Help with EA81 motor mounts


Recommended Posts

Well, I got the heater bypassed, and a new water pump installed. Then found the brakes are almost non existent, 'nother project there... :) Also, found the throttle linkage is sticking somewhere, and that's why it was idling so fast.

 

Didn't feel like messing with the brakes, so just let it idle for a while to see if it would get hot, etc... Walked across the shop to talk to my friend's dad and after about 10 minutes we were interupted by a rather loud smokey boom... :(

 

Radiator hose popped off the water pump... I told myself not to reuse the original wire style clamp, but... Gonna replace it with a worm screw clamp, and try again. Don't think anything was really hurt, just the clamp wasn't tight enough.

 

So, I'll try bleeding the brakes one of these days, then I should be able to bring her home... :)
