  1. I cant send you a PM. send me an email at fshnidiot@msn.com and give me your phone # and I'll give you a call. thanks, Frank

  2. Hey don't mean to keep bothering you but I really need a one of those back doors. Can't find one anywhere. Could you sell me one please? I can make arrangements for someone to ship it, or if you know someone I'll pay them. My door just rusted through!!

  3. Hey dude what's your phone number? Or call me 919-649-5588. We can line up the details of me buying the hatch!! Thanks!

  4. This forum is weird can't ever tell if it's posting or not. Any who, I would like to buy the nicest one and can pay for shipping and packing. Maybe $120 to sweeten the deal? Let me know man, my hatch is about kaput. The window is just fine though.

  5. Hi, I still have 2 silver rear hatch doors. I don't have a use for them so I'd let them both go for $20 if you're interested. No windshield though. I'm in north Marysville off exit 206. Frank (fshnidiot)

  6. I can help ya on the rear hatch, I've still got 2. No windshield though.

  7. Hey man I'm looking for a rear hatch for my 84 standard. You posted a good while ago that you had a couple. Also looking for a decent front windshield. Any help??

    Thanks, Nick.

  8. I used a metal coat hanger to open the back sliding window. I slid it through the gap in the middle, unlatched the slider, and reached in and unlocked my door. Nice and easy, and no damage. Frank
  9. Well, atleast it reads at 0 oil pressure now so I'm guessing the gauge isn't working properly, and it still ticks, but it sounds quieter and wet, instead of dry and loud. Drive it till it blows time since I've already hurt it. Thanks for all the help! Frank
  10. O-ring? What O-ring? There wasn't anything there. I'm gonna drop 1 in and see what happens and hope for the best. Thanks for the tip. Frank
  11. Non hydro motor. Oil pickup was there so that wasn't it. I dropped the pan and found some chunks in the bottom. 1 piece looks like JB weld or something that was molded into a hole so I'm gonna guess that it's dead:horse: and start the search for a good cheap short block to drop my manifold and weber on. Again. Thanks for the help, Frank
  12. New sending unit and I replaced the wiring with about 18-24" of old wiring replaced from where the harness splits behind the intake manifold.
  13. There's oil in the filter and some dripping out of the pump. No evidence of any oil antifreeze mixing, no bubbles in the radiator etc. The pressure guage needle comes up about 1/2 way to the 0 mark on the guage for a minute or so after startup and then drops to the stop peg as it warms up. Then I get the blow dryer effect. Frank
  14. I'll go pull the filter right now and check. It hasn't been run much (5-10 miles at 35mph or less back and forth to the parts store) so hopefully I haven't hurt it yet. Back in a few. Thanks, Frank
  15. I just dropped a resealed EA81 I bought into my 82 Brat. Fired right up but I have no oil pressure and valves ticking bad. I rebuilt and dropped in another oil pump (I checked it and it's within the specs in my book for wear. both pumps are still good) and adjusted the valves with no change in pressure or noise. No leaks anywhere, temp stays cool, sounds and feels really good and strong except for the ticking. With the motor running i removed the oil filler cap and I have enough air coming out of it to use it as a blow dryer. Air is also blowing out the valve cover breather tubes like crazy.(forced air induction for my weber ) Am I right in thinking there is no oil pickup tube going from the block into the oilpan and as a result I'm just sucking air? It's full of fresh oil so I know that's not the problem. Thanks, Frank
