    Fuel Pump Relay?

    Replacing the fuel pump relay. Before I start removing more than I have to - how is it attached to the inner fender? My feeble brain can’t figure it out. Thanks.

    Thank you

    I’ve asked a ton of questions on this list, and have always received helpful replies. Car is finally put back together & it runs! I’ll be asking more questions in the future, because there are always more questions about these cars - but please know that I appreciate all your help. Thanks.

    Silicone Hose (venting)

    Hose came with the maf tube to turbo. I gave up & went back to what I had. After all I’ve done to it (at least it was a lot for me) I just want to see if it will start.

    Silicone Hose (venting)

    How the heck do you get the hose onto the turbo inlet bell? I’ve tried spit, soapy water and goat semen (okay-that’s not really true) and I’ve used a small screwdriver and a hooked pick that slipped and poked a hole in my hand. I even took the inlet bell off and tried to do it on the workbench...

    Emission Vacuum Metal Lines

    Thanks. I’ll try bending what I have & when I screw it up I’ll get back to you. Still bugged why parts that fit when I took them off don’t fit when I put them back on.

    Shoot me a price, and if I can’t get these to work I’ll be in touch. Thanks,

    Emission Vacuum Metal Lines

    Looking for the metal emission lines that go to the vacuum block that haven’t been bent or kinked.

    Hard Vac. Lines

    Thanks. I’ll try that. Don’t think I’ll be able to raise the front tab with a spacer by much because of the IAC angle boss, but I’ll try it. I can’t figure out why neither the front or the back lines don’t line up now. The back ones are too far forward. Darn. This should have been so simple.

    Hard Vac. Lines

    I’m wearing out this list with questions, but I’m almost done putting stuff back together. The hard lines I took off don’t want to line up to go back on. The 2 hold-down bolts are installed. Don’t think the lines got bent, but something is different. Only thing I did was to install a power plate...

    Coolant Lines that fit?

    Ordered & received stainless coolant lines w/o nipples. Anyone know where I can get some that fit? These don’t. Thanks.

    Fuel Pump turn on

    Earlier I said that I got nothing when I tried the FP test wire. I didn’t because I wasn’t connecting it in far enough to the underwood light wire. Pushed it in farther & the pump kicked in. Lots of gurgling because of all the air in the fuel line. Did it several times and let it sit awhile...

    Fuel Pump turn on

    Tried that. Nothing. It’s an 87. All pump stuff worked fine. I didn’t mess with any of the connections to the pump. Car has an ignition cutout alarm system. It’s okay because I can turn the engine over with the key. Frustrated - but everything does that with one of these cars, right?

    Fuel Pump turn on

    Been replacing a lot of parts, so numerous connectors aren’t connected. Everything worked fine before I started playing. Before I put all the parts back on, I’d like to check the new injectors at the fuel rail for leaks by just turning the key without engaging the starter, but the pump won’t...

    Firewall Paint?

    This spot looks gnarly. Any suggestions as to what paint would come closest to blending in with the rest of the firewall? Flat, Satin,... ? Thanks

    Wiring worry-wort

    Yeh, I think too much about little things. Is it okay to route the injector wires under the intake & through the gaps in the runners? I ask because there’s a section protective wrap by the harness connector but not all the way to the wires going to the injectors. Would heat be a problem? I think...
