I got the old leaking 24 year old stock "Heater core " out and the new one in now ,, wasn't that bad ,, just push on gas and brake at same time will give you room ,and slide it out from under the dash on drivers side floor ,
|
Also got the stock oil pickup tube off and cleaned out ,waiting on new gasket to come in , maybe next Wednesday before I got all parts ,,had to clean the stock EGR unite out ,,ordered new gasket for it also ,the one that go's on the intake manifold .
|
I've been cleaning and high temp heat painting parts that will go back on the car ,over the last week . :salute:,,Thanks for looking in ,,more pictures to come soon .
|
I got the better oil pan and new gasket also - ( with a new oil pikeup tube and gasket ) on yesterday and the lower heater metal heater tube ,, " its been raining and very cold here in the south over the last week " ,, the car is outside on my driveway on one side of it ,,I'm taking pictures as I go ,so when I post the pictures you will see all this ,,,, No parts just laying around in part stores ,for this year of car (1989),, ,so if I need something ,,it takes a few days to get it in . as always ,,thanks for looking in :salute:
