nipper Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 For those of us who are running older cars (much older) keep an eye on ebay from time to time for emission and fuel related parts. I got a bleed valve for the Justy dirt cheap compared to the new price (and it was OE). The Justy had a rough idle i couldn't trace (it is a 3cyl), so i lived with it. During the winter the bleed valve popped up on ebay for like 12 bucks (70 new). I figured eh can't pass it up. Come spring I swapped it out just because and the rough idle went away, even though the part was working well. It was just tired from being almost 25 years old. So if your running any older car, snag arts you dont think you need (that are new) because a new part sitting on a nice shelf someplace is in better condition then one that has been living under the hood for 25 years.

spicypeanut Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm always cruising eBay. I think I have a sickness. You should see all the parts I have stashed in my garage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm always cruising eBay. I think I have a sickness. You should see all the parts I have stashed in my garage. was that an invite ? Any pics or list of suggestions? I've just done a buy up of IGN/steering locks to install to avoid a typical breakdown issue for next 25 years or so And just making use of an EA82 turbo RX pedal box - been sitting on last 9 years, happy to find three roller bearings to assist the smooth clutch operation hoped for, Also sitting on spare EA81 door handles - one door fits any other door, and they break ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
