Progress on the 86 I just picked up...so far
Where should I start? Well like I told you guys, it has a major gas leak, by the tank, but only if it's running. I got a new battery ion it, and a new window motor on the DS, the motor was completely dead, but it was not the original one. PS has original motor, but just needs new bushings. PS power lock solenoid is missing, wonder what the story on that is? A/C doesn't work, found out compressor was replaced, but the hook ups on the back of it don't match the hoses, someone got the wrong compressor, the original is in the trunk but looks like it needs a new clutch on it. On the plus side, only 104K, engine sounds great, tranny shifts great, brakes liens are all new, rear tires are great, but fronts are done for. that's all i can think of right now. boy, it's nice to have all the creature comforts my 85 Cougar didn't, even if that had the V8 (it had a vacuum leak somewhere I never got around to pinpointing) BTW, the air filter housing was full of oil, it's all in the TB too, what is that, bad PCV valve?
