    Yeah it isn't much, but it's all you need. Except for the one that attaches the lifting eye, the bolts are small. All need to be 89 in/lbs. There are lots of the little guys on the engine so I...

    Is it possible that you overtightened the bolts? If so the mating surface may have warped. Proper torque is 89 in/lbs - about 7 or so ft/lbs.

    Take a look at the parts in the kit I linked above. That's a full refresh, including radiator. Remember that the radiator has plastic tanks which may (will?) crack with age. I really strongly...

    I have no way of knowing if the previous owner used an ECS kit or bought parts piecemeal. The water pump looked to be in good condition, but it got replaced regardless. I'll dig the old tank out of...

    Previous owner was an ECS Tuning fan, so probably OE or OEM.

    Ordered the "Mango" kit plus an alternator belt tensioner. And a gallon of coolant.



    I had the G.A.S. 1.2 bar cap on there when it blew. Those tanks really are a disaster looking for a place...
  8. Yet another cooling system refresh, but with a kicker.

    I haven't been around in a long time; sorry 'bout that. Too much stuff and not enough me.

    Anyway, on Monday I was out running some errands. Totally uneventful. Pulled into my driveway, shut...

    Interesting Phenomenon - Strut Brace

    I've been reading up a little on strut braces for our cars, especially as they get older. Was it tracked often in a previous life? What sort of suspension components does it have? How many miles...

    Moar!

    Replaced rear brakes; rotors (Zimmerman), pads (Akebono), wear sensor, plastic plugs & covers. Also replaced the hood gas struts. Parts from FCP Euro.

    I think that's enough for a while....

    I'm back - kinda. BIG maintenance weekend.

    Hey, folks! Sorry I've been so scarce the past couple of years. It's been pretty crazy here; more ortho surgeries than expected and work getting busy (finally).

    Anyway, still loving the ZHP. ...
  13. So many outside mirror threads. Here's yet another!

    Last Thursday AM (9/29) drove to CSUF and the mirrors were normal. Parked in a structure so the car was totally shaded. A couple hours later I go to retrieve the car for a quick jaunt to my ortho...

    This would be something controlled by a driver circuit, which I don't think these LED assemblies have. After all, they are fed by the 12V DC of the car and not household AC current.

    Consider this...

    LED replacements and dash warning

    Doing some early exploring regarding LED replacements for front corners, sidemarkers, tail lights, rear turn signals, backup lights.

    Will replacement of these will cause a dash warning? There's a...

    I detected no odd temperature when handling the crushed can, even when the internal pressure was still low and working on the can. So obviously an air pressure event, but not one caused by a temp...
  24. Brake Fluid Storage Oddity. Any chemists in here?

    After changing out my car's brake fluid, I wanted to store the leftovers for a short time to add if necessary. Because brake fluid is hygroscopic, I attempted to store the partial container of it by...
