Muncher Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 We have a interior! Carpet did not end up the best because I had no mockup so some areas got cut short but luckily I can cover them up. A pillar peices will stay off for now because ill either replace my dash or paint it. Not sure yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New air filter and got a arb air compressor for it. Sadly that won't be installed for a while cause I went out and shot my self in the foot by accident 🤦 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted October 26 Author Share Posted October 26 Oil change done again... went to a wix filter and 15w40 to stop leaks lol. Also did fuel filter spark plugs and cleaned up the cap and rotor. Turns out everything leaks so bad on this motor that I even get oil in the dizzy first time for everything I suppose though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is covered by I.S. Note 34E. In short if your distributor is leaking from the vent hole ("A" in Fig. 1) you should replace your distributor.

That looks great Its just a dorman catch can from autozone or any local parts store kr was expensive but thats the price I pay when I'm impatient and hate ordering online lol. Of course I deleted the ballast resistor and used that spot to bolt it up and bent the bracket around the body right there. Also moved the egr thing over to the ground off the harness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive fully removed both that and my EGR solenoid so that makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hgeranium Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 Just now, Muncher said: Did you fully delete your egr? I don’t have it hooked up but the EGR valve itself is still there with a vacuum cap on it. The vacuum lines on the intake manifold stacked I just have routed to each other with a short C shape hose. I want to delete the whole valve at some point but I’m not in a position to make a block-off plate right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted November 10 Author Share Posted November 10 Still got a terrible power surge but today I cleaned up all my wires on the c101c delete and checked the fuel injection harness jt looked fine. Re did the injector and sensor grounds and added a ground too each that goes to the map sensor bolt holes. I think my next step in solving this issue will be testing the coil and cps and possibly the ignition control module. can't wait to get rid of the 4.0 at this point.

Muncher Posted November 19 Author Share Posted November 19 New Bosch fuel pump and lock ring/o ring which hopefully is the end to my stuttering issue basically everything electrical is new now besides the coil, ignition module and cps. Of course my slave cylinder decided to die before I could even make it run right so ordering parts for a ax15 swap tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
