having problems which sucks
bajavwnsoobnut replied to bajavwnsoobnut's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
yeah just talked to Hondasucks about that and I will try doing that in the mornin if that isn't the case Ed will get a email saying send down that Weber cause of I am tired of the Hitasucky crap and would like a nice simple carb to work on that will work better oh yeah also when running and in that state I push open the choke plate and it revs higher which is wierd on it's own -
k this is for my 83 GL wagon with the EA-81 and hitasucky 2bbl carb Well it all started a few weeks ago the engine would idle at 1500-2000 rpm and I went through a 3/4 tank of gas in less than 70 miles, well I tried spraying the crap out of the carb and also doing a "$1.45 tuneup" (basicaly reving it up and then covering the carbs mouth till it dies down to almost dying). both with no luck next tried to adjust the throttle cable with no luck today put carb from spare motor on (motor came from a 83 GL wagon 4wd auto) and it was running a little rough at first with alot of smoke spewing out but cleared up and after a lil bit of spraying and the tuneup method mentioned up above it idled alright but notice the choke plate was closed same with the other carb and did a vold meter check and got 4-5 volts going to the choke element and oh yeah it ran wonderfuly but rev it then let it go back to idle it would rev at 1500 rpm again but blurp the gas and would go back to idle about 1/2 mile from home it kept dying instead of idling so kept the pedal alive till I got to the gas station and adjusted the idle screw till it idled at about 800 rpm or so went to drive it up to brads (subie_styles) new place and ran good on the freeway but after getting off the freeway at idle it would run at normal idle, 1500, 2000, or 2500 rpm and sometimes if I blurped the gas it would go back to normal idle well now it's back to the same ol 1500-2000 rpm I am gettin pissed at this anyone know what the heck is going on? I am about to ask Ed to ship down that Weber and rebuilding it then semi desmoging the motor and putting it on if the answer is going to be anything involving the carb at all and if I do what is the average or optimal jetting's for the Weber 32/36 DGV carb for going onto a EA-81 oh yeah also forgot if I get it to idle decently it bounces around the RPM from 600-1200 rpm approx

Should I buy?? How much?
bajavwnsoobnut replied to 4RnrRick's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
what do you mean by hub? is it bad wheel bearings in the front? or is it demolished which I would rather doubt or are you talking about the hub that attaches to the brake rotor? -

well I know of one board member that was planning on doing a Dual Kadron (I sold the set I had to him and he should be getting to them hopefuly soon cause it has been what 3 years now? and they are solex carbs for those that were/are not veewee heads lol) and for syncronizing them they are easy and keeping them there too same as with Dellortos (the best carb out there and bummer they don't make them anymore be perfect for the subie) but webers they are very troublesome when sat up for dual carbs and you need to be a swiss watchmaker to make sure they are defanatley sync'd together -
Happy greetings from South Africa

bajavwnsoobnut replied to 88rxsedan's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
me neither for the most part lol traded a dodge truck for the 76 though and if I was offered a 944 for the 83............... mods would be done to the poormans porsche -
well with my experience with moving ALOT it does suck but hey you are going to a new place really soon and after you unpack things will be sat right again oh and on a side note my wife gets off work @ 2:30 so I might be a lil late cause I am gonna take the Imp instead of the 83 and also try to bring the wife along with

steering wheel adapters??
bajavwnsoobnut replied to Rooinater's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I think it was 40 bucks for the installation kit for a grant steering wheel but it can be found cheaper maybe at some good discount parts houses -
Pedal assemblies are the Devil!!!

the silver bracket that that rod is mounted onto just unbolt it IIRC there are only like 6-8 bolts holding it in place -

RX ralley car, engine bay, gutting
bajavwnsoobnut replied to sheppie62's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
it's about 40 lbs +/- 10 lbs for the system but keep the PS cause that is not much weight and doesn't sap much powere either and take off the mechanical fan and install a second electric fan -
my dad used to cook C rations on the turbine generators that they had and they cooked up pretty well too

dual optima yellowtops would be elite!!! cause they are drycell (some consider them gel cells) instead of lead acid batts which means NO WATER and might even think of running ATF in the tranny even though I dunno how the center diff would take it unless are they sealed? but yeah think of the ATF thing cause I used to have a camry that had that for the manual tranny and a manual tranny would be better for reliability and oh yeah if a open diff in the back is used try the ATF thing on that too cause it is somewhat light but lubricates well

If it was a LSD would I give it away? NO! lol and you have mail

ignition switch '87 brat /tumbler removal
bajavwnsoobnut replied to DaveAP's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
ok yeah there are 3 or 4 philips screws underneath the steering column and take those out and the bottom should drop out if the tilt steering is tilted up and then tilt the steering down to remove the top piece guys he was talking about the screws for the trim not the lock assy itself -
My 78 Brat won't start!!!
