Its an addiction.....She has 194,194miles on the odometer and runs pretty sweet, besides the large amount of grey smoke it produces when accelerating and a pretty bad oil leak(im REALLY hoping its not the rear seal).
Ill take it day by day with her and get her up to good operating condition. First things first it needs some glow plugs asap.
Unfortunetly the body has some rust here and there, especially along the bottom of the rear windshield, and a few small dents..no biggie.
The interior isnt too awful, ive driven in worse.
I havnt done anything to her besides removing the lower foglights, mounting the roofrack for my kayak, and cutting off the muffler, havnt even washed her yet.

(02-27-2011, 04:50 PM)Jtn190D Looks nice Its strange to see rust from SoCal. Did it come from the North?
It will do
Yeah rust in socal is purrty rare, but this car lived most of its life near the beach..so that explains alot of it

Sweeeet, i belive i have all that already, i will double check and make sure.
Checked all my GPs and only one was bad so i replaced that with a top of the line junkyard model hahah.
Cleaned out the banjo going into the intake manifold, it was pretty sooty, but nothing horrific. Also cleaned out the banjo going into the ALDA and the lines goin into the overboost protection.
How important is it to have the overboost connected? Do you guys know of any engine failures that came from the overboost being bypassed?
Ive fucked with the ALDA before on previous cars, and ADA too, but each time the cap was already removed from it, this car still has the cap on..what is the safest way to remove the cap?

I made a REAL BONE HEAD move today.
This morning i took of the the injector lines so i can test a GP i was having doubts about. And when i was screwing the lines back on i accidently cross threaded the nut that screws onto the injection pump..
I feel like a total doofus doing somthing so ridiculous.
So the part that the nut screws on, on the IP is fucked.
If i take that off to replace it, that means i need to have the pump put on a bench to get it to run right again..right? I belive sitting right below that is the delivery valve, so id be screwing with that wich i know isnt good.
Im real bummed right now!

You can remove the piece that the injector line screws onto! You have to remove it and remove the delivery valve when you time the IP. Your good dude.

I disconnected the EGR and all related vacume hoses wich seemed to help out on the amount of grey smoke.
I also turned the ALDA all the way out, wich made a slight difference and made the turbo spool up a tad quicker.
Ill get some video up when i get some good tires on her.

But in all seriousness,
No ALDA on the '81, almost no smoke, Night and day difference in acceleration off the line
Maybe the smoke is so little because I haven't done anything inside the pump yet?

To those reading later, torque control should not be touched. It will cause the engine to not return to idle and not cutoff fuel on deceleration.

All torque control will do is alter the rpm where the fuel starts to get cutoff. It doesn't alter maximum power.

So i took out the cruise control, and took off the trim below the taillights and headlights(looks 20x better without the trim)
Now theres going to be a few small holes in the body that are going to need to be filled so i dont get excess moisture in the trunk, so my question is, what brand of body filler should i go with on this??
Ive never done any proper body work, and im not looking for a showroom finish by any means. I bought the car mostly for its engine not its rust riddled body. The only reason im not going to weld them shut, is i just dont care enough about this car to invest that much in its body..rather put money and time into the engine.

Torque control screw was what i was reffering too, but i was just asking dieselboy according to his signature.

So today i took ol' Ingrid to a dollar carwash down the road to try an get some grease off from the undercarriage, so i used my trusty mercedes jack to lift up the front passenger side of my car so i could squirt her off with degreaser. As im cranking the jack up, i hear some cracking and i find out this car has even worse rust than i thought.
The hole that the jack goes into rusted out...
