This very well could be. Smart valve starving the motor will cause a lean condition burning it up. He's prob right. I keep reading posts about dry gas. Dry gas is not the answer and will do your motor more harm than good if used in excess. Just wanted to give a heads up to all the people pouring dry gas into the tank. A buddie of mine burned up his poo last hear by putting too much dry gas into it when it wasn't needed.Originally posted by FINFASTF7@Jan 15 2003, 11:59 AM
JUST CHECKED WITH THE DEALER, HE SAID IF YOU HAD YOUR UPDATES DONE YOU NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT THE MELT DOWN, IT WAS A SMARTVALVE AND COOLANT ISSUE, CAUSEING THE MAX SIDE TO GOOD LEAN! I SURE HOPE HE IS RIGHT!!! <_<
My sled's serial # was higher than the recall for the smart valve. However I would follow the suggestion to have the ECM reprogramed since mine burned down at midrange.Originally posted by scaryscott@Jan 14 2003, 11:16 PM
