  1. Yes, when changing ride height, the "correct" procedure is to loosen the bolt for any bushing that twists around the bushing during travel and retorque it at ride height.

  2. Yes. SOHC EJ fits no worries. DOHC EJ requires a chassis rail mod forward of the engine crossmember. Cheers Bennie

  3. Yes, do it. Your suspension bushes will thank you for it, especially if they’re old. Cheers Bennie

  4. first thing to check is the rocker switch on top of the steering column. If it is in the on position, the marker lights will stay on. It's a European thing. Here it is just used to kill your battery if you hit it by mistake. Try throwing the switch and see if the lights go out.

  5. Sounds like a good idea. That is one reason I like the alignment racks that you drive the car on and the car weight is on the wheels when you tighten those bolts.

  6. try spraying a little water around the wires with the engine running esp. at night and see if there are any sparkly lights had the same issue a few months ago on my 08 when it was exceptionally damp in my cold garage ran rough and code issued it hasn't recurred.

  7. They can be notoriously difficult to bleed. Search for “burping” if you have more issues. Generally refilling nose up and topping off after a drive or two is good to go.

  8. I've always been taught to use a little dielectric grease on plug wires so they don't stick during install or removal and to keep any moisture out.

  9. Yep. It was almost 15 years ago, so a lot has changed, but mostly still relevant.

  10. Not sure what trans you're running, may be similar to the one I have (though mine is out of an '86). I have the D/R, and it is a 4 position lever. Bottomed out (no downward play in handle) is FWD only. Up once is 4Hi. Up again is True Neutral/Towing. Up one last time (3rd time for those not counting) is 4Lo. From time to time she gets twitchy, whether out on one of the "Primitive Roads" we have out here, or my 1/4 mile long curvy, hilly driveway she decides she doesn't want to come out of 4WD, no matter which range. When that happens, I put in the clutch, put her in reverse, let out the clutch until she's just starting to move, then back to Neutral. She'll let herself be put back in FWD then.
