How hard will it be to replace the brake master cylinder? No power brake or power anything for that matter. Someone had left the brake line off...
I replaced the seals. I was able to do the ol' rope trick to keep the valves pushed up. Used a regular spring compressor instead of the bar type....
Is there any kind of fuel additive that simulates the valve-cushioning effect that leaded gas used to provide? Ive been wondering about that the...
I think I'm going to just do the valve stem seals guys. Not to say I don't know anything about engines or this engine in particular. (I figure out...
The only type I have immediate access to is this. [ATTACH]
I ordered the seals. Will any valve spring compressor work or does it have to be a special one?
I really would like to rebuild the head. I'd like to do it myself. I don't know enough about this engine or what special tools I need to do it...
I found pieces of seal under the valve cover. The engine is original to the car, with about 76k on it. They were pretty big pieces, with some of...
It looks like this 200 I have crapped the valve stem seals. How would I replace them? And what would happen if I ran it with them blown out?
Thank you to all of you. After all, y'all are taking time out of your day to help me with my greenhorn questions.
I had to adjust the ignition switch. All I have to do is pump the gas pedal once and crank it and it runs and idles just fine, no problems. I...
I got it guys. Now I just have to do the brakes. One line was left off a drum and the brake fluid looks like chocolate milk
Ok cool, great. Thanks for the patience.
So it's not fused?
Hmmm, the diagram doesn't show the pink wire passing through the fuse block. It apparently just passes through the firewall connector.
Well dang. I guess my being 99 percent sure was greatly exaggerated. The switch has continuity from pink to black. It's my fuse block. It's rusted...
Hey guys, couldn't I just test the switch for continuity in different positions?
Thanks for you guy's patience with me. I know I'm aggrivating
It's not the firewall plug. I've checked every single point along the system. The only thing it could possibly be at this point is the switch. And...
I mean if the ignition switch just receives power from the battery side of the solenoid anyway, I'd rather just make my own circuit for power to...
