  1. If you can, wait it out and ask people on the board for a 4wd tranny. They seem like fun little cars. I want one.
  2. Very nice wagon. Just wanted to say that, sorry I don't know where the switch is.
  3. You might want to ask on inb the USMB marketplace... here. [HTi]Johnson
  4. Engine shaking could be a timing issue. like cylinder(s) not firing. Have you done an ignition tune up on it? Like distributor cap, rotor, plugwires, and plugs? Ever taken a timing light to it? How about the fuel filter? My engine shook something fierce. I found out it was a loose injector wiring.!! But it's fixed now and idles smooth. As for the ticking...if it is a valve...it's not THAT bad, some people live with it. I can't. People have ways of fixing it. Some people will just replace the HVLA..some use seafoam or MMO(Marvel's Mystery Oil). And just a simple oil change helps. Maybe the oil in the car now has lost it's viscosity? What I do to fix the tick of death is...and oil change with 1/2quart to 1quart of ATF. Yes. ATF...it's a detergent and will clean your engine and Valve lashers right up. It takes a couple minutes of...let's say...high RPM driving. And where in Oregon do you live? [HTi]Johnson
  5. Did they mess with the rear diff...this may seem out of context, but your rear diff should be 3.7 ratio...my old car, someone put a 3.9 in it..for the rear diff...and the AT was 3.7. After a couple tens of miles in 4wd...it fooked the Auto Tranny up.
  6. Maybe the seal manufacturers didn't wanted to deal with people saying "You only sent me 4 of 8 seals!!!" [HTi]Johnson
  7. Does it superheat the fuel before it is introduced into the cylinder?
  8. Hey i found out that's a stupid question. IDIOT!
  9. I'm sure you are, but are you putting to friction disk in right? The side stamped Flywheel is towards, well, the flywheel? But it sounds like your throwout bearing(release bearing) was riding the pressure plate(thing with fingers) all the time, even with the clutch engaged to the flywheel. Did you adjust the cable to the new clutch? My friend didn'tdo that before. I hope my babbling helps. [HTi]Johnson
  10. Does your fork move when you push in the clutch?
  11. Will it work? Putting an EA81 radiator into a EA82T car, without the mech. fan. And...another Q. Ok, my car has a problem where I drive, and accelerate and it sounds/feels like it has restriction but it's catless. Also sounds like the waste gate is opening, alot. This happens sometimes, enough to be annoying. I already replaced the cap, rotor, wires, and plugs. Any ideas. 1987 Gl-10 Thanks, [HTi]Johnson
  12. How far is the move? You could just keep a supply of oil handy.
  13. EA81s use push rods. With a central cam. The cam pushes the rod...which hits a rocker arm that pushes down on the valve, which in turn opens the valve.
  14. wanna know a good mech? Yourself. It's not too hard to do a gasket job, even if the engine is still in the car, I've done that, i was in a pinch and replaced the drivers side headgasket . Not hard at all.
  15. My friend paid $1200 for his brat it has 195,000 miles. It is kinda beat up and different shades of black paint. So I think $2000 would be a good deal for a 88k brat. Does it have the jumpseats?
  16. Hey where do they mount tow hitches on EA82 Wagons? If you still have the stock bumper. [HTi]Johnson
  17. Is your crossover piped cracked? Maybe it cracked right where it connects to the turbo.
  18. I pulled this part for someone. Just was confused. Why would a car company buy parts from a Company that makes electronics...and happens to make cars that are on the same compitetion level.
  19. They would deteriate badly, if it was in a humid area...heck you could replace them anyways...what is it $30 for a set?...which reminds me..i need to do my brakes.
  20. How many miles are on the car itself? That will let you decide what needs to be replaced.
  21. Does it happen in neutral? Can you give it gas and the noise comes?
  22. Look what I found in my green wagon It's a Mitsubushi part! With the Fuji symbol...and the mistu symbol...sacrilege i say.
  23. My green wagon, before i rolled it had 270,000 and my GL-10 has 190000
