'92 Loyale headlight bulbs burning out quickly
nipper replied to mybrosteve's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I would replace the connectors in the plug or get new pigtails. Usually this is the cause of short lived bulbs in the headlights. -
I did this in my Justy it does work well.

Actually its been surprising what the new EFI (throttle body) kits can do. However you do have a point and should email them to find out if it can handle it. -
Auto electrics 101: The battery s a storage device used to start the car and make up any output defacits by the altenator (like at a traffic light) The Alt recharges the storage battery and runs the car. The Alt is not putting out enough power to meet the demand of the load, so the car runs out of battery power and starts running badly. The battery can rebuild itself if it sits long enough and hasnt been damaged by the discharge. These batteries arent designed for deep discharge. Just replacing the battery will not fix the issue, it may delay it but wont fix it. This isnt rocket science.

If you remove the door cards yes they can be lubed. White lithium grease is your freind. Lubricate everything including the lock cylinders. Are the floors solid? Thats not a usual rust point for Roos. Congrats.

I may try to fix it and eventually replace the panel. There are some multi part epoxies that are supposedly good for it. Its broken by the seat belt.
