Windshield Wiper Picture & exhaust pipe
Now its the Holiday season and I would really appreciate this request !
I just regisered my 85 Rx7 and I had to take the wiper assembly apart a while ago because the linkage was siezed up. Now that the linkage is a free I cannot figure out how all the little plastic pieces go back together. I need a picture of a close up of where the Wiper arm meets the spindle. Like a side view where I can see how the plastic peices are stacked. Its only 4 peices and 2 screws per arm but its just not making any sense to me. So again it would be REALLY Appreciated if someone could take a shot or two of the wiper linkage. (Where arm bolts to Spindle)
Also The metal tube that runs from the 3rd cat to the back the engine broke right at the cat. What is this for? Emissions? Can I just plug the cat hole and block off the engine side or does this tube have to be there?
Thanks guys you are all very helpful! And have a great Holiday!

If no one else gets a pic up before me I can take one later of the wiper layout (you want to know how the pieces on the outside of the body just under the wiper arm go right?)
As for the pipe on the cat, that goes from the Air Control Valve (ACV) which is fed air from the air pump (belt driven on the passenger side of the engine) and gives the cat air to help it work more effectivly/efficiently. If you have emissions inspection (I think NY got rid of that no?) then technically you don't need it, but it could cause your cat to melt/plug up down the line...

Yes! I found a picture of a car for sale on eBay and I saw a far shot of the plastic peice giving me a some what better idea. I think the one plastic peice goes inside and the rest goes on the outside. I just totally forgot and appreciate the picture!
And for the ACV valve i guess i will try and weld it up. Im gonna leave all the emisions crap on there for now because ive read with no cats and no rats nest that people get poor fuel encomy and no real power gain.
