    I just bolted a short piece of 2x2 square tubing just behind the wheel that sticks out about 6 inches to either side with bolts through the tube ends vertically that are adjusted to about a inch from the floor so it can't tip far enough to fall. I just about ruptured a gut the first time it started to tip, I was just glad it was a m10 and not some big block v8.

    Looking good, the 3 wheel engine stand show is somewhat unstable if the front wheel stops while moving, think screwdriver on the floor, so be care full when moving.

    Measure the distance between the 2 top holes and compare that to you m10 if it the same it'll fit.

    Your solution might be as simple as a battery disconnect switch for long term storage.

    Maybe try attaching the ground to the flasher body with a hose clamp?

    There could also be rust in the wheel cylinders that's not allowing the brake pistons fully retracting.

    Some electric fuel pumps are pull through capable so you can just plumb it into your rubber fuel line near the tank and wire it to a momentary switch and prime when you need it otherwise let it run on the mechanical pump.

    If they are that deep into your car it's been stolen already.

    The front bumper can be fitted to a 02 and the contour makes for a nice tucked in look. Ive also seen a 02 with the e21 dash fitted but that takes quite a bit of work.

    The connection on the green and red wire at the front of your resistor needs attention and your starter bypass relay has wires missing from it.

    Stuck needle valve? Old gas makes a pretty good glue when it dries at least enough to cause your needle valve to stick.

    Is that a crack in your first picture just behind the timing chain tensioner on the block or is just the picture?

    The was a actress named Isabella Duncan who had her long scarf get caught in the knock off wheel spinner of her sport car killing her. Safety rules are usually paid for in blood, other than Ralf Nader's crusade against the Corsair which was based originally on the fact that the sportier version had staggered tire sizes and that must be unsafe.

    When you get into the doors be sure to clean and lube the window track guides and etc. A well cleaned and lubed window should go up and down with almost no effort.

    The oil pressure should be taken from the factory location it's at the end of the road so to speak of the oil system so if oil pressure is there it's everywhere you need, taking it from the oil filter housing it may show pressure long after the top end is dry. As stated above all electric aux gauges need to be matched with the proper senders to work.

    Your alternator is fine what you need is a new voltage regulator.

    Did it hurt when you stubbed your toe in the middle of the night?😫

    Red is a particularly bad color for a ground wire in most applications it's a power wire.

    I guess that no one has tried this so someone has to risk the 8.40 and give it a try.

    Exhaust leak at the head?
  24. Son of Marty
    The op ask about welding them shut, I my self seal them down with 3m 5200.

    Just because the M/C is new doesn't make it good especially now days, when you press the brake pedal is there any play before the brakes work, there should be so that the M/C can fully return to the rest position.
