oh man Reapersgbodys,
That would be so awesome. I Was going through my car last night because I had to remove the entire fuel tank, pump, and old fuel filter. Because I have a new tank coming today via ups and I received my Walbro 255, adaptor kit, and Hotwire kit all yesterday so last night it was important to me to drop the tank in preparation of tonight which hopefully will include starting the car for the very first time since 1998 (aside from starting it for 5 seconds on starting fluid). I cleaned the injectors and fuel rail as best as I could. I blew compressed air in the feed and return lines so all I can do is hope for the best.
I’m a little concerned that I ran the car for about 5 seconds and when I looked in the oil fill hole the top of the head was bone dry as soon as I saw that I stopped messing with cranking it. I ordered an oil pump gasket at Advance Auto parts that should be there today. I figured my oil pump might be sucking air because of the 20 year nap it took. So tonight’s work is to restore the entire fuel system, change the oil, hook up my oil pressure test gauge and see if I actually have oil pressure and how it’s running after 20 yesrs of rest.
But OMG I’m sorry I’m getting off the topic again. My mom who is the only reason why I was able to buy this car in the first place passed on June 4,1997 unexpectedly and on June 7,2018 my wife found my mother in law unresponsive when she went there to check why she didn’t answer her phone. Long story short massive brain bleed deep inside her brain. Emergency surgery, cut into her skull, she was doing well but now caught MERSA infection because she spent so much time intubated on a respirator so she’s at the point where she can turn in either direction. So needless to say I’m in this depressed/stress situation and that car is literally the only thing I have from my mother. So I really want to fix it.
So anyway after visiting my mother in law I started working on the car and I finished removing the gas tank and fuel sending unit which was the only part i actually needed really fast so I figured I’d see why my window wouldn’t go down. So I took off the door inner panel and there was another document which turned out the be the broadcast sheet I believe.
If anyone knows this gentleman personally can you please put in a good word for me. Here’s my proof. The way I figure
1) the original (not a copy) window sticker has the WE4 option listed as the 13tg option from the top the cost for that option is 3,295.00 as it appears right on my window sticker with a bunch of other options.
2) the vin number on that window sticker matches the vin on my dashboard peaking out of the windshield. As well as the vin number that’s punched into the drivers side of the body under the door sill.
3) the broadcast sheet shows lists my win number as well as the body number that’s on the body tag/plate under the hood near the wiper motor.
4) Plus I have everything that came with the car paperwork wise.
Honestly if I don’t get the sticker my life won’t stop because I know what it really is. But anyone please explain to me how I could forge all those original documents. And why would I go through all that trouble? It’s only a WE4. It’s not like it’s some kind of GNX.
Once again I apologize for my long story. I’m just trying to paint the picture of why this would mean a lot to me. I will email them Monday. Maybe I can convince them.
Have a great weekend everyone
