'85 Golf Intake hookups-- what are they? by
Morris
I have an 85 golf that was converted from fuel injection to a
carburetor. On the intake manifold, there are two hookups on the right
side (the hoses have been removed) and they route 'something' under
the manifold (it doesn't enter the intake area, but it's part of the
actual metal). It goes in a U...

'85 Golf Won't start, carb spitback by
Morris
A little background info is in order-- I bought this car about 2 months
ago from a guy for $500 bucks. It's silver and the body is in great
shape. However, whoever owned the car before him pulled all the fuel
injection system out of the car and custom mounted a Motorcraft single
barrel carb on the...

'86 NIssan Maxima computer by
[email protected]
I know someone who said she has a computer problem, and her dealer
quoted "thousands of dollars" to fix it. Since she looks like a
classic "little old lady" I find myself wondering if we might do
better by her. I had a problem a few years ago that looked like a bad
computer problem, but was just a...

'87 BMW 325 not shifting into gears by
SQ
This is 1987 BMW 325i, 5-speed, with 185K miles.
Today it suddenly stopped shifting into gears - all gears when the
engine is running. It will only shift into gears if the engine is
turned off. Why is this happening? Could it be the clutch going bad?

'87 supra turbo - mass air sensor / excess induction system oil by
streamline
Will dead seals in the turbo cause excess oil to accumulate on the
intake side of the turbo and "foul" the mass air sensor ? related
question: engine revs good (albeit slightly) to about 1200 rpm then
dies as it tries to go higher. If you can feather the throttle to get
it past 1200 or so, it...

'88 Legend: CV, Ball Joint Boots by
Ryan Biggs
Hello all,
I'm replacing an axle on my '88 Acura Legend. Both outer CV joint
boots were torn, but I believe only the left axle was making noise.
(Noise was mostly in right turns, and it sounded like it was coming
from the left.) I am also noticing that the upper ball joint boots are
both torn, as...

'88 Mazda 626 - clutch pedal stays down by
Bill
Hello. I have a 1988 Mazda 626. A few days ago, the clutch pedal stopped
coming all the way back up after I changed gears. For a day or so I could
change gears okay but not it's to the point where I can't change gears and

A few questions I would appreciate any help on. Is...

Greetings,
My father-in-law's '88 Honda Prelude gradually lost it's AC
refridgerant charge such that the compressor would no longer engage. I

'88 Supra: Problem removing the driveshaft? by
$)Chachiroku +O+A+m+/
Looking at the driveshaft, there appears to be a small problem. This car
uses a 2-piece driveshaft; a front 'intermediate' shaft, a center carrier/
bearing, and then the rear shaft. The rear shaft is held in with 8 bolts,
4 bolts attaching it to the differential, and 4 bolts attaching it to a...

'89 Civic Project Complete - Or So I Thought by
Chris F.
Over a year after I started rebuilding this '89 Civic, everything appeared
to be in order so I had it towed to the nearest garage for inspection. The
inspector found a few loose nuts and bolts, and charged a ridiculous amount
of money to go over the vehicle and double-check my work, but...

'89 Civic Transmission Reassembly by

A while ago I removed the tranny from my '89 Civic to repair the clutch,
and while it was removed I decided to have a look inside. I considered a
full rebuild, but decided against it due to the time and cost, plus the fact
that the transmission still worked quite well overall. But putting the...

'89 Civic Won't Start After Sitting by

After nearly 9 months of laboring on this restoration, the time finally
came to see if the engine would still start. The car still isn't driveable
yet - it's still sitting on blocks and the suspension isn't all together
yet, but I thought hearing the engine roar to life again would give me a bit...

'89 Corolla strange A/C problem (heat mixing with AC) by

Hi,
I have a mechanically excellent '89 Corolla whose AC has worked great
until these past 2 years. I believe the heat's mixing with the AC and
would appreciate your advice on how to fix it. The AC does function
and I don't think the issue's low freon.
