1987 DL damp weather power fades
nipper replied to StrobeWylan's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
snorkle motor is a vacume motor in the snorkle that opens and closes the door, its a diaphram. The temps switch is in the air cleaner itself. Follow the vac line back from the door motor and it will take you right to it. nipper -

http://auto.howstuffworks.com/steering2.htm Its one of those things you dont notice till you dont have it. Tires can have a lot to do with the twitchyness of the steering, along with inflation. nipper -
There are two kinds of interfernce fits, one is done by heat (or cold) and the other is a press fit. They are not interchangable as one has a larger tolerance then the other. Heat fit is a much larger dimensional change then a press fit, and may warp the part. It takes alot of heat (more then mots people have available to them) to heat up a chunk of metal properly. Of course then there is that entire OWOWOWOWOHOT thing nipper

i actually find some a bit disturbing. When you turn the key to start, for a split second nothing happens. Some of them are going to that really cool "start" button not because they are cool, but because the time it takes you to go from inserting/turning/entering the car to pressing the button, is enough for the computers to boot up. nipper -

It can take a revolution sometimes just for the computer to figure out where the pistons are. Back then you just needed the points to open and close once. nipper -

and some newer cars even have to boot-up the computers first. nipper
