January 12, 200719 yr what greens did the ea82 models come in? i know theres the tea green but did they ever make a forest green? or any other greens. the car im looking at has an extra 1800 engine and has timing chains? is this a ej18 im thinking? but just got the shibby on the car. 170k aftermarket forest green matelic 85 gl D/R. mint body supposdely. AWESOME COLOR!
January 13, 200719 yr called "Herb" or "Harb" green can't remember which wheels no wheels loaded down
January 13, 200719 yr I always liked that shade of green...Never had one though..My subes have been Silver (88GL wagon) 2 were grey ( 90 Justy and my 88 XT6) maroon ( 82 GLF) and white ( Bucky!) hummm..nother thought on color choice for the 6
January 13, 200719 yr Author im looking at one right now with a dark metalic green aftermarket paint. super good looking! so im kinda excited and its a gl with the dr too does anyone know which if any engines came with timing chains?
January 13, 200719 yr None of them. All EA, EJ, and EG engines have belts. So they are full of $hit. EA81's and earlier are gear driven. GD

I had about 700 pounds of stuff in my car on the way back:clap: I have only seen 4 in this color now. Is that a factory sun roof?

January 13, 200719 yr Yeah, sunroofs were a factory option on at least the '85 year. I had a GL with the digital dash and factory sunroof, and very little rust... engine went and I got rid of it, which I now regret. I think that's more than 700lbs. I've had 1,000 lbs of batteries (14 golf cart batteries, 86lbs each) in mine, and it didn't squat down that low. Awfully slow on hills though Hey you stole my car:banana: But mines not a turbo and thats the way it looked when I moved from AZ to PA.

January 14, 200719 yr Author looks good i liek that color. found out the one im looking at has a aftermarket dark emrald green matalic paint
January 14, 200719 yr Author i was also curious if just gl's came with sunroofs? or was that a gl10 thing
January 14, 200719 yr i was also curious if just gl's came with sunroofs? or was that a gl10 thing Depends on how it was orderd. You could get a GL with almost everything that a GL10 came with.
January 14, 200719 yr None of them. All EA, EJ, and EG engines have belts. So they are full of $hit. EA81's and earlier are gear driven. GD Actually, the new H6s do have timing chains. They used them so they can make the total length of the engine smaller. The chain is smaller that a belt.
January 14, 200719 yr Actually, the new H6s do have timing chains. They used them so they can make the total length of the engine smaller. The chain is smaller that a belt. Those are EZ series aren't they?
January 15, 200719 yr Those are EZ series aren't they? correct. just as GD said, all EA82, EJ and EG (EG33, SVX motor) had belts. the EZ30s have chains. that way they're only one inch longer than an EJ22E
January 15, 200719 yr You have a golf course with a bunch of golf carts? Nah. I hate golf. We use them for photovoltaic systems all the time though.
January 16, 200719 yr correct. just as GD said, all EA82, EJ and EG (EG33, SVX motor) had belts. the EZ30s have chains. that way they're only one inch longer than an EJ22E The EJ25 Belt is so Huge... Its unbelieveable.... woah big word to type.. who knows if i got it right.... i have to go liedown.
January 16, 200719 yr I thought the new H6 engines (EJ33?) had a timing chain? Obviously this isn't one of those though.... I thought the ER27 had chains. But I'm not sure. I've seen a cut away EZ30 on a cut away auto trans. And it did have timing chains.. Althought I thought the EG33 also had chains..
January 16, 200719 yr I thought the ER27 had chains. But I'm not sure.I've seen a cut away EZ30 on a cut away auto trans. And it did have timing chains.. Althought I thought the EG33 also had chains.. ER27 has the same front end setup (water pump, timing belts, cam sprockets, oil pump etc. etc.) as an EA82. also pistons, rods, and valves. ditto EG33 to an EJ22. here's a cool piece of trivia....did you know an EG33 is closed deck? AND has the same bore as an EJ22....so custom pistons would be easy.
January 16, 200719 yr Author well its official the guys an idoit. he described it and it sounds like a ea81 by color of valve covers whatnot but it had timing chains. i think im gonna pass on the spare engine haha
January 16, 200719 yr well its official the guys an idoit. A real Idoit, he is? sorry, had to point it out. no harm intended
