It may not be a boat, but you'll find marine grade wiring easier to solder, has more strands, is more pliable than standard primary wire, plus it won't corrode when exposed to moisture, which can lead to a substantial voltage loss across a circuit. That voltage drop increases the load on the...

My $.02 - consult a wire gauge chart (http://www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm), use marine grade wiring, solder the connections, shrink wrap, breathe easy knowing Detour Dan won't be talking about your vehicle being the one that's on fire along side the freeway.

Just out of curiosity, if you can't afford 13MPG, how can you afford a car payment? Regardless of what you buy, it will likely still take some amount of fuel to operate. I say sell the 80 and use the profits to buy something outright until you can save up for what you want. Making payments on...

$350 would be a fair charge if it was done right. BTW, if you can't find MEK (DO NOT buy the substitute) 10 parts diesel and one part tranny fluid works great to degrease an engine. A pressure washer is your friend here too.

Hapliters, Here is all the info on your rig looking from Mr T's perspective: 18186 *******VEHICLE INQUIRY REPORT DATE: 08/09/12 DCV920 TIME: 09:43 NO INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS VEHICLE...

At $916 list, you might want to look around for a used unit.

I can get it to Marana this Sunday, or Eloy on Friday.

I'm out. I don't think the :princess: would let me wear the bedsheets:frown:

A 1FZ will certainly help you avoid getting over the 400-500 HP range!

Perma-Lok makes a great product called MM115. It is a sealer and mild thread locker. I've used it for many years - seals great and is always easy to remove.

August bump

If your belts were busted before everything happened your dash would have been lit up like a Christmas tree.

Hows the DS sheet metal?

If you can't get it with FJ60Cam's method, you can remove the condenser bolts and center support out of the way enough to get access to the bolts.

I would try blowing the pistons out of the caliper with compressed air and checking for corrosion. Now is a good time to inspect and/or replace the seals anyways since you are doing a brake service. I assume you are resurfacing the rotors as well? Brake fluid absorbs moisture. So while the...
