the mech capable. reason i couldnt get the car done today was cuz he had about 12 cars in the yard, and he just did 2 swaps, and a 3rd was in progress. he is ah boss mech.
i hope i eh have to go through ah alternator removal. that thing in one queer place.

when my old man brought home the far the first time, b4 i popped the hood he said "boi it eh have space fuh ah screwdriver"
the man eh lie yes.
alluh ever try changing fan belts? the one in the back, not the one fuh the AC compressor. the other one? i have no clue where the ajuster is for it, so i ended up leaving its ass right there. changing the other one was ah breeze, but that one is stress.
as fuh the oil leak, it coming from sumwhere behind the oil filter mounting. i thought it was the oil pan at first, so i took it down, cleaned the surface and re-sealed it. leak still persisted, when i gone back under the car i see where it coming from. i think is sum o-ring or sumthing in the oil pump.
monday i'll know

^^^ you guys i have the FSM for the engine if u guys so inclined. Plus cacasplat3, i have the manual u suppose to get with de car when u buy it also.

To change the power steering belt u have to work from underneath so u need a ramp or lift.

I used the FSM to pull out my injectors when i first got the car an let me tell u it took whole day. it have some bolts in some F*** up places to remove. got lots of cuts that day yes......Me eh doin dat wuck again nah. Fuel treatment fuh its ass yes!!

Let me no if u guys want the FSM is bout 40 megs though.

Chiney · Posted: Mon Aug 21, 2006 12:01 pm Post subject:

host it somewhere

i will download it !!

that wud be sweet !!

and i eh inclined.. i does jus learn by trial and error!

ok, i went by the mech, the problem with my oil leak was the seal behind the engine oil cooler(trust me i'd didnt know there was an oil cooler) was bad, so it was replaced, when replaced the oil filter seal started leaking, so i changed the oil and filter. started up for about 15 mins, no drips, took it for a run, still no drips. so i cool now Mr. Green

right now i have a busted engine mount, mech say, if it not making noise doh bother to see bout it, cuz the car is extra pressure to change that.

rodney, i eh get any manual with the car either.
as for the FSM, put it on a cd and bring it to a tuner lime. Wink

Chiney · Posted: Mon Aug 21, 2006 10:03 pm Post subject:

jah.. its de line for the powersteering pump.. talk bout stress.. goin on ah ramp tomorrow to see wat can be done...

..which engine mount busted jed?

cacasplat3 · Posted: Tue Aug 22, 2006 9:44 pm Post subject:

right side mount. have to look at sum prices. Neutral

i had ah small leak in the powersteering section too. turns out it was the line under the fill up container, had run slack and the oil ran down the line and onto the pump, making it look like a leak too. Rolling Eyes

Chiney · Posted: Wed Aug 23, 2006 8:04 am Post subject:

cacasplat3 · Posted: Wed Aug 23, 2006 11:35 pm Post subject:

i was thinking forester, but i feel that go have to wait, i wah sumthning i could customise easy, like ah b13, where i could sr it easy, but i preffer reliable mods that the crap u does see sum ppl going through, cuz they have to go by the mech every month cuz ah sum sheit.

frontiers have speed, that why ppl drive them like that, plus they have ah advantage(height)

btw what is the trottle body diameter in your car, and what is the MAF housing's diameter? cuz my one is different sizes, so intake ah lil more tricky.
