  1. well gary I think you are a lonely old man that likes to *************** about little things. sometimes when you are a frustrated subie owner all you can say is HELP. Your negative remarks to some posts, (ie about saying things the way people should post or how to title a post) really makes for unenjoyable reading. if your that grumpy about this stuff stop reading the posts or learn some patience. I am speaking for myself of course. sorry to all other readers for jumping this post. Jim
  2. so do you see possible problems with this? if so what are they? Jim
  3. well just finished putting new heads on my 88 gl10t. even after reading all the posts on this subjectI neglected to blow out all the galleries on the cam towers. I learned a lesson though . just because I was very careful in putting on the sealant between the cam tower and head didn't mean that it was a cinch,not by any means. after pulling r head I found no (visible) reason my lifters wouldn't pump up. so I started to blow air everywhere in the oil system, and behold a blob of three different colors of sealants came flying out of the main journal for the cam tower. this must have been in the system since before I got the car. I really didn't like the thought of having this possibly happening again so I found a way around the goop. I went to the oring building kit and got a long oversized piece, some superglue gel and some clamps. I placed a small dot of glue and began stretching around the groove placing dots of glue ocassionaly. the I placed my support oring with a couple more dots of glue. put her back in the car , not a problem yet.
  4. I have a bunch of ea82spfi parts, and actually a whole car 91 loyale.come up to deadwood and I'll hook ya up. Jim
  5. had that nasty clunk and it turned out to be a broken shock. couldn't see any damage, even after removing it. replaced it and no more noise.
  6. with my 88gl10t I have had to go around and repair the ground wires. I use a shakeproof lock washer in between every wire and the body with some anti corrosion grease. works quite well. Jim
  7. ok so you guys are losing voltage regulators, why are they going? I have been driving and working on subs since the mid seventies and I have never had an alternator problem.(must be why I have 2-3 laying around) anyway what is causing this? Jim
  8. has anyone done this? I have access to a motor and tranny from a xt6. Jim
  9. I have a used ea82t clutch. it's used but should have 50k left. you pay shipping and you owe me jim
  10. what about the wasted fuel washing the non firing cylinder? Jim
  11. on my gl10t i had a leak on the cooling system that turned out to be turbo cooling system. is this leak on the pass or drivers side? Jim
  12. according to the fsm DO NOT DO IT. YOU RUN THE RISK OF FRYING SEVERAL DIFFERERENT SYSTEMS. Jim
  13. I had the same problem on my 88 gl found out that the head on one side was cracked into the water jacket. she would heat up right quick. I had no signs of coolant burn on the plugs, valves looked quite different. Jim
  14. thanks I'll try your suggestions. you any relation to glenn gross?
