wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 I couldnt figure out what kind of transmission it has in it.. shouldnt there be a plate somewhere? also having a hard time finding the EGR valve
fiatslug87 Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 My guess is '89 with the BA10/5. What, no one is saying anything about the Fram oil filter?
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 Lol knew someone would say something about the fram this is how I got the rig... 400$ its 1989 4.0 5 speed Manual 2wd
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 3 of the plugs weren't pushed all the way down on the distributor when i worked on it today I cleaned the TB and all the ground points I was going to drive it today but I broke the neg terminal connectior bolt and didnt have a spare with me. Hopefully I can drive it tuesday. Also was wondering if anyone can tell me how to put clutch oil in this thing
13 Legion Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 $400? Post some pics of your rig. Let's check it out.
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 those are all the pics I got right now its not at my house its at a friends house where I'm working on it till I get My new house hopefully next weekend near his house. I will be working on it tuesday maybe depending on the weather. In my other post there are some exterior pics
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 sorry I was wrong here are the exterior photos
Rockfrog Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 EGR valve is on the side of the intake manifold directly below the throttle body on the outer edge. Beside that is the EGR transducer. Adding clutch fluid ... DOT 3 brake fluid ... Goes into the clutch master cylinder reservoir. Behind the washer fluid bottle, besides the brake booster ... Whiteish yellow cap in your picture.
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 good to know cause its on the low mark I wasnt sure what that little res was for now I do thanks a bunch. The person that owned this said he didnt want it anymore cause it started to stall when pressing the clutch in and coming to a stop or slowing down to take a turn.. when I worked on it today i pulled the oil dipstick and it only had about .5 inch on the stick...Being that low is enough to make it stall from not enough oil pressure? Not sure.. But I cleaned the throttle body today it was black and pulled the air filter it was also black and oily towards the back of the box. Planning on making a oil catch, does anyone have pics of theirs?
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 Also I did see the EGR just wasnt sure if it was it or not. I didnt see any bolts holding it in posistion how to remove it? very tight in this location. If I remove the airbox cover all the hoses will need to be replace most likely cause there is a decent amount deterioration where the hoses connects to the box (all of them)
Marine1Texas Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 if your clutch fluid was low, you may have a leak. make sure it is not leaking in side down behind you fuse panel. it can cause problems and eat up some stuff on fuse box.
wutangwisdom Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 Yes I will check that tuesday This truck has no interior upolstry on the floors, so I would think I would have seen a puddle ?
13 Legion Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 I have RMS leak. Haven't changed it yet. I do notice though when oil starts getting low it runs a lot rougher and wants to die out. Monitor that oil level!!
fiatslug87 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Your grill is upside down. :) And how did it get a crease that large in the roof? Rolled?
Rockfrog Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 I was wondering too, at first I thought it was a soft top mod ... Then I looked closer :eek:
wutangwisdom Posted June 15, 2015 Author Posted June 15, 2015 these questions I cannont answer its how i got the beast
wutangwisdom Posted June 15, 2015 Author Posted June 15, 2015 anyone tell me what the crunched black boot behind the shock in picture 5 is called? One thing about this comanche is all the electrical connections are shiny almmost like someone redid the electrical at some point in its life. .
wutangwisdom Posted June 15, 2015 Author Posted June 15, 2015 think it needs replacing? where can i find one Ive looked to no resolve
Marine1Texas Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 for those air bags do you have a pump on the truck for them? or do you manually have to pump it with compressor? you should check to see if they hold air. just because it looks the way it does, does not mean it does not work. I had a Lincoln one time that had air bags that would allow lowering all the way to the ground, and also making it look like a 3 inch lift. it had a pump with no leveler control. You pumped it manually with a switch on the dash.
wutangwisdom Posted June 15, 2015 Author Posted June 15, 2015 This is no lincoln... lol i doubt there is a switch on the dash and I don't believe there are any lines running to these air supports
wutangwisdom Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 anyone able to decipher which transmission this is by the terrible picture? One person says its the BA 10/5 anyone else back that up ? would the engine date help figure this out? or is that just pertain to the engine?
Marine1Texas Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 looks like a BA10/5. for air bags to work you will need to find out how they fill up!
