Hi USMB members. I'm Almostborncanadian and new to the USM Board.   I have a stock '94 Loyale 4WD wagon 85,000 miles.  I mounting up some snow tires in 4x140 13" (165/80R13) for the approaching northern Minnesota winter. Thank you to members who were helping me look for used wheels. Seems like shipping makes used wheels pretty spendy. I also have a horrible dead turd smell emanating from my heat blower.  REALLY nasty.  I'll be looking for a dead mouse "up there",  The car has been driven 45 mph max by two old school teachers.  I think the muffler sounds constricted like it is full of rust.  And one of the rubber boots covering the joint attached to the front transmission is torn wide open,  Otherwise we are in pretty good condition.  I look forward to learning from the group and fighting off the urge to spend big bucks on this old car.  I tried to attach photos but they exceed the 2 MB limit.

 

Enjoy the venture! 
Many of us, the few still left here after the great FB saturation, have turned the pages on the EA82 era. Lucky for you i think there’s a current active member with a wealth of EA82 experience. 
 

I sure had mine, but i’m pretty much a user and abuser a backyard mechanic. 
 

Don’t be afraid to attack that heater unit. Pretty sure i did a write up on removing the dashboard and heater or accessing it for the core swap. That will also allow duct cleaning, flapper door re-foaming, general bleach n water wipedown, let it sit and do it a second time some would say. 

Still have a fairly good quantity of Eighties "box" or EA-82 parts, most left now, are smaller items, that will ship easily enough.    Most of the larger items, to include parts wagon, have been disposed of, or sold off, due to difficulty in finding homes for them, and the LOGISTICS.     You can always browse my ads, I do keep them current, and can do package deals on remaining items.
