  1. LMAO I would be saying every few minutes "I want this one and this one and this one" you guys sometimes get the coolest things darn EPA and DOT and government in general for this issue.......................................... oh yeah as for the Ford Probe thing My wife used to have one and it was a rather good running car only problem with it was the clutch but she had it replaced just before she decided to sell it and I liked driving at insane speeds and going through the twisties with that thing too but oh well I have something with all wheel drive goodness that can do the twisties pretty good now and goes like stink too
  2. as for the Starting problem sounds like a problem I had with my 86 GL 4wd and it was traced down to old wiring from the shifter sensors for the neutral safety switch so I made a bypass by getting a relay and attaching the power wire from the actuation side of the relay and ran it to ground while having a wire from the battery going to the switch side then to the solenoid where that power wire was disconnected the power wire I am talking about is the one that is about 18ga wire that actualy actuates the solenoid and starts the starter and another thing you can do is take the starter out and disect the solenoid and clean the 2 copper contacts that are inside and also inspect them for excessive amounts of erosion as for the wheel bearings if you want to try this it has worked on my 83 so far for 6000 miles is get sealed bearings IIRC the generic bearing # is 6702 or something like that (if you have a bearing floating around look on the outer race for a 4 digit # etched into the sidewall that starts with a 6 or if need be if I remember to look tonight at work I can get the exact # cause I found them there) and you can find them at bearing stores and Grangers they are a lil spendy but they are hermeticaly sealed so no moisture can get inside if that is the case your having (rusty colored grease compared to slate grey color)
  3. well here in oregon it would hafta be like OZ-FIED or something like that cause we can only have 6 letters and a hyphen and that's it lol it could even be a few of us if we wanted to play around with the lettering a bit OZFIED OZIFID OZD OZIFIY OZED BYB-OZD can't think of any others
  4. well the rear bearings are a thing with imps when you get it look for legacy rear wheel bearings cause they are heavier duty and for the sway bar it might just be the bushings are going out and/or those cheap looking Zytel links are failing so be a good idea to get some good urethane bushings to replace them with
  5. well if you turn on MSNM some people might talk to you lol
  6. oh yeah forgot to mention since it is a Auto if the exaust smell isn't sweet it could be ATF being sucked into the motor through the modulator valve cause it has gone out but with what you have said it could be the coolant then if you had moisture coming out of one of the sparkplug holes
  7. it was a joke I threw out there cause of 91loyale saying something about limbs and cost in the same sentance lol so it would prolly cost a couple arms and legs too lol
  8. ok well to make sure have you smelt the exaust? is it actualy a sweet smell of glycol? then if it is yeah a head gasket and for the headgasket replacement you will have to pull the motor and I would recommend getting a repair manual even though some of the guys are gonna shun me for saying this get the haynes manual cause it's better than the chiltons and just follow it especialy in the torqueing of the heads and I would recommend doing both of them. and a warning be careful when pulling the motor to not pull the torque converter out with it and also the intake bolts due to age and stuff might be hard to remove so take your time and don't snap them and when you put it back together a good anti-seaze lube would be a good idea for that
  9. good deal and I like the way the lights are sat up too!!! and for the word of mouth that has worked for me alot of times including 2 of the subies I have now 76 was a trade from a 78 dodge D-100 that I got for free and the 83 was offered to me from a guy at work for $150!! and I am still driving it
  10. Close! the Original NFS on the Original original Playstation (the one that took 2 mins or more to load anything at all for a game)
  11. there is a guy down here in the Milwaukie area that is the original owner of a 83 t-wagon that has only like 60,000 original miles I have talked to the guy twice now adn the last time he caught me with my OBS and he was in awe but I am in awe that he has that T-wagon all original and low mileage too
  12. Damn CRX's are always in the way! betcha don't know which racing game had that curse bestowed on it
  13. So how many limbs would it take to get to the center of a 3rd gen legacy? LMAO had to do it sorry but how many limbs would it take to get one of those trannys from over there and then shipped over here
  14. you know what when in Washington heading south on I-5 south of Oly you see the darnedist things sometimes besides subies of course like the first time I drove up to Port Orchard (yes I know right next to B-ton) with my 76 on the way back down I saw no less than 8 DeLoreans!!!! all in a line too and then saw some exotics go through also all heading north
  15. Mike if you want me to I can swing by sometime soon and help you with that dilema and bring a 10 lb sledge with me too cause that will fix the rubbing issues pretty well an oh yeah I am holding your carbs for ransom too so better call me in the mornin sometime
