Not really answering your question, but FWIW I've had two vertical links while driving. Unless you enjoy veering into the oncoming lane, it can be a scary experience! Vertical links ARE available new

It seems strange that the pipe would break at the muffler. Are you sure that it isn't actually the part of the muffler inlet pipe that broke? - that is a fairly common break area, especially if the

Just did this myself. If you're reusing the old studs and nuts, it is possible that the old nut is only going on part way due to rust or damaged threads on the stud. Eventually the stud bottoms out a

Thanks to Fred and Nolan for their replies. It WAS the outer electrode that was bent down and the consensus is that something hit it. Fred suggests that the piston made contact, but would that sudde

My guess too. Sometime you can get the components to work again by reaching in the drivers side parcel shelf and giving a gentle tug on the wiring harness. If so, the problem is definitely in the fu

I'm thinking that if you're clacking loud and down on power, you may have "spun a bearing", where instead of having a bearing shell on the bottom half of the crankshaft and one on the top half, you h

I've heard opinions both ways. I can only tell you how it worked out for me. I'd say that my bearings were fairly worn with some of them almost a pure copper color. In addition, my oil pressure was

For those of you that have made your own dashboard, has anyone ever switched the location of the gas/temp gauge and the radio? It seems to me to be a logical thing to do, especially with a CD player.

I wouldn't recommend doing that. The later exhaust manifolds are prone to cracking. I think the weight of the cat is partially to blame. I believe that this clamp is designed to take some of the str
