rammstein Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Ok I don't know if I am posting in the right area but here is the history. 88 Comanche Pioneer short bed, all stock. 150 AMC married to an AX5. Dana 35 rear end 2WD. Interior/exterior in good condition. Clean under the hood and under-body, no rust. Sat in the woods for 10 years. New brakes, hoses, belt, air filter, exhaust. Changed oil right off the bat; idled at least 50 miles during initial diagnostics while running marvel in oil, fuel and a few drops in cylinders. Then filled fuel tank, changed oil twice and new filter. Engine sounds great except uneven idle. No oil on driveway ... Horrible death wobble at 45, yet to rule out tires. New concentric bearing on ax5. Not the right hub/ knuckle on 2wd front end, rotor on that side shot, the inside brake pad had to be cut to fit and the new rotor was not a match. Rotated drive shaft 180 and new u-joints to no effect. So either tires and or bushings. Overheating; pump is OK so thermostat next. Also no external or internal leaks of oil or coolant. Also big issue with oil sumping into air filter but baffle in v-cover is OK. Think air leakage is causing a bumping effect due to rotten grommet. Update: New thermostat; still overheats without boil over, I know the oil is getting too hot because lifters start to flatten and get mechanical noise, using 10w-30, in process of checking oil pressure... Looking for a breather/oil separator that will fit to replace the direct air filter hose connector but cannot seem to find one. Thanks and keep truckin!
