Hello, Please report on the condition of the crankshaft position sensor harness. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1380818&rss=1 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 19:24 GMT Hello, Get a locksmith. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1375891&rss=1 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 13:32 GMT Hi, What is the actual engine temperature during the episodes? It may be far to fetch, but this is near a letch. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1373026&rss=1 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 02:32 GMT Hello 1. Substitute the address for your image location img src="http://www.unm.edu/~goatman/inputshaft.jpg" 2. Enclose the statement in angle brackets: < > 3. Paste the enclosed statment into your message. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1370876&rss=1 Tue, 8 Sep 2009 13:20 GMT Yeah, A mutilated carcass! That about sums up how I think of people who disable safety equipment. But of course, if you are a doctor of engineering and have a multimillion dollar test facility, please send me your data. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367632&rss=1 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 04:21 GMT Please, For your sake, tighten the belts!!! Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367463&rss=1 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 23:57 GMT Please, Tell the mechanic that an emergency came up and you can't have the car fixed right now. Unfortunately for you, the mechanic has no clue what to do. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367191&rss=1 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 17:25 GMT Hello, That car is going to run good. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367189&rss=1 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 17:14 GMT Hello, Remove the entire bracket while replacing the right side motor mount. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367188&rss=1 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 17:06 GMT Hello, You have a defective fuel pump check valve. I'm fairly certain that if you are more persistent with the starter, you'll have no trouble. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1367050&rss=1 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 00:51 GMT Howizer, A ringing resemblance to what I was told! "Oh no, you don't know!" "NO, no, you can't go!" "Uh oh, you're too slow!" "Oh, you can just ride the bus. It comes every fifteen minutes." "You are wasting your time and money on this "Just junk it! Just JUNK IT, JUNK IT JUNK IT!!! JUNK IT!! I was very pleased at my obstinance and now I can go to the movies! I can have a drink and dinner. I can go to school in the warm and safe comfort cab. I pay no car payment. Remember, the object is to help yourself first. Only after you help yourself can you help other people. I know from experience that one who forces their desires upon you, really isn't for you. Good Luck!!! http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1366814&rss=1 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 18:47 GMT Hello, Perform a compression test to verify mechanical integrity of the engine. Have an assistant start and run the engine whilst you consecutively remove each ignition wire and replace it. If you find that the engine condition does not change concurrent with the operation of a spark plug, then the cylinder is not firing. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1366222&rss=1 Sat, 15 Aug 2009 18:02 GMT Hello, I've done it. Every peer told me how foolhardy I was, and some said it couldn't be done. Now I was 22 at the time, so you've got to take that into account. My advice to you is if you've got some time and money, your expectations will be exacted with the finest edge of excellence. Replace the engine with a 1983 B23F or a 1995 B230L. Good Luck!!! http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1366007&rss=1 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 03:22 GMT Hello, I'm glad I was able to help. Thank you for the quick replies! Kyle @ San Mateo and Central, Good Luck!!! http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365896&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:53 GMT Hello, How much and fast is the oil is "weeping" out? Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365895&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:50 GMT Hi, Verify the integrity of the engine coolant temperature computer sensor. An unconnected connector will throw the mixture rich. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365891&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:39 GMT Hello, Check that the vacuum line of the fuel pressure regulator has no gas inside. The fuel pressure regulator is coated with yellow chrome and is located at the end of the fuel rail. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365889&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:35 GMT Hi, The three wire connector is the same for both the throttle switch and the idle valve. I don't have the instructions. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365884&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:25 GMT Hello, Please remove a spark plug from the engine and reattach the wire. Now press the threads of the plug against the valve cover. Watch the gap of the spark plug while an assistant cranks the engine over. It would be wise to measure the voltage at the ignition coil with the key in position II. Make sure that there is no gas leak. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365882&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:24 GMT New Mexico, What is the condition of the ignition system? Does the fuel system operate? What is the voltage at the ignition coil? Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365878&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:14 GMT Hello, You may have switched the position of the throttle switch and idle air valve connectors. If this is the case, then you may have permanently damaged the fuel computer. Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365877&rss=1 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:08 GMT Hi, I admire your ambitions. Using finished cherry wood panel, I replaced the vinyl coated foam insert on the glove box. Mounted with 1/4" capscrews, two gas actuated industrial chemical reactor thermometers sit.sagaciously. Initial Installation infarctions included an inane inception of an immersion thermowell directly adjacent the water jacket. Resonance of the weighty assembly resulted in a quick quandary. My intent is to later fabricate a fitting for the future application of oil temperature. I. Oil Pressure II. Engine Vacuum III. Water Temperature IV. Oil Temperature V. Ambient Temperature VI. Coolant Pressure Good Luck, Goatman 1977 264 Grande Luxe http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365549&rss=1 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 07:27 GMT Hello, Please, do not remove the camshaft. Please, re-use the headbolts unless visually distorted. Now, attach a wire wheel to your power drill to clean the surface. Be very sure and steady whilst setting the head onto the block; use driving gloves. Do not mar the casting. You are a cool dude! Goatman http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1365397&rss=1 Tue, 11 Aug 2009 19:39 GMT Hello, You can purchase aftermarket door handles at fcpgroton.com. Until the replacement arrives, remove the rear door handle and install it into the drivers door. They are the same. Good Luck!!! http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1364748&rss=1 Sat, 8 Aug 2009 23:45 GMT Art, I really appreciate the technique that you've elaborated upon.
