Bennie you have a pic of yours

mine is all original and i have had it since new. I just cant remember if there was something it slip into. I dont think it just hangs loose

1984 Brat with 1.8. Guys where the preheater hose from the bottom of the air filter go once it leaves the air filter housing. Most run to the exhaust somewhere. Am i missing a bracket or what. Its the silver looking hose that looks like a small dryer vent hose.

dealt with this recently. ON mine the wires to the coil were loose

fuel stop/choke

just replaced a drivers side axle with a new one. Starting clicking in a few miles. It does happen . not doing it in fwd is kinda odd

HAd the same problem on my 84. The squirter that sprays into the bowl was clogged. It is so small an orifice that we actually had to use a wire from a wire brush to open it up and clean out the gunk. No wonder it can clog being so small. Old ethanol gas is what caused mine. We also redrilled the lever from the accelerator pump to the throttle linkage so it dumps i little more gas at first throttle. Im getting ready to actually rebuild the carb again by letting t soak all night in solvent and get a carb drill to open it up a little more. I have driven it a little over a 1000 miles since the rebuild and as long as dont try to run it wide open it is just fine at highway speeds. Hopes this help

are you running the stock air cleaner? if so there is a thermo valve on the air cleaner bottom. Mine would run fine until it got warm. This thing would open up and cause a huge vacuum leak. Just plug it.

okay the main bracket from the motor was !80 off .im back in business. Thanks for the help

thanks. I think somehow he must have removed the two attachment point rods that go to the motor. They start out counter clockwise when you first turn them on

i realize this is an odd request. I think my painter put the wiper arms for the motor on in some weird way that i cannot get the wipers to operate correctly or park in the right position. It appears to be wired back correctly since there is okly one way to plug it back in. When you hit the wiper switch the wiper motor is pulling the wipers down. Anyone have a picture with the cowl panel removed so i can see how they are supposed to be attached when they are in the park position

thanks. ill give it a shot

its the rear of an e81(84) model. I have a clicking from the left rear one

I think i have a rear CV joint going bad. Of course the front ones are a dime a dozen. Anyone have a source for the rear or a rebuilder?

did only the ttops brats have the targa stripe that went all the way across. Nice BRAT. I actually like the door molding. I dont recall seeing that on 2 many. If i can get him to contact me ill order some

the indyworld decals are kind of plan compared to the guy in Washington state. Thanks for the info. brsignand design is the ebay company. I just cannot get them to call or respond to emails

thanks. Im actually look for a 2 color since i am restoring my dads brat to original. I would like to have a set red leters to cover the 4WD on the mudflap

anyone bought decals from the guy one EBAY? Tried to call him and email him with no results. How decent quality are they? Anyone else who does them?

I had a similar problem when i was building mine. If you have a stick air air cleaner there is a thermo valve that opens up once it is warm and it creates a huge vacuum leak, plugged it off and no more problems. It would run and idle great when cold but once it warmed up i had the same issues you are dealing with. Just a suggestion since i chased all the other issues down ... filters gas etc. Also in the carb the orifice that squirts the gas into the carb is extremely small. It does not take muck to clog it up. HAd to use a wire from a wire wheel brush to clean it out.

some still show op from time to time on rockauto. I think Gabriel brand is what most of us end up using when you find them

Thanks for the reply. Ill see if i can find my old ones. Mine is just the hard board. Im not sure what it came with from the factory

are the muddflaps on an 84 brat just held in with the plastic rivets? Been so long since i removed them for paint i cannot remember. Also is the headliner just the board with no cloth?

no rtv just make a paper gasket
