Fabricating Brat jump seat mounts
opus replied to mcgarvey2001's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I know, but really there arent that many. I was going to bring my Brat up there to sell it, my boy lives there. -

How to improve power/mpg on EA82?
opus replied to smallwwb's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I've got many, many years on ATF, still no issues on any of them. -
You know where we put quarters to plug the asv valve....

I'll do one or all of the above. Depends on my mood that day. Thanks for the input. -

Guess I could take the header off, cut the stainless tubes, pull the spacers off and then plug them? -

Bingo! I've got one of them taking up space. -

Thats kinda what I was thinking. I dont think I can do it with the engine in the car and I surely am not pulling it for that. Maybe someone has done it in the car....... -
Or whatever its called. What is the easiest way to remove that whole setup. The stainless tubes are leaking at the fittings where they connect to the spacer between the exhaust header and the head. Putting a wrench to them isnt going to work. Can I remove that whole spacer? Will the header bolt up without it? '87 ea81

I didnt find anything adjustable. Maybe its an in-store only thing?

Wish I had an Autozone within 150 miles.

Is/was there much of a suspension on these when they were new? I did a drive yesterday, 100 miles on a gravel road, hammered me to death! THe front wasnt quite as bad as the back. Bang, bang, bang in the back. Granted the shocks might be the original, I need to look. Can you make these ride decent on gravel roads? Mind you, I still have hard, studded snows on, which contributed to the rough ride.

Vacuum leak that has to do with the choke?

Help with scary drivetrain shaking
opus replied to soobscript's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I just went through this. Mine was front ujoint almost locked solid. -
That pressure is pretty much the way most of them are that I have had. I figure 10psi for every 1000 rpm seems how it works.
