Good afternoon fellow forum frequenters. I am looking for some help. I have a 1990 mkiii that I purchased a little over a month ago. Since then I've aggressively attacked the body fixing some issues and worked on the motor here and there. The car set for 3 years before I got it. When I brought...
My gas tank has been blasted and resealed and I am amazed at how well the car is running. On to topic, I have a set of brand new 225/60r16s that went to my old monte carlo. I have stock saw blade rims on my mk3, what I am curious about is will these tires fit on to the mk3? They looked quite a...
Well I decide to try see if electrolysis would work and so far so good. Its been two days so I think after tonight and tomorrow morning it'll be rust free. Burned my arm hair off after a stray spark hit some fumes lol. More funny then scary
Yeah, its possible, either way the tank needs a good cleaning. I'm going to try the electrolysis methods I've seen floating around. Also Forced, love the car and your sig.
Got it figured out. Full pump was working way to hard as the tank is awful, covered with rust and crud. Had my brother look at it, I'm color blind on reds and such, he said its ate up, going to get it blasted and cleaned this week.
It was a warranty replacement from the mechanic I bought it from. I think a airtex. On Friday, I'm going to be getting a walbro. I'm fairly certain the pump is either clogged or just bad out of the box.
I have a 1990 mkiii, I just purchased it. Car set for 3 years before i got it. I put a new fuel pump in it and it works great. I changed all my fluids, getting plugs and wires tomorrow. My question is I have a whine coming from the back. Its a very high frequency whine coming from the back where...
After messing with it a bit this morning I'm going to lean towards it just needing a good tune up, and Jonah the body is rough lol. Really rough. The clear coat is faded and there is collision damage on the driver rear panel. I'm going to sand it down, find the spots of concern, and any rust...
Alright, so I bit the bullet and bought it. I've only noticed a few small things here and there. All the hosing is going to be replaced, the turbo shaft felt good, no rubbing on the housing or touching. The oil looks good, still going to change it. The mechanic gave me a new fuel pump, he gave...
Thanks guys. I owned a 89 na mk3 about 3 years ago. Two weeks after getting it it got a bhg. Pretty devastating. Cracked the block unfortunately. I stumbled upon this one going fishing one day lol. Finally bugged the shop owner enough hes decided to sell it
I hear you on the nickel and diming Suprapowaz. Jonah, does this article pretty much sum up how to properly check it? http://www.dsmtuners.com/wiki/index.php/Checking_Turbo_Shaft_Play
I've never owned a turbo anything so this is all new to me. Thank you guys.
The car is not in the best of shape but the mechanic is only wanting 500 bucks for it. It runs, I've driven it twice, no knocking, shifts good, auto unfortunately. I've drained some of the fluids to make sure there isn't sawdust or something in the oil. The car has set for 3 years. Its going to...
