First thing is first - check the level of the brake fluid in the master cylinder. The light being on will not cause the vehicle to operate in limp mode.Good thread for reference: https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/ebrake-light-stays-on.36497/

It appears another ‘90 non-turbo transmission should be a direct swap. I cross-referenced part numbers for clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, fork, slave cylinder, and both axles against a December 1989 non-turbo VIN. They all match. The transmission for the December VIN, however, is...

Agreed. For that VIN, the transmission model pops up in CAPS as KM206-0-DJNS, part number MD995455. Very early transmission - VIN specifies production period of the vehicle to be the first third of March, 1989.Why the KA instead of KM20, I haven’t a clue.

1G Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser, and USDM GVR4 Spark plug cover. Again, not 100% correct. Use for reference only or assume any and all associated risks. /covermyasslegalese

I spent wayyyy too much time trying to replicate the complete geometry of the 1G Talon / Laser cover. I know it’s not perfect (nominal thickness in the center section is pretty thin) but it’s a decent overall representation.And, certainly, I’m overdoing it but it was an interesting challenge. 👍

It was a pull from a junkyard. You’ll catch me in a lie if I said I remembered for sure. I don’t think I used vice grips, but I might have. One way or the other, I got it out.Definitely had to use vice grips on the pump outlet fitting on the top of the housing - nothing unusual there (as...

This is what I observed on the last pump I pulled:fuel pump > grommet > O-ring > spacer > hangerAnd, on the bottom of the pump, looks like you’re missing the pump seat / grommet that snugs it up to the housing.

Search dust collection hose or flex drain hose.

And the AMG spark plug cover is part number MD146678. :thumb:

How are you running the wires for those gauges? Are they routed behind the A-pillar trim and, if so, did you not have to drill a hole through the trim to allow the wires to pass through?

I can say that the 1Ga wings are polyphenylene oxide.I’m petty certain the material was the same for the 1Gb.

So it’s not just Fluidampr that has some “compatibility issues”. Good to know.1G timing belt questions/fluidampr questions

I’m assuming that you’re still using your crank trigger plate and balance shaft sprocket (or balance shaft spacer)?I would imagine that this would simply butt up to those.

You’re talking about this washer?Looks like it is for the crank bolt itself, installed inside of the hub, after installing the hub on the crankshaft.How far off are the pulleys on your engine currently?

I’d actually vote bolt # 8, as shown on VFAQ, for that one. Looks too large relative to the others to be bolt # 6. But a quick measure to determine whether it is a M8 (coincidentally, # 8 bolt) or M6 (again, coincidentally, # 6 bolt) would sort that out.#6 is for the starter plate, but...

It depends on the yard. Our “original” local Pull-a-Part lists long blocks for $185 with a $20 core.LKQ seems to have increased prices on everything lately. That automatically tacked on additional cost for the warranty is ridiculous. For those that may not be aware - you do not have to...

Gotta ask - you’re positive that they aren’t 3/8” - 16?16 TPI equates to 0.0625 inch pitch, just larger than a metric 1.5mm pitch (0.06 inches). The diameter is too large for a M9 and too small for a M10. I’d expect the diameter to be slightly under the nominal measure (.375), though .364...

A GST and a GST Spyder will use the same axles; they use the same transmission so there’s no reason they wouldn’t. These have 27 splines on the transmission side.A GS Spyder (non-turbo) will use different axles, with only 25 splines on the transmission side, making them non-interchangeable...

It’s the OEM MB631110 bumper with the “optional” MB631124 lip.It did look alright even though it had met too many parking blocks before getting to me. Shame on me, but I’m pretty certain I threw out the lip some time ago. Still have the bumper cover, just in case.

Nope.You could post a Want to Buy ad in the classifieds for a FWD 1G hanger. I’m sure someone here has a spare they could sell you.

Yes.

First is my brother's 1993 GS that he got in 2001. That's what got he and I into it -- more me than he at this point.He ended up selling that and picking up a 1996 3000GT base model before I found my first 1990 GS, around September 2003. My family still has this car around and it is...

The front roll stop is the same for all 2Gs with the same style transmission - all auto cars use the same front roll stop and all manual cars use the same (but different from the auto) roll stop.The rear roll stop is only common across 4G6# models. Again, the auto roll stop is different than...

Generally speaking, 7-bolt rods cannot be used in a 6-bolt engine and vice versa.Get 6-bolt rods for your 6-bolt block and then modify them to accept the 2G pistons if need be. See here for the machining details.

True. Claudio was the tech we came to trust at our local dealership, while it was around. Learned quite a few things early on from him. 👍I’m really conjecturing over here and maybe shooting at nothing, but it was an interesting enough question. Now that I sit down for a minute and think...

Whoever figured it out made sure that the FSM, at least in later years, mentioned it. This screen grab is the ‘97 FSM. That note, interestingly enough, is not found in the ‘95 FSM.This is interesting and I’m not sure what to make of it. Perhaps this is the difference between the early ‘95...

Pardon my technical intrusion, for those who may be interested.This is for a 6-bolt. Assuming my model is correct and that I didn’t just model it to where this would work - the grenade pin method works because:The distance to the tip of the hydraulic tensioner to the center of the hole in...

If you’re looking at NPR, it looks like the turbo version crosses to 11-546 (MD129232) and the non turbo version to 11-540 (MD129922).This thread has a couple members mention they’ve used N/T pistons in turbo cars...

Since this has been said, why not consider 6-bolt non-turbo pistons, axe any machine work to the rods, and get 9.0:1 right out the box?

2G Fuel Issue, perhaps?
