    No way we'd be able to get the car there, but would love to come check it out. Is there spectator parking available?

    Frame Off Restoration

    Looks fantastic. The extra blocking and color sanding really paid off, black needs it to look that good. Keep up the awesome work! Where did you get the clear blinker lenses for the front bumper? Last time I looked it seemed pretty difficult. I am just starting to get back into the TR world...

    FOR SALE 109 ENGINES

    EDIT: 'delete' Sorry, wrong thread. But it's good to see someone local, I am in La Habra (previously Pico Rivera). Car has been sitting for almost 3 years so I am trying to get back into the game and seeing what is out there/changed in the time I have been gone.

    Won't Pass CA Emmissions

    Haha!! That's my next choice!!! Sounds good guys, thank you for all the help and suggestions. I will have to lower the FP and see if I can get it to Lou's shop for a test. My registration is already lapsed so I gotta go wait in line for a little temp registration now :( ... As Lou mentioned...

    Won't Pass CA Emmissions

    Sorry for the delay guys. My internet went down and the ISP was giving me the run-around. :mad: I do have the Smog Paper work and will post the numbers later this evening. I cant remember off the top of my head, but I know it BARELY failed. Both times I was right on the brink of passing...

    Won't Pass CA Emmissions

    Hello All, Well I am another person who is having a hard time passing SMOG. Been through the test twice now. Second time I took some tips from the forums and got it nice and hot and had 2 bottles of HEET in the 1/2 full tank and a TT 'emmission chip'. My car is pretty much stock besides the...

    AC fan problem

    Well last weekend I tried to get to those elusive wires on my driveway but just couldnt do it. Took it to an old workplace of mine and put it on the lift. The wires were still connected but really dirty and the two thinner guaged wires were exposed. I just clipped them off, ran them back up...

    AC fan problem

    I was finally able to check on the car today. Got out the test light and there is power reaching the green wire to the compressor. I tried looking for the ground but was looking on the drivers side. :rolleyes: It got too hot outside so I retired for the day. I will get back out there to check...

    AC fan problem

    Don't worry about it, I really appreciate all of your help and knowledge. My work place is only 1 mile from home, so my car is still usable in its condition. I forgot to mention that I did try another ECM and chip configuration with no luck, it still reacted the same way. When the A/C is...

    AC fan problem

    I ordered new fusable links from caspers yesterday, as well as a new A/C cut-out relay and A/C plug with diode just in case. Wow, that is a lot of wiring but does make sense. I will have to get out the good ol' test light and see if there is power to the fuses you have mentioned, to the relay...
