So I'm pretty much done swapping everything over to the longblock that I'm swapping into my brother's car. Only problem is I've got the fan/alt/cooling tin on, and I have a 3 rather important bolts left over and I can't figure out where they go. Everthing I've put on seems all proper like, and I seem to remember these bolts coming off the fan shroud, but I can't find the holes. I baggied 'em up, but forgot the labeling bit for this bag. I looked through the exploded diagrams with no luck IDing them, so thought maybe someone who's an old hand at this could help.
Thanks! Attached image(s) |

Figured it out. They're for the Brake Master Cyl/ Gas tank cover. |

I hate when I put everything back together and still end up with extra nuts and bolts. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)

Those are the very rare and hard to find bush bolts...
Fire up the car, make sure everything works, and throw the bolts into a bush... problem solved (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I heard a mechanic say that one day... they wont get my buisness... BJH |

You're missing one of the little bolts and a washer for one of the big ones. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
Also, those big ones do more than just hold the cover on, they also hold the rear of the front suspension on.. so don't forget them! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

I've tracked down the missing bolt, but still no luck with the washer. Bush bolts...I like that. I was half tempted to chuck the suckers, but I figured something that big had ta be important. Sure was scratching my head for a while there, I'd forgotten I'd taken the cover off to yank the fuel tank, and there was nothing like 'em in the factory 914/4 engine manual. |
