another blown hg
Well, it sounds like you have a pinhole leak in one of the heater hoses. The best way to find it get it hot then take a flashlight and see if you can figure out which one it is.

Public Flogging Time (Or, what to do if:)
Oh yeah, I'm not afraid to get my other rigs dirty either This was after WCSS6.

Public Flogging Time (Or, what to do if:)
Not as dirty as it could be, but it was a start. This is the day after I got it home, and promptly got it stuck. Stupid open diff You guys that complain about the mud need to set your rigs up so it doesnt get every where. Plug all the holes that go into the interior, use bigger skid plates, dont hit the puddle @ 40mph, etc. If your a clean freak, go back to the street

EA82T Pull / Reseal / Revamp Part I
Give me a call, I might be able to help (a little bit)

rear disk brakes
The XT6 will not work for yours unless you are doing the 5 lug swap, complete. Any EA82 2wd rear disc brakes will work, but none came with a rear e-brake.

You didnt mention how much newer the replacement engine is? From what year car?

Yet another Question on the 84
Sorry, I should have said the latch was on the rear of glass like Sweet stated. I had a 84 GL with a OEM sunroof, I think it was a option but stock on the GL-10's. So yes, the sunroof you have sounds like its aftermarket.

Well, the next time we are all together we'll just have to make sure we box him in and give him the "treament" Thats if theres enough mud around.

Msd vs. Accel coil
I suggest doing a search of the board here, that should give you lots of opinions about Accel (they suck)

another blown hg
What do you mean by a high pressure leak? Where is the leak coming from and what is leaking, water or air? Is there evidence of water in the oil (milkshake) or oil in the water? Is it overheating? We need more details.

Ea 81 turbo
The EA81T pistons are cupped or dished for lower compression. Also, the fuel injectors are in the heads above each sparkplug.

Where are rims for a 82 GL wagon 14''
These are all the wheels that will fit your car. Your best bet would be to find some Peugeuot wheels. They come in 14" steels or 14"/15" alloys. Heres a link to the wheels page. Wheels page

Yet another Question on the 84
Yes, they did have a optional sunroof for 84. It should have one latch in the front center to be OEM, and it should be removable. I have a OEM peice of glass for the hole if your interested.

longview washington sand drags anyone? sign in time added
Uh, my "other one" is stock. I think I still have some rear air shocks, it would need something different up front tho.

It just came to me, there was a guy at WCSS3 with a XT6 that had paddle wheels. Qman actually bought what was left of the car this year after the owner rolled it. Him and Zap got rides, they have stories about that.

Question For The Day: HLA Ticking (TOD) and lash adjuster orientation
Well, how about this? This diagram shows the galleries for the HLA's and also a relief valve that is in each cam case. I wonder if the relief valve could be part of the problem. It gets quite a bath from the looks of it and maybe with enough sludge it could stick open a little. Enough that, if the HLA is lined up in the gallery correctly it could drain out a small amount of oil, thus creating the tick at startup. Altho this doesnt explain the tick that doesnt go away without some cleaning agent. This might be caused by the gallery getting clogged with sludge also.

Huh. Interesting distributor failure (with pics)
That looks more like a 6yr old cap. I wouldnt replace it with the same brand, warranty or not :-\
