Wow, great job. Gets me motivated to work on my interior. About to gut it to install some sound deadening.

Thanks! I plan on sound deadening it this summer. The interior is just as mint.

She hasn't been washed in over a year! Darn you deployment. She shines up real nice...

I was pretty happy with mine at 54K at the start of last year. Then I had to drive a lot, just clicked over 70K last week.

Would anyone be kind enough to email the pictures of these shirts/hoodies to my personal email. Most of the internet, including pictures is blocked here in Afghanistan. Definetely interested! chadwharton at gmail dot com

Same thing happened to me, thought my terminals were clean, but they werent completely shiny... I really scrubbed them up good and havent had the same problem yet.

SOLVED! Sigh, i'm learning, so don't beat me up too bad. I couldn't figure out why it was surging so bad, and coughing when i turned it off. and your suggestions were great. So i buried my nose back in the Chilton. Looked at the Carb Looked at the Chilton. Looked at the carb. sigh. somewhere along the line, my throttle return spring must have broken. Never noticed it was gone. $6.82 later. 10 seconds of install time. life is good. In fact, better than before. Way better power delivery. Idles wonderfully, and now that the throttle plate closes. No cough. Woo! Ridiculous. the little things.

thanks! Ill try both of those solutions./

Ok, finally installed the carb that Tbrand graciously donated. It took me forever to find the time, and then even more time to get a gasket in. (which turned out to be wrong anyways) and a lot of elbow grease today. Pros: New carb seems to help the car run smoother. Not sure how to quantify, just smoother.\ Shifts better... How this has anything to do with the carb is beyond me Cons: Needs to be tuned, pulls wayyy too hard. STILL Chugs along after being turned off. So, it may not be the carburetor after all any more ideas?

Welcome, where in Wa are you? Gig Harbor here. Seems to be a lot on this forum

PM'd! With the carb acting up, would that have any correlation with the oil pressure? or is that probably a separate issue with similar timing. appreciate any help folks! thanks so far!

Any ideas? 86' Manche with 66k. 2.8L Obviously each one is probably impossible to diagnose over a forum, but together maybe you can see a pattern i am not experienced with. 1. Car has been idling roughly lately... like for last 1000mi (yeah i know tsk tsk). When driving its great, just not when idling. [most tune-up type items have been replaced in last 5k miles] 2. last few hundred miles my oil pressure gauge has been wacky. ill be driving along, minding my own business, and look down and see the guage pegged to the right... after i slow down, or sometimes on its own, it will just swiftly shoot back to the normal center... 3. Last couple days, (and getting worse)... whenever i shut it off after driving it for a while, it tries to run for a second or two, tonight it ran for a good 3 seconds after turning key off. [ best i could find from google is "dieseling" ideas? thoughts? Thanks!

I have those too... anyone?

Jeez! Heck of a project, good luck. I was glad to find one completely rust free. can't say that about my last cancer-ridden comanche. Keep up the good work.

How often have yall used the light? i never can seem to find a use for it... maybe tailgating? i definetely never need to look on my bed on a pitch black night... anyways, rambling

3si? lol

Kind of a random classified post but I'm getting frustrated window shopping and craigslist browsing so i figured id pose ot to fellow comanche'ers/ (sp?) anyways, I'm looking to downsize, but upgrade my home theater sound. going from some really nice floorstanding ones to some nice bookshelf speakers, and possibly a more powerful amp/reciever. anyone have any good audio stuff sitting in a closet that theyve been to busy to post on craigslist or locally? let me know, maybe we can work something out! thanks for looking Chad

Good luck on your search. they pop all the time on our craigslist. Work in the Tacoma area myself so welcome!

Oh man, if you picked it up, good on ya! i was considering it for a while

That is absolutely awesome. gives me some ideas!
