The fuseable link wire running from battery to ECM, if disconnected will it shut off fuel injector pulse in addition to coil shut off? Does anybody know for sure without guessing? Thanks.

How do the metal trim pieces come off the front windshield? I guess the rear is the same.

Are there any vendors selling soft compound stock size pads for front? I know Kirban's sells some for rear, but did not see any pads.

Adding a shim to, say, right front upper A-arm mount, no other changes, does what? Affects castor, camber, both? Toe in for sure, I'm thinking, but what else?

If I decide to keep stock front discs and drums rear, would a manual brake system still function alright? What mc would work with the stock set up? I've seen quite a few posts saying a 7/8" or 15/16" bore is best, some recommend S10 from mid 90's. Another is using a Chrysler type. Is...

Ran across this when researching how to fix slop in steering box: G-body steering box woes - MonteCarloSS.com Message Board This is an interesting post from that forum. Has anyone here tried the preload adjustment? How did that work out?

Anyone know of a good Dallas machinist/machine shop who understands the special crank attributes, i.e. fillets, etc. on our cars? How about valve work, also?

My '86 T's front windshield seal is leaking. The rubber has become brittle and crumbly. Is there a specific molding for our cars, or can an auto glass shop replace it with a generic strip? Are all windshields sealed the same way? If need a "Buick Regal" specific part, do any of the...

What tach works no mods and using the green clip behind alternator? I looked at the signal coming off the clip with my oscilloscope and saw the five volt square wave. Almost perfect square wave, too. Do all modern aftermarket tachs made for distributorless systems run off a five volt square...

I recall some statements from years ago, saying that TR cylinder walls do not wear much, as evidenced by lack of wear in high mileage engines. If so, then a ring job should be easy. Anyone just put new standard rings in? What about the ring ridge at top? That still requires reaming, doesn't it?

What is the benefit of doing this? Just weight reduction? Is this for racing only, or normal driving as well?

Does the restrictor in the "Y" fitting go to the wastegate actuator or to the intake side of the turbo? Also, does it matter which port is used for the foam filter on the solenoid?

From what I've been reading here on the forum, it appears that everybody likes alcohol injection. I don't find too many detractors on the subject. After more than a decade collecting dust (rust), the old TR is running again, and really pretty well. It does have some ping with high boost...

I find that 7/32" hose is too large and 3/16" is too small for some of my fittings. Is there such a thing as 13/64" hose? Anyone else experience this?

After 24 years, still finding things I know nothing about on this car. What is that round plastic ball, driver's front side, behind front bumper and directly below the fuel return canister? It has a vacuum line running to a plastic tee. Tee also goes to cruise control module. What is the...

Need to rebuild or replace the steering box for an FE2 optioned car. Think I have talked myself in to replacing by the time I typed this second sentence. Is there a link telling how to remove/replace it? Thanks.

Vehicle speed sensor. What does it do? Does the speedometer signal it? If so, what happens if speedometer cable breaks? Anything shut down?

Trying to source either or both. All I can find on the net is a dual pin sensor set up. Mine is single pin, and connector secure tang is broken. I assume everybody's is a single pin? Anyone know where to get it?

What is the forward most module of the four module group located on the passenger side? The back three are ESC, fuel pump relay, and a/c compressor relay, but what does that vacuum module control?
