    someone smarter should chime in, but to me it sounds like an issue with the brake booster vacuum system maybe the one-way valve that stops boost from getting into the vac booster is having issues

    evolution taking place... http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag24/Squrlsquash/25014811-66fe-43b0-8ecb-223b4c6befec_zpsdca35e7f.jpg Was thinking about an upsized pin to fix the issues with the master/pedal arm, then i thought of a pressed in sleeve or something - oversize the hole and sleeve it back to original diameter. in the meantime, im keeping it simple until there's interest & funding for otherwise My pin made a big difference on it's own, and planning to swap the clutch cylinder shortly which should take care of the rest. p.s. comes with two washers (one either side of the pin), to prevent one of the master cylinder arms from wearing in the gap right next to the bolt head

    Takes big ball bearings to drive a mid engine 50 year old car to the limit of grip in the rain just proof that lost of traction makes racing better One of the reasons I say we should cover F1 tracks with oil

    i recently watched a documentary called back to the future, all cars are limited to 88 otherwise the time space continuum gets messed up

    you can change the oil pump and delete balance shafts with the block in the car, just need to remove the timing cover, radiator, and anything else in the way
  12. Squrlsquash
    You switched from a heavier weight oil to a lighter weight one, a drop in oil pressure is to be expected. you did or did not have this problem before you switched?
  13. Squrlsquash
    Turned engine over a few more times and the marks all lined up like the picture in the service manual which i believe is TDC cyl 1 how do i line up the distributor? do i line up the dimple in the gear with the mark on the shaft?
  14. Squrlsquash
    its the plastic connector on the back of the instrument cluster (right behind the speedo) takes some fiddling to get it loose, especially when they've not been removed before - try not to force it or break other stuff while your'e back there keep track of what screws go where as you take the cluster apart Most likely the speedo cable needs to be replaced (runs from the back of the transmission under the car, through firewall, into the back of the speedo. follow the path of the one you're removing, will make routing it easier - zip ties to keep in place

    ive got the same one they cost something like $92 ish new feels solid and looks gewd - hard to reach turn signals but meh
  16. Squrlsquash
    There is no timing mark on the crank gear... i have another crank gear that does have the mark, should i swap the gears out? or just put a mark in the same place on the un-marked gear? To do that id have to pull the oil pump crank gear. can it be pulled and reinstalled without removing the oil pump?
  17. Squrlsquash
    same style boost controller from jeremy's top gear starion. just a switch between regular boost pressure and a bleed valve to trick the wastegate? i'll take the misc engine bits pm'd
  18. Squrlsquash
    i believe the light would be activated by the switch in the hatch struts. It's a matter of connecting the two wires the switch normally closes, so it thinks the hatch is always shut.
  19. Squrlsquash
    stock or oversize bearings? interested in engine bits and shift knob
  20. Squrlsquash
    Okay, no more mr. nice guy i want this done, and done right can i set the timing marks without taking off the oil pump gear? should i pop the cam gear off to line up the chain, then rotate the crank/cam to match? i'll be back at it tomorrow, any tips would be helpful http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag24/Squrlsquash/timingbits_zps14eb388e.jpg
  21. Squrlsquash
    Would the valves hit the pistons if it was off a tooth? turns over fine without binding Otherwise i have to pull the timing cover to reset the chain any problem with putting it in gear to hold the crank and pulling the crank bolt?
  22. Squrlsquash
    pulled the head, used a zip tie to pull up the chain slack and don't believe the crank gear could have jumped a tooth dark yellow staining on the spark plugs and nice wet deposits on the combustion chamber usually means burning some oil? probably just because i haven't done any long trips with it yet, might just be granny syndrome... valve seals looked dry, but there was some oil/fuel on the pistons my plan is to pop it together and do some serious driving to break the deposits loose sound good?
  23. Squrlsquash
    Unrelated Anyone know where to pick up tach signal and 12v switched on the instrument panel? cant find a useful pinout and have a ways to go before i can start her up and poke around with a multimeter http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag24/Squrlsquash/IMG_7214_zps79d407ea.jpg
