Re: no electricity

Petros, It does when you rebuild it yourself. Had to mill up some new bearings and clean up my housing. Been inspecting my connections and everything looks pretty clean.

Re: no electricity

so it seemed to be after I swapped my cv joint. after that proceedure (that took about a week) I couldnt get anything. I checked all my fuses and they looked good, I tried looking to see if my relays are bad but couldnt find too much info on testing them.

Re: Project Blue restoration

Erik,

Pretty well, it has a small clunk it sounds like when I shift from 1st to 2nd. but only sometimes.

dlb,

So, I went on a 300mi trip with it and got about 28 mpg on the way up while mostly flooring it (we have steep mountains to climb here). but on the way down I got about 46.

Building the library

Im sure copies of these are already on here somewhere. I picked these up for pretty cheap on ebay because i hoard manuals. But i figured id show em off and see if theyre worth scanning for yall. I only have the electrical one in, i figured it may be good for a blown up detailed wiring diagram. The o...

Re: Is this worth rebuilding?

Whats a good way to test my solenoids? Can I just plug them in and ground them and flip the key?

TL;DR on bottom Hello everyone, I recently bought this piece of craigslist gold for 200 flat from a lady thinking the car was toast (thinking rear main seal).
