  1. If it wasn't removed, it should be fine. Your problems are that the Camshafts and the Crankshaft are out of sync. You need to set the crankshaft so that the #1 cylinder is at TDC. You can pull the spark plug and shine a flashlight down to see when it reaches TDC.
  2. Did you set everything back to TDC before you put the new belt on? Maybe since stuff moved around, the distrubutor is out of position?
  3. *Hang!* 1999 was the best year EvArrrrrrrrr....
  4. Oh, Brian....you know Brent's online reputation for being a jerk... But...on topic.... Does anyone have the Part Numbers for the Friction Plates at quick reference? I do not have access to FAST here at work, and I'm calling around today to get prices.
  5. That says it all. Thornturds are the worst tire known to man.
  6. Wait...leaves are falling? It's still 100*F here!! WTF! Good luck man!
  7. I said QUOTEs....qoutes are free.
  8. Yeah, I haven't even seen him online in about a week, so hopefully everything is going OK. He's going through a pretty rough divorce, so I'm sure he's pretty burnt out on a lot of stuff. His ex-wife took the R50, so who knows if he'll even be able to develop much in the near future anyways. In the mean time, it wouldn't hurt to get some quotes from local companies. I'll talk to him about it as soon as I can.
  9. Oh, he was pissed! He was fine. Once the smell went away, he seemed to have forgotten about it...though, he stopped laying next to me while I was working on the truck...
  10. Also, if you're driving into a strong headwind, or at a higher altitude than normal, the engine will have to work harder to maintain speed. *Holy old post batman!!*
  11. He's going through some rough personal issues right now. When I talk to him, I'll remind him about it.
  12. I'd say that 100% of your TRACTION issues are coming from TIRES that aren't giving you any TRACTION. -thnkboutit-
  13. Uh...maybe it's your crappy, bald tires? :idea:
  14. Total fuel capacity is 21.4 gallons. The gauges are a little fuzzy in these....sometimes mine will read on E and only take 14, but sometimes it'll take nearly 16 when it reads 1/4 tank. I go by my odometer.
  15. You're not supposed to use 4WD in the wet. That is not considered a low-traction situation.
  16. Actually there is a Hayne's manual out for that year, but it's absolutely junk. Download the factory service manual from the PhatG20 site. The link is posted in a stickied thread in the Garage section. Also, read through the "So you want to lift your...." thread stickied at the top of this forum.
  17. Yes it will...but it wont spray it all over you, your garage, and your dog like a pressure washer. The dog was less than amused. I was laughing my butt off until it started to burn.
  18. Last time I did my fuel filter, I....uh.....forgot to depressurize the fuel line..... Yeah, that sucked a lot! Definitely do that!
  19. Probably your technique. Have you driven manual transmission vehicles reguarly before? M/Ts are not as smooth as automatics, but they're a lot more fun. Once you get more used to it, you'll get better at driving it.
  20. Oh...right, because your office in the center of your building with no windows is SOOOO windy, right?
  21. But you don't have a stock tape deck anymore.
  22. My Hayne's manual got stolen my some illegal at the car-wash. Otherwise I'd check that for ya.
  23. The early years will work just fine. Transmission is the same.
  24. What I've used in the past is a spray on white Lithium grease. I used it to lubricate the tracks inside of the door, and it made the windows go up and down faster and quieter. It's also good for curing squeaky hinges in your doors. To apply to the window tracks, you have to remove the door panel. Then cut or move the plastic sheeting that sits behind the panel so you can have access to the tracks. Spray on sparingly and cycle the window a couple of times. Repeat this a few times until there's an even coat of lubricant on the tracks. Inside of the door panel, the white lithium grease will last about a year to 14 months, unless you have rust holes that allow the door to fill up with dirt, grime and moisture. Edit: This actually reminds me that I'm going to have to do this on my Pathy soon. My passenger window is getting a little slow.
