Xt6 trans problem
mountain brat replied to mountain brat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Its internal.it won't shift into 2,4,or reverse. Started with no reverse then 2 and 4 followed. -
So put an xt6 trans in after 5k lost 2-4-r any ideas oil looks good and not the linkage. Thanks for any input
-
i want to find out if its repairable or build a new one. anyone have a good 2.5 block?
-
normal as the book says.dont know what happened
-
motor blew up, lost headgasket.i dont know why but very bummed ran great for 2 weeks out of nowhere poof.something odd was the head bolts on the top center both sides are either stripped or broke.anyway very bad and my dd now i have to scramble and just get a 2.2 in it asap:mad: so much work and time
-
2.2 power steering hoses
-
it had fuel coming out though, so i capped it. ive heard vw guys cap it.my lifted rig did this also i have a canister but it filled and leaked also not sure but would like to get it right
-
fraken it and youll love it
-
yes i took the idiot sensor out made a hydraulic hose and adapted the ea sensor so my gauge will work.its simple and cheap to do, i think the hose cost 12 bucks.
-
thanks alot much more fun to drive especially all the xt6 goodies under it
-
mine was carbed before and it runs well so im pretty sure its right if u unhook it from the fuel rail and turn on the key fuel shoots out
-
if the vac pump wont do it i grabbed a outlet off another intake so i can ad another vac either on #3 side or next to the one for the brake booster
-
im going to put in the vac pump from the xt6 donor and hook that hvac,cc,and diff lock hopefully. didnt realize i could hook that hvac to that vac hose on the throttle,it seems to work fine. the fuel lines should be right my delivery hose is just a little long.
-
if someone needs help with some part of this swap let me know. ive received plenty of help maybe i can return it to some else i have the cometic headgasket # thanks justin
-
i think it already has it scoots right along.dont know how many hp really but seems like plenty, reminds me of my wrx.very stoked on this build. ill let you know for sure abe i dont know when ill be over at the moment probably before long to go to silver creek.still trying to work wiring on the dif lock and the trans wiring.the xt6 trans has 2 plugs with about 6 or 7 wires and the orignal trans had about 4 wires need to figure reverse lights and the rest
-
thanks, took a couple weeks to do it the result is nice.mostly junk yard build
-
