I was not going to start thread until the car was home, but it is getting close and I want to share some pictures of the car and the progress.

The air box is in. I was very apprehensive about getting it back in place and really did not have a plan. I don't read all the post, but I had not seen one that said it was easy. I had a few starts and stops and a few redos. I seperated box from fan then installed the box. With the box in I didn't have room to attach the control wire. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Start over. Removed air box to allow room to attach control wire. Even with the box removed this was the most difficult task. I had marked the spot where the wire was attached so I knew where it needed to be. With the washers and a tight fit this gave me a fit. I ended up putting in the bolt with the small hole in and then the near washer and used a little super glue to hold them in place. After the nut secured the wire in place I attached the outer rubber cable. With the wire control in place the fan will set flat and there is room to insert air box. It slid up easily and tightened the box in place. I hooked up electric wire before attaching fan. Getting the fan bolted to box was a challenge. I had to get some longer 5 mm bolts to align it then hold it in place while I got the short bolts in. I don't know if valve is supposed to be completely close, but it wont be on this car. At this position the fan was blowing full and flat was wide open. I don't know if this is perfect , but I don't want to start over. |
