Hi everyone,

This is my first post! I got a problem...I have a 1982 GL2WD 5speed station wagon-earlier this week it started to make a ticking sound;now it's turned into a very loud sputter. It seems to be coming from the drivers side-I'm thinking exhaust system but I'm not an expert(just learning the ins and outs of engines)...any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Looks like you are in my area..... hard to say what your noise could be, but it definately could be exhaust. If you brought it by some time I'm sure I could diagnose it pretty easily. Drop me a PM if your interested. RitchieRich here on the board has a shop in Portland too.... if you want to just pay someone to fix it.

I fixed it!!! Loose bolts from exhaust manifold to exhaust pipe-thanks for all the good advice
