    New Radiator FJ60 Opinions

    I was comfortable with trying the Champion. Packaging was very good and survived UPS. The tanks were not perfectly parallel when I went to install, Champions website explains how to correct this. Installed 2 years / 14k miles ago with Dorman 49450 bushings, Denso cap, ground wire and swapped...

    Adjusting wipers question...

    This hits home, just went through this during my wiper rebuild. With all the changes made already, I would remove the wiper arms from the studs entirely as you work to find the proper (original) clocking position of the small arm on the splined wiper motor shaft. Put a ziptie on one of the...

    Spector Offroad 4" Lift Kit - Any One use This? Any Good/Bad Reviews?

    I can verify 5.250 inches from bolt center to bolt center on the box section 2.5 inch shackles (P/N #288-42) that came with my lift. I can also confirm the springs at the time were made by Standens in Canada for SOR (circa 2002 installation date). The springs ride firm, I opened up the spring...

    weird fuel injection prob. in 96 golf

    Real quick check, take the vacuum line off the fuel pressure regulator and check for fuel in the hose. I'm not familiar with VW's but if It's the 2.0 8 Valve, the regulator should be on the fuel rail and to the left of the intake runners. Real easy fix and a dead ringer for hard starts like...

    Not Starting...Weird Electrical Stuff...Help Please

    Ok, real quick......Use a fused jumper wire to TEMPORARILY give power to the coil directly from the battery (bypass the ballast) and see If the engine starts and runs. If yes, then check your wiring to the ignition switch for continuity and make sure that the ballast resistor is working...

    Damn Drums

    If you have a firm pedal after a pump or two then the wheel cylinders are misadjusted and your pumping extra fluid into the wheel cylinders to close the gap between the shoes and the drum. Problem with that is when you let off the pedal completely or let the pedal back to the top for a few...

    Stalled on the highway and now it won't start

    Jumper the + side of the coil to the positive terminal of the battery and try starting it. If your truck rumbles to life then remove the jumper wire and check the RUN circuit of your ignition system especially the ballast resistor and ignition switch.  My resistor gave up the ghost while driving...
