Projects looking good. Here are a fuel maintenance suggestions while you have the whole car apart.

- Probably a good time to replace the fuel filter (consider relocating the unit) as well. Located above your rear diff.
- Inspect your motor mounts for wear (mine were shot)
- Inspect/ address your fuel pulsation dampener these tend to cause engine fire when they fail (details here)
- Check your oil pan for leaks, most everyone is running an oil pan brace

Some good tech resources to look through here

 

Been quite a while since I updated, but the car is going to be painted this upcoming week finally! Just finishing up some body work tonight. Also, some of the parts I've had to order in the meantime.

 

 

Well guys, I'm happy to announce I just got finished with the best thing I've done to the car! I'm proud to announce Montego Blue is gone and Vintage Red is in!

 

VR? Ewwww!


J/k....see sig.

Seriously, looks great. Will look even better as it goes back together. Should be a fun reassembly.

 

Got the car wet sanded and buffed today! It's looking great!

 

Ok guys, I think I need your help. My sunroof glass has a bubble or something in the glass. It is not a chip. My problem is I can't find a replacement anywhere online and I am scared to think of how much a new replacement will cost, if even available, even through Ray... Also, I am having a problem finding a door weather seal kit for an FD. It would be nice to have a whole seal kit. Thanks guys.

 

So I found out the "chip" is a temper mark from the factory and is supposed to be there. My next issue is trying to ID the REAR harness #FD04-67-06YF. Any help identifying what it connects to would be appreciated.

 

I know it's been a long time. The car kind of became a back burner project, but I'm finally getting around to putting it all back together!

 

Looks good. I see you kept emissions.
