Setnev Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Did you correct the beam pattern for "Drive on Right" traffic? Yep, I did it the quick and dirty way with the aluminum foil method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo F Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Installed a new Pioneer double DIN head unit in the '97 GT today. It now has a 21st century sound system (and it's about to go to my 17 year old son who will appreciate that :-) ). I also found where someone had disconnected the subwoofer connections in the dash for some reason that that now works too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jes. Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Were the seats bolt in or did you have to be creative? My back has always been unhappy after a couple hours in our 1998 GT seats, whereas our 2006 GT seats are good for a road trip... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Ninjabot Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I replaced the alternator on the side of the road after the light popped on and I noticed I was only putting out 7 volts. Thankfully I made it to the parts store and they had a reman unit in stock. Took 16 minutes and I had my core charge back in my account. Not exactly what I wanted to do on my lunch break, but I still made it back to the office in time. All is good and now I'm onto the water pump on the girlfriends Saab (I'd much rather burn the car down). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choover1101 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I drove to St. Louis from Abilene, TX and back. 1600 miles total 23 mpg with the lift and larger tires. Everything went well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublechaz Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Parked mine in front of the house as a warning while I went away for a conference the last few days. Everything went fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twisty Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 i leaned against one of my 2nd gens while trying to figure out why the alternator in my 3rd gen wont charge the battery. still havent figured that one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublechaz Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Changed my oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublechaz Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 In response to the reasonable temperatures I pulled some more parts off my parts car. It got too dark to figure out the pedal box, but I got most of the stuff surrounding it out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doublechaz Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I guess it's time to get a starter. Tried to start the car a few minutes after parking it hot. Electical loaded down, but no crank. Checked connections. Wouldn't crank until I gave the starter a couple solid knocks with the ice scraper, then started right up. The one from the parts car is completely done, and this one has given me about 10 years of service so new one it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublimejoe Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 My Legacy does that too. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it either, sometimes it will start right up first try. Other times I will sit for an hour trying everything possible, then it just magically starts after a thousand tries. I have replaced the starter recently, so I guess its the solenoid or something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBT Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Likely not the starter itself. Replace the contacts and the plunger on the starter, you'll be surprised at how quickly your starter comes back on line.

doublechaz Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) For mine I have a really bad starter from my parts car that I will turn in for the COR. Mine I will keep and be ready to rebuild it. I just am not interested in running with a starter I don't trust 100%. When you are miles out in the bush and it won't start... Well, I like to plan my camping trips ahead of time. But I agree it's the solenoid, contacts and plunger. No torque problem once it kicks out.

doublechaz Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I cut up the shifter from my parts car and welded it back together with different dimensions. +7/8" below the linkage, -2 3/8 above. Short shifter. I had to take a little out of the metal plate that holds the rubber gasket in place to allow the linkage to hit 1st gear. Time for a drive...
