January 26, 201115 yr Awesome! That's the "Second Gen Leone" Official Ski Team Car, you can see the Ad on the Post Nº 710 of this Thread... (where also you can find the Ad for the First Gen Leone Ski Team Car, and the Third Gen Leone, -a.k.a: Loyale- Ski Team Car.) I Guess who owns it Now... Cool! I miss the one I had... I talked with a guy high up in the US Ski Team association, and there were hundreds of the ski team cars that providd to them. most of the time the decals were removed before they were sold off, but not all of them....
January 26, 201115 yr adjusted the valves on Grizzly, and found a vac cap that had a crack in it... ir runs much better now and I can almost use 4th gear now, just not on the interstate... still not enough oomph to pull the tires/wheels....
January 28, 201115 yr PIcked up a set of used 4 EuroWinter M+S for the GL, mounted and balanced for some snow fun. At least until April, then they will have to be de-studded:
January 29, 201115 yr We have ALL been waiting for this... Okay I have been waiting for this... :cool:
January 29, 201115 yr Its stock. May leave this color and just repaint it to match (has some spots that need some work and paint seems to be fading on hood) Peugeot 15 inch wheels on 195/60/15 just put on today - need to get them actually painted, but having the tread on these tires is REALLY good since the other ones (for sale forum) had very bad tread on front right tire.
January 29, 201115 yr Thank you, I love this Sedan. Still a baby, just rolled to 168k today... Need to do an Oil change in next few days, pretty sure its last one was just after 165k
January 29, 201115 yr On my drive home the other day, I found the temp gauge wandering around on my blue 87 wagon. Found the fans were not doing their job. Rewired the fans and put them on their own circuit - happy fans now! Having CEL issues on the same car - CEL on while sitting at the stop light, touch throttle and CEL goes off. Check for codes after drive - nothing. Car sometimes bogs badly at part throttle with no CEL and no codes. Stupid heat cooked 20 year old EFI....
January 29, 201115 yr I have the GL on jackstands, and a 4-speed trans on the workbench.... In about 50 pieces. Silly input shaft seal....................
January 29, 201115 yr Here is a better picture - before and after of Ned. His old wheels are for sale in the for sale section if any interest arises. 3 amazing tires, one is shot (from front right suspension issue) Before: After:
January 29, 201115 yr Why thank you I hope so. Gotta pass the GD test still, I dont know if he will like it but I hope so lol
January 30, 201115 yr I pulled my engine out tonight and put it on a stand. All went pretty smooth. Now I need to tear into the ea82t and see what is causing it to not turn over. I'm concerned because of the 5 years it sat and prob rusted up the rings. So if anyone has an ea82t longblock in the southern Oregon area give me a holler! I'll prob be needing one.
January 30, 201115 yr Swapped fuel gauges around tonight in my Legacy, and still no read out. I guess the sending unit is crap, anyone know if it is removable from the pump?
January 30, 201115 yr Crank or cam broke in the brat today. the part were the distributor connects. completely broke off. stuck a screw driver down there and it moves around. Im looking for a new engine so the brat will never die! I guess after I do the engine swap Ill put the broken engine up for sale/trade if anybody wants to fix it. its out of my skill level to fix it. SJ
January 30, 201115 yr Why thank you I hope so. Gotta pass the GD test still, I dont know if he will like it but I hope so lol Did you get this car from GD? He had one that looked exactly like that. is it a DR 5speed?
January 30, 201115 yr Yes this is Ned, GDs old 1986 GL. D/R 5 speed. I love this car, hes seen me buy cars that werent worth what Ive paid, so he gave me a great deal
January 31, 201115 yr Removed stock turbo exhaust (Stock midpipe and axle back) from the blue green 94SS removed fart can 3" exhaust (midpipe and axle back are one welded unit) from the maroon 94SS Swapped them from one car to the other, and reinstalled. Both on frozen ice/frozen concrete driveway. Its nice working on rust free cars. No broken bolts, nothing comes apart hard. After all is said and done, wonder if i should have had the blue green inspected before I made it the loud one. Hope salvage rebuilt inspection does not care about exhaust stuffs:banghead: Same day also removed 2 doors and tilt from a 78 Firechicken had to add that in, it was a long cold day. Started the day with a drive in the BAJA to go get some groceries. Tested out the newly installed tweeter kit. Started the BRAT first time in about 1month and 3 weeks. It was happy to get some gas flowing thru the weber. Edited January 31, 201115 yr by bheinen74
