  1. Take it to the car wash and hose that bitch off,, don't spray anywhere near distributor or carburator NO WHERE NEAR .. Just start at the middle on the sides and work your way down ,, you should be able to see where the new oil at least comes from pretty close.. I use just the high pressure soap , forget the "engine cleaner" that's just a ripoff.. Buy yourself a can of WD40 and some paper towels in case you wash out the distributor somehow,,, BUY IT BEFORE YOU START,, better safe than stranded.. Again dont spray the dizzy or the carb cuz if you do,, you be fuckin up.. :cool:

  3. That's just what they'll be expecting me to do. :ninja:
  4. I will stand in the parking lot and entertain the younger members with my charming good looks and my rapier wit. Sunday is cool with us .
  5. No downtown Port Orchard, a couple times they had a meet at a place in Tacoma and his wife went antique-ing. I worked just north of the train bridge on Airport way from age 19 till 26 in the 80s early 90s and a SODO meet would be cool but not sure many would be comfortable with it.. :rofl: We used to drink beers and such for lunch in the Jack Perry park ( we called it chicken spot) :ninja: Brodster and Datwifey that you met, had a Alki beach party once that sounded fun, but i'm to old to stay up that late.
  6. Oooooo never even noticed the new wide white walls in the earlier pictures. B)
  7. 18R-U ? Although what in the hell came in the screw-fix box?
  8. I read that the British(?) never got the 2door or the wagon, but i don't know if true.
  9. So now we're locking out the weirdos?? i guess i will have to disguise myself as a port a potty delivery guy to gain their trust then when they aren't looking hide in one and gain entrance.. WHO'S WITH ME!!
  10. Yeah probably,,,, it is JCwhittney.
  11. Dear Phixiusness thanks for taking every single frickin Ford wiper knob unit within a 30 square mile radius........ It's ok i will just drive with my head out the window to the garbage dump.

      no idea what year yours is... I remember there being a relay (?) that got corroded up on one I worked up that made the switch stop working or intermittently work. It was on the passengers side or underneath the dash ? IDK... been a while.

      Just the knob,, the switch is on dash, i use pliers to turn it

       

       

      Amazon my ass,, he took them all!!

      Ive only been to Pick a Part for those switches. And I actually never take the knobs. most arnt there and the ones that are I leave in the truck... And if your relay box is dead, you can eliminate it by just plugging straight to the switch. Ill check my stash for you tho...

  12. It measures about that ,,, i lost my vernier calipers a while ago my dial calipers suck ass and my digital calipers are to sensitive to reliably measure shit.. I have one that measures about 57 also. measuring the whole unit from the tip of bearing to the other not just the collar I can leave it at the desk so you won't even have to tell the receptionist to say your not there..
  13. Are you coming by here?? It is teacher conferences all week so twins get home at 10:45 and we are going to Portland Wednesday for a Toyota / Datsun parts scoop.. On another note the Queen Latifah show doesn't have Queen Latifah on the show.. :confused:
  14. Does anyone know the words to " i'm a little teapot " over there??
  15. That's why i didn't want to be inside,, and the 1/4 tank of gas rule..
  16. Well you kinda threw my funny rebuttal out the window if i can't lure you into my trap. :P FYI ,, i am going to be going to Portland tomorrow or Wednsday to pick up some parts i am buying that i found in (get this) the Ratsun classified last week. :rofl:
  17. Wasn't it INDY510 that quit here for awhile because of the new members ruining it with their constant trolling, and negativity,,, who were those members?? Hmmmm
  18. Nope,, but any venue change would be ok.. The reason I didn't come this time has nothing to do with spot ,, like i said none of my none member friends acquaintances,, assholes i have met around Tumwater, or my brother wanted to go and FAT510 was still sleeping.. :sneaky: That,, and the wind was blowing at just sub hurricane speeds. About the battleship remarks,,, RickRat is being smart alecky but Tristin your just being the typical squid i supervised for many years. .. If it was a ship and it was in a battle i see it as a battleship.. Get it?? And there are these giant metal things parked just this side of Bremertweek they may not be "battleships" but they are kinda,,,, just kinda cool to look at..Also for the record i worked for a roofing company for a few years based on Bethal road right by Als towing and i can gaurantee you if anybody knows the secret places to hide in plain site with great views ,,, it's "roofers". .. We don't HAVE to eat where we meet maybe a cool parking spot then roll out to Seabeck pizza out in Seabeck,,for the cruise.. I don't really like their doughy crust but would enjoy a spirited cruise out there.. I was thinking a stop at Hooligans work ( at his lunch break ) might freak and somewhat please his boss at the same time then follow that wierd little road that parallels freeway through the hills over to the automall.. I think RickRat mentioned his wife would like to have a meet downtown by all the antique stores ??
  19. The freeway speeds where i live are 70+ and i installed a longtail 5speed a few months ago and we drove to the wreckers the other day and traffic was only doing 60+ mph,, man it was almost a relaxing drive... 4100 rpms aint that bad but since i don't have a tach i can only go on how it makes me feel an the 5speed made me feel warm and fuzzy. :) Rock auto still sells speedo cables pretty cheap.
  20. By the looks of that goofy hood that must be the car they are going to use in the new Evil Dead movie??
  21. Yes i have a couple grounds hooked to alternator E terminal but the black plug had me confused. When Punkin210 and Qtip motor swapped his 83 Maxima there was the tiniest black wire hooked to the intake that kept car from starting,, he stripped it back grounded it and car imediately fired up. You would have never thought such a tiny wire would have such a huge effect on running.. On our ZXT it seems the only thing that outnumbers vacuum hoses is ground wires..
  22. cool . Is there any reason this needs to be in the exact same location every time?? Isn't there somewhere to eat or park closer to the battleships ( or anywhere but a strip mall) for a more scenic type meet like deal? :) Yes i am complaining about an event i didn't go to ,, but i have a few times in the past.
  23. Nope and knowing a couple pretty intense roadster dudes ,, if i was you i wouldn't ever call yours a SRL in front of a 2000 guy.. Have you tried spraying ether into carbs while turning it over??
