  1. sadly i was not granted the day off for the meet.. maybe one day ill get to a meet..
  2. I'd be better for the 24th. Then i can request work off, otherwise no bueno for the 3rd.
  3. Now that im on the road again thanks to you, absolutely in for this.
  4. UCW458 do happen to know what that would cost?? and BC that sounds good ill keep you informed. thanks guys.
  5. Most definitely interested, they seem to be hard to find everywhere
  6. Would love to attend if I get the motor in my then into th 86 quest! now... whether or not i can sneak out of work, kind of debateable.. will try!
  7. So a little paranoid if i order new lock cylinders that other keys from another car will work in them?? Recently had my other rig stolen and the quest keys were in the glovebox (rookie error trust me i know).... wondering if maybe theres another manufacturer lock cylinder that would fit that would have a different key than the quest style?? Just pondering before i put my quest back on the road! thanks guys
  8. Hopefully i can get my 86 quest to that meet in May as well! Thanks to the above ^^^^. Im in snohomish, WA
  9. Now that ive met up with MotoCam360 for exhaust parts i hope to get more involved in the local starquesting, and get my 86 Tsi quest running and performing as it should be.. this is the fisrt car other than my jeep that ive put mechanical thought into. This has been an experience to learn more about the car world!! loving my quest for sure!
  10. So i couldn't find any post about this one.. Under heavy acceleration the exhaust backfires quite a bit and thats one thing... BUT. My dome light flickers everynow and then at the same time as the backfiring... ONLY UNDER ACCELERATION. Cleaned fusible links terminals and ordered new ones just to be safe, but is there anything else that comes to mind?? Thanks guys! 86 Quest TSi
  11. Correct grounds and power routed on you coil?? Also double check that plug wires are seated all the way. I just replaced a dead coil because i had no spark so theres a few things to think of. Hope it helps!
  12. Perfect thanks guys! Ive been tearing through all the terminals already hoping its gonna be the issue. As far as the coil issue though i'll look into that coil Caliber, as long as that one wont leave me on the side of the highway! Thanks! Cody
  13. Coil first.. When i first bought the car i did the standard tune up with new coil, plugs, etc using all the recommended parts from the newbie check. Since then i have replaced the coil 4 times... Just either died or overheated. Just replaced another one today.. Symptoms for needing one: Car died while driving and wouldn't start again, happened every time.. Am i just bad luck or is there something i'm missing... Next! My main fusible links connection from the battery terminal post is heating up under load and melting and getting hot, the usual suspect for electrical bug.. Did a ground go bad or is something causing this? Many thanks, Cody Oh PS its an 86 widebody quest
