Not sure exactly but it’s not old. Previous owner mentioned it as a being done sometime before I bought it at 212k miles. I’m at 233 now. Power/positive wire was rough, somewhat corroded and the wire housing was gummy. Did a quick inspection and tried to bench test and couldn’t get it to...

Thanks for info and advice 2001LC, and others. I’m new here but seems to be great community and resource on here. Picked up some fresh crush washers for the fuel dampener. Worked like a charm. Starts easy, idles smooth and will rev without stumbling, alls well…for now, lol. Felt good...

Finally had a day off to fiddle with it. Checked battery voltage across the posts and at multiple ground points, getting 12.8 V everywhere. Went through the pain-in-the-sweet-meat process of pulling the starter today. Bench tested it, and it was dead. I could get it to click and hum...

Any idea what to make of vehicle battery gauge showing less than 12v after charge?

Finally getting back to inspecting. Was able to get under hood and crawl over the top side to try and get a peak at the starter. Vids are not great due to holding iPhone upside down and backwards, in the mid day Georgia sun on a step stool…lol. 1. Confirmed all battery posts and wire...

Many thx for the detailed response. Been working day to dark last couple. This LX hasn’t missed a step since purchase and was maintained by previous. On a lark yesterday, I jumped it with a LiPo pack and it acted similar but fired off after a couple ignition on/offs. Kept it running for a...

I’m too new to owning my LX to assume I know much… 2000 LX. Have an out of nowhere issue when starting engine. Replaced starter about 18k miles ago at 215k. Alternator swapped last summer. Vehicle wants to click/engage with ignition key turned and acts like a weak battery but will...

~215k

I got it figured and fixed. The still shot with red arrow above was the culprit. Tiny little spot weld that held that spindle in a fixed spot. Hit it with a MIG welder and locked it position with plenty of material. Holds like it should and still operates well for 25 yrs old. Other than a...

Looks like there’s a broken weld. Poor lighting but as best I can see this should be a fixed point and appears to have had been welded

Yes, The previous owner did have front seats recovered. I’ll give it a comparison from the schematic. Thx.

I noticed it about 6months ago and just haven’t got around to checking it out. Someone else was driving and I noticed the seat frame squat when they sat in the driver seat. I couldn’t identify any broken welds or frame. The worm gear doesn’t slide up and back when I press on the slides to...
