hey,
so my rear brakes are squeeling pretty loud about 50% of the time that i'm braking. i'm thinking i must have let the hand brake on at some point or another. anyway, as far as i know these are original rotors (90k on car). fairly smooth feeling. the pads have a little life left on them... at least it looks that way to my untrained eye. anyway, i'd rather just order new pads. i'm a pretty mellow driver..but if it's time for new rotors...then it's time what do you think? (i wanted to measure them but i could not find a ruler in the entire house...hopefully a quarter will be enough for one of you guys, i know it's supposed to be at least 10 mm (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1564.jpg) moving on...aren't i missing a cover on this linkage? (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1572.jpg) how are these tranny mounts looking? (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1574.jpg) (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1570.jpg) finally, any idea what chord got cut out this set coming out of the fire wall in the engine bay? (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1565.jpg) what does this adjust? it look like there's another adjusting mechanism attached downstream of the fuel pump. i'm sorry i'm still getting my feet wet working on cars (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1567.jpg) shot of it's location in engine bay... (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1568.jpg) this would be the coil? (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1566.jpg) with the switch to the carb, the layout of the engine is a bit different than the manual's so i just want to make sure i'm not calling someting a coil when it's something else? again, thanks in advance for all the help guys, one day soon with me reading the manuals every free second i get and this board, ill have half an idea what i'm doing... |
