Sunday Funday:

Went to a local Cadillac show. Some really nice centenarians on display.

And a cousin from the other side of the tracks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

'Karate Kid' - Mr. Miyagi's car was a '48 Ford. That's a '49 Cadillac


I like Caddy's too ... have '59 tail lights on my Dyna (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif)

^^ those tail lights look freaking awesome.

Just a bunch of little things getting done, like installing all these little things from 914rubber, Pelican Parts, and AutoAtlanta....

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1557986790.1.jpg)

Took the time to make sure all 5 injectors sprayed appropriately. My 914 was the best candidate for supplying fuel, just had to fix a gas tank leak and unstick the pressure regulator first. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) My car has been 1 hour away from running for like 10 hours now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1557986791.2.jpg)

Injectors -- 2 white lite grey & 2 green teal. Right ones for a stock 1.8L? (edit) Looks like 112 & 105, which would be good to go.

Greenies are for 2.0L ... 1.7L are yellow. I have no idea what color the 1.8L injectors are (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ... the only 1.8L motors I've had were all carb'd.

They could be blue or purple, IIRC. Look for part numbers on them.

Out with the kinky, in with the virgins.
Clutch, accelerator and heater cables replaced, and some rubber stuffs. Pedal area back to normal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1558765174.1.jpg)

@Mikey914 seems to have a shrinkage problem.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Engine tin heater hose seals easily pop out, and I couldn't get 8mm hard lines to slide thru the FI hose 45* grommets.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1558765175.2.jpg)

Forgot I need to acquire a few trans parts. The dished pieces between the trans ears and the mounts, the 2 fat washers & matching nuts, (car came with 2 sizes) and the doohickey that mounts on shift rod to move trans ball end rod. I have these but will need replacements when I get around to doing car #3 - can pickup at WCR...
also a stock banana muffler for a 1.8L.

Renn-Shifting Gears without Aaron Kaufman.

One of the aftermarket goodies getting installed.

I could make a joke about the POs knob being so firm that no matter how hard I wacked it I couldn't get it off, but I figure some of you would come unglued, unlike the knob...

But I did get to lay my hands on a nice piece. Took only an hour with a COMPLETELY NORMAL amount of fondling (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) I get excited for fine engineering (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

One of the key features is the ability to clock the knob away from your knee if you are over 6 foot three.

I know.... it's been awhile. Got sidetracked with trying to get my 914N6 to WCR19. Then a small injury to my tool hand and then had to play catch up.

First up, Chi-town came through with the trans mounts we needed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572290392.1.jpg)


The black overspray finally got to me, so while I had the polisher out doing the Dung Beetle, I hit it real quick. Not just clean but BLING!

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572290393.2.jpg)


Back to the todo list... tried a few techniques but what worked best was to cut to length then sand the 45* edge in and a touch up after it was installed.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572290394.3.jpg)


Popped right in with silicone spray (ArmorAll) and a flat blade.

Chris, is this a customer's car - or do you own it now?

Nice color

Wait, there's more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Ripped out the gas tank, literally (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572291406.1.jpg)


...to install Tangerine SS lines (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572291407.2.jpg)


There is a sweet spot for sliding them in. In other words....it took a few tries. I also added sliced hose to the center tunnel clamps to prevent rub thru and rattles. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-431-1572291407.3.jpg)


Then to finish off the day I did a little metal shaping to the dinged up front channel so the seal fit appropriately.
