  1. when im exceding speeds of 60mph my soob starts to swerve and jump around. was running without a swaybar for about 2 months. put it on and its a little better but just not how my last one was. and i am running turbo suspension on front drivers side. its a loyale. has anyone ever encountered this problem?
  2. well its official the guys an idoit. he described it and it sounds like a ea81 by color of valve covers whatnot but it had timing chains. i think im gonna pass on the spare engine haha
  3. well im looking at this car for a friend. the person who is selling it said that he was on the freeway and smoke came ouit of the engine bay and by the time he got home it was starting to vaporlock which i have no idea what that is. now he says when he starts the car it will overheat very quickly. im going to look tomorrow and i am suspecting heatercore hoses. he said exhaust is white when he starts the car but its been very cold here lately and hard to tell if its a problem or just cold out
  4. how do i tell if a car has bad headgaskets? im going to look at a car for a friend tomorrow that is overheating (ea82). it sounds like it might be a heater core hose or another coolant hose but i would like to know the symptoms or how to identify bad headgaskets. thanks!
  5. i was also curious if just gl's came with sunroofs? or was that a gl10 thing
  6. looks good i liek that color. found out the one im looking at has a aftermarket dark emrald green matalic paint
  7. im looking at one right now with a dark metalic green aftermarket paint. super good looking! so im kinda excited and its a gl with the dr too does anyone know which if any engines came with timing chains?
  8. what greens did the ea82 models come in? i know theres the tea green but did they ever make a forest green? or any other greens. the car im looking at has an extra 1800 engine and has timing chains? is this a ej18 im thinking? but just got the shibby on the car. 170k aftermarket forest green matelic 85 gl D/R. mint body supposdely. AWESOME COLOR!
  9. you are going to need the DR lever linkage but it will bolt right in
  10. i dont think that brats had the third light only wagons through 80-82. but not completely sure
  11. should bolt right in. easier than my auto to D/R conversion i would suspect. but i dont know much about ea81s
  12. ill make it over eventually if you wanna take apeak. no meter yet
  13. tonight i plugged in my reverse light switch and my 4x4 tell tale switch on my tranny. only problem is neither of them work. checked fuses and the discovered the ground wire running from the spare tire area towards the transmission doesnt go anywhere. does anyone know where that ground goes into the wiring for those switches? its a 92loyale with a d/r thanks!
  14. what i did with my oil pan gasket was cover it with rtv to make it a rubber gasket with cork inside. and make sure the cork is fine not thick chunks. GD had some trouble with a thick cut cork ea82 oil pan gasket that eventually just ripped in half. dealership all the way
  15. i cut mine off too when i got my car but that was because the previous owner hit a curb and it looks better gone
  16. im assuming you dont want the grill? ill get the light. the switch and the try to grab some wiring, ill see. i think theres two there. one i remember for sure isnt very pretty but ill look for ya! but if you only want one thats good looking ill keep my eye out
  17. theres a couple at the jy by me. if you want it just let me know ill get it and you can pay me back i wont charge you extra
  18. ill get around to it eventually. i need to adjust my headlights still and bolt my front bumper on
  19. heres my new foglights. placed sleekly in the grill and grill and lights are renforced with loctight and lockwashers. sure helps those mountain drives! enjoy )ps: sorry for the crappy camara phone pics. )
  20. i think it has the door panels yes. looked complete, just old. bed was in excellent shape
  21. i like how i can see your foot print for comparsion
  22. out of curiousity. where does that resistor go?
  23. my car did that when it had a dead bat. try jumping your car as well
