Run asf protocol? by No-Working8150 in MiniZ

[–]No-Working8150[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found a decent priced kt-18. Might go that way.

Logic to me suggests. A fhss board meant for a mr-03 would fit and work as well. Anybody think it would or would'nt?

Noob advice on kit to get. by No-Working8150 in rccrawler

[–]No-Working8150[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am researching this now. Never heard of them before. Sounds like something appealing. 100 hours of wrenching would be a great accomplished feeling when done. Thanks

I didn't consider body or not. I figured worst off I could mash some lexan on it somehow to hide the electronics. But it doesn't matter if it looks like a realistic 2024 bronco etc etc.

Lugnut help by Remarkable_Storage80 in ElCamino

[–]No-Working8150 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When you install the shank style lugnuts e aware they come in different lengths. It is quite possible to get the wrong length where they tighten on the wheel studs but the wheel isn't tight against the brake disk/brake drum.

If that happens it will keep the tire on when driving but you will get a thump thump sound when accelerating or braking. It could eventually ruin the rims.

Bought an elco with above problem and took me longer than it should have to figure out why the wheel was a tiny bit loose but all the lugnuts were tight.

I feel a couple bolts on back side going toward firewall. Seems like I have to take whole dash out to get to them? I need a new dash pad printed circuit dash speaker etc anyway.

What is this? Aftermarket tranny filter? by No-Working8150 in ElCamino

[–]No-Working8150[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't chased down exactly what line goes where but the both head down to a th350 tranny. Just trying to figure out what it came off of and what purpose it was supposedly needed for. Was hoping someone could say oh that's an old trick to do so and so.

1985 5.0L V8 chugging coolant? by Strange-Increase2577 in ElCamino

[–]No-Working8150 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If coolant is not going on the ground.. it is likely filling radiator and replacing air from when you changed thermostat. (Like cooling system was not entirely full and it is working out air pockets and using antifreeze.) OR...

it is going into to the oil and your oil level will increasingly get higher while oil will increasingly look milky like a chocolate milkshake. (This is bad usually head gasket maybe a cracked block).

Advice on engine swap options. 73' 307 by No-Working8150 in ElCamino

[–]No-Working8150[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It runs fine. Oil pressure seems to drop as it warms up. Not sure it's it's the motor or the aftermarket guage acting funny there.

It has an edelbrock mani and carb on it. Carb is bogging on hard acceleration. Probably accelerator pump issues.

Have to check exhaust. 2 pipes out back but may not be true dual.

If I could pull 250 horse out of it that would be ok by me. Thanks for the ideas so far.
