Thanks Scott The clicking addressed on the TSB was remediated years ago, when the car was fairly new. This is more of a growl, right after changing the fluid. It never made that noise before. I will try the figure 8, it is said to do that if adding additives as well. The Mobil 1 fluid does have additives, I'll try to work it in with figure 8.

1987 Conquest - Manual Transmission - 70k Miles I recently changed the transmission and differential fluids for the first time. I used recommended fluids; Mobil 1 Gear Oil, 75W90, Limited Slip Additive, Synthetic and Red Line 50504 MT-85 Manual Transmission 75W85 GL-4 Gear Oil, for the transmission. Right after, I started experiencing rear end noise when taking off and turning at the same time. I was told I should add more friction modifier additive to the differential. Anyone experience this issue? Any additive recommendation? Thanks

Just found some how to in the lube section.

87 TS1 Manual Transmission I'm looking to replace these gear oil for the first time. Any recommendation on what to use and basic process will be appriciated. I'm also replacing the RR wheel end CV joint boot. Thanks as always

Looked at the manifold today and sure enough, that last bolt had worked itself out, and the nut on the top wasn't very tight. So I tighten both and will keep an eye on it. Thanks again

Thanks for the replies guys. I will look into these, once I'm able to confirm the true condition of mine. I'm guessing these are remanufactured; is the fitment stock like? Also, the shop did tell me that they had to helicoil the the rear most exhaust stud, not sure if it was pulled, or stripped. I suspect the manifold was worped then and they just didn't know and didn't addressed. Again, this was a long time ago.

Hello, I hope all are having a good winter. Much snow in the northeast. 1987 Conquest TSi Long before I learned of the warping issue with these manifolds, I had the car in a shop for an exhaust leak. The gasket was replaced but I don't believe the leak went away as it is leaking (near the firewall). I also believe there is a small crack (I'll have to confirm). Could someone advise on finding a good replacement? I guess it would have to be corrected by planing it down. I also read about stress relieving, but that if already planed dow then that would no longer be needed. Thanks for any help

Sorry to hear about this. I hope you get it back on the road without too much hassle.

Happy New Year

Yeah I can see possibly printing the nylon gear cable but not sure if there is a way to attach it to the mast. If that is possible, I would cut the cable from a new antenna and attach it to my.

Cool Drove through Lynn recently on the way to Marblehead.

What am I searching? How to cast antenna mast? Thanks

Here is what it looks like installed: https://ibb.co/mT5p2cb I trimmed about 6 inches from the nylon cable (not sure you need to). I noticed that this mast is skinnier than ours, but as long as it doesn't pass the outer ring, it will stop when it goes up. Also, notice that the tip is different. I prefer ours. It's very easy to take out the mast, I can slide mine back in since the actual mast is not broken. I'll keep looking for the correct length, if anyone comes across something, please let me know. Thanks

The mast I got (for Saab 900) is just over an inch too tall. https://ibb.co/QjMNSN7 For around 20 bucks it was worth a try. I may still install it. I'll look around using the measurement and see if I can find something.
