water flowing good but most times have to replace the pump.
