    1G Wheel bearings.

    Try Rockauto,much cheaper prices for what you need than your local store. Local stores are nice for quick pickups though,if they have them in stock.

    Chick magnet?? or not lol

    Paint your car to match this,and start spouting off quotes like Dom "I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free." Instant chick magnet :D

    From hub bearing to disaster! Please help

    No need to drill if you have a Dremel and a cut-off wheel,or similar tool to use. Grind that down until it's flush and smooth and you can pull it out of the sway bar.

    My low cost high compression daily driver E85

    Subscribed. I've been toying around with the idea of building a junkyard G4CS and putting it in my '63 swapped Colt haha. Don't know how safe that little tin can would be but it sure would be hella fun:D

    Water Pump... Seal?

    Use a light layer of silicone to keep the gasket on the water pump during install,at least the night before so it can dry. I did not put any on the side that rests against the block,no leaks on mine. You can use it or not,just don't glob it on there. And make sure you get the old gasket off...

    Beavis and Butthead

    Early 2000's new episodes of 'Wren and Stimpy' were made,on Spike TV. Around the time 'Stripperella' was on if anyone remembers that animation. Glad to see 'Beaver and Butthole' back on the air,can't wait!!!

    Easiest way to drain gas tank?

    If a gas tank doesn't have a drain plug,go to Harbor Freight and buy a simple siphon pump. Cheap and easy,it may only work once(gas may eat out the seals)but well worth as they are inexpensive.

    ebay not so knock off?

    It's always a gamble,look at how many threads are on this site and that should give you a clue. Sometimes you get a good one,often times they don't last. I would rather spend $300 dollars on a rebuilt MHI turbo(I did) than $300 on a turbo that may grenade sooner than later. PM jusmx141,a...

    just accidentally cranked my car with no oil!!!!!!

    the OP took off the oil pan to re-tap the threads that were stripped out for the oil return...then he mentions 6 bolt swap...sounds like he has a turbo to me,even if he didn't update his profile to reflect that:)

    timing belt tensioner

    Strange. My bolt wasn't exactly rubbing the belt all the time but after start-up you could see it 'slapping' it. Wish I would have taken pictures of it. And,at first I didn't think any bolts were touching it either,but the closest to the crank sprocket was the culprit,if I remember right.

    timing belt tensioner

    It's caused by the wrong bolt in the oil pan,the one that comes thru and near the oil pump sprocket. Someone put the a long one in,instead of a short one. Same thing happened to me,thanks to the PO. Take off the timing cover and you can see it almost touch the belt. Either replace it with a...

    Weirdest crap you found on your car

    Wow I would love to see more! I worked with a guy that had a '97 RS that when he last rebuilt the transmission he couldn't get the nut back on one side of the axle,stripped out the threads...so he just put the wheel on and drove it like that for months until he traded it in!

    It's a little nipple-like plug end on the ps pump,might not be easily seen,feel around there and you'll find it. I had to pinch mine a bit with pliers and then press it on.

    difference in 4g63 from auto than 5spd?

    1g fuel pressure regulators are different from the auto to 5-speed. I had to change mine out when I added 450 injectors and manual ecu. Different flow rates.As far as the 2g is concerned,just the auto and 5-speed are the differences as has already been stated.

    Yesterday I pumped gas at my local Sunoco,went to take off and the car wouldn't crank over. Thinking it was just the fuse to my fuel pump rewire,I popped the hood and changed it. Nothing,and the old fuse wasn't blown. F@#k. Clean both terminals,nothing. Check where the rewire relay is to see if...
