The tail light fuse burned up last night taking out the dash lights. As soon as a new fuse is put in, it burns it up too. So far I've disconnected all of the plugs from the tail light housing, disconnected the dimmer switch, checked the tail light relay, checked all of the wiring to the tail...
I have a 87 F350 Crew Cab that needs a new abs hydraulic unit. The one on it is leaking pretty bad and I want to rebuild it but nobody can find a rebuild kit and I don't want to buy a reman unit ($200). I'm wondering if I would be able to rebuild this unit with seals/o-rings that would be...
I've searched but I haven't seen a 5mge swapped in. I have found one locally that has the bellhousing for the w56 transmission and it also has the complete wiring harness. Is this a decent swap? I know the 7mge is popular, but I can get this 5mge pretty cheap. FYI my 22re is fine, but of...
A friend of mine just bought a 4wd truck and it has a honda engine in it. I have never seen or heard of this kind of swap. Anyone know what honda engine could be adapted to a toyota trans? I don't think that it would have as much power as a 22r or if there would be any benefit at all for using...
I'm working on a friend's subaru that is having what seems like a torque converter issue. When it is put in gear the engine dies and barely moves forward. After it is warmed up it seems to work ok and will go into gear smoothly. He use to rev it up and throw it in gear so that it wouldn't...
I recently bought an 87 F350 4x4 lariat crew cab with 69k miles that has a 460 and a c6 transmission. The truck also had a rebuilt engine because the PO didn't think that coolant was important and cooked the original. The other day I was driving it and it swallowed the air cleaner stud. I'm...
I know this probably belongs in the parts wanted, but I figured I would get a little more exposure here. I have a 1982 2wd and the PO completely hacked all of the plastic trim on the dash. I really want to add a stereo but I need the plastic trim first. If anyone has these pieces and would be...
I'm working on a 98 grand am and I need to get the timing chain cover off. The problem is, I can't get the bolts out for the upper engine mount plate that goes in front of the timing cover. When I get the bolts almost all the way out, they hit the inner fender. I really don't want to pull or...
I am helping a friend who has an 04 intrepid with a broken timing belt. Is this engine a interference or a non interference engine? This has a 4 cyl btw.
I recently swapped the engine in my 83 2wd because I bought it with a thrown rod. After I hooked everything up it wouldn't run at low rpms because of a vacuum leak that I couldn't trace. I figured that it was in the carb or vacuum lines somewhere so I changed the carb to a 32/36 weber. This...
I was going to buy a kit with the adaptor but it says only for cable linkage. This is for my 82 and it has a cable but it goes along the firewall to the solid/pivot linkage. It is not the cable linkage that goes over the valve cover. What do I need to do to get the right carb? Do I have to...
I just got done swapping my engine in and got it running. The idle fluctuates from running high to low to dying. Most of the time it wants to idle high though. All of the vacuum lines are hooked up properly and I think the carb is ok. The other thing it does is a high pitch sound that is...
I have a 4wd engine to put into my 2wd and I noticed the oil pans are different. Do I have to use a 2wd oil pan? The 2wd oil pan I have is trashed and is not usable. They are both 22r engines btw.
I am having issues with getting a damn 22r. I never thought I would have a problem getting a good used engine around here. I have only found a couple of VERY over priced engines with over 150k. They want more than what I can get a shortblock for. Its very frustrating. If any of you yahoos...
I have been looking for a nice 2wd for awhile now and finally stumbled across this. It is an 82 with a 22r and a 5 speed. It also has power steering. Almost completely rust free and dent free. The issue is that the dude ran it of oil so I need an engine.
I haven't torn into it to find...
I have a motorcycle that is in Turlock Ca and I am wanting it to be shipped to Salt Lake. The engine, exhaust, gas tank, etc is on a pallet and the frame is complete with wheels so it can be moved easily. If anyone is going through please let me know.
I am putting a new engine in this car that was given to me and I am having some issues. The electrical connections under the hood are not murphy proof and so they are a complete mess. When I was disconnecting them I thought they were murphy proof so I didn't think to mark them.
The other...
What are the differences in these two transmissions? I know that the 151f is the turbo transmission, but is it stronger than the 150? I am thinking of doing the lexus v8 swap and will need a R series transmission for the adapter.
