Luckily I had a DFIS 11mm rebuild on the shelf so it wasn't too bad. Benny is my little buddy. My wife is gonna take him for a consult, but one of thr DVM's she works with said the replacement is 3 grand. http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s45/GREENFEATHER1/legs282-1.jpg http://i149.photobucket.com/...

I can't catch a break. Had to put a new IP on the Golf, I think Stinky's on the back burner till spring. Our pup is gonna need hip replacement surgery sooner rather than later ($3000). CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!!!!

Big Red's decided she didn't like her accumulator, lol. Another $300 shot all to hell.

You guys are aiight, don't care what anyone says about you. :mrgreen: OK, back to Stinky. Finished up all but the rear cylinders, gonna get them done tomorrow, then try and trouble shoot the Eco a little bit, I have a guru of the Eco coming down over Thanksgiving. I'm torn between getting a diesel i...

Ran into several issues. Broken brake bleeder, decided to replace the front calipers and the pass side cylinder is toast, both are getting the heave ho tomorrow. Guard you hatch struts like they're GOLD, there is 1 Cabrio hatch strut in the northern hemisphere and it's in Canada and it is $60 + ship...

OK, rear axle done, new BFI control arms with urethane bushings installed. Gonna bleed the brakes and drop in the motor tomorrow.

OK, got the fuel line finished, tomorrow will be the rear axle reinstall. I promise I'll get some pictures tomorrow. With daylight so short in the evening, pics are the last thing on my mind with winter getting ready to set in on use next week. Oh yea, forgot to add this. Diesel and gas mixed smells...

It ain't in there no more, lol. I found it on ETKA last night. Now I need to figure out which is the pump side and return side and pull a whole new pressure side, it's a mess. I though Red had bad fuel lines, Stinky's are just as bad if not worse. :( I'm hoping I can set the NA in there this weekend...

There's a little black box thing that's clipped to the fuel cell, between the fuel cell and the frame rail. WTF is it? It has 3 lines going in and our of it. The HP fuel pump and accumulator is out already. I tried to get a pic of it, but it won't stay out where I can get a good shot of it.

The new BFI control arms showed up today as did the new fuel line for M's 90. I'ma be BUSY BUSY BUSY this weekend, lol. Hopefully I can get the front end done on Stinky and the fuel cell drained and the diesel neck installed. Then trouble shoot the no start on the Eco before I rip it out and transpl...

I'll get a pic of the press this weekend. It's raining and my sinuses are HOWLING right now so I dunno how much we're gonna get done this weekend. Might be a Darvocet and screw the pain kinda weekend, lol. I have a spare mount if anyone needs one for the 1.6d.

I might have a set of those bolts laying around. I'll check and let you know. Already fixed it. It's nice to have a lathe and the know how to fix things, lol. So here's where we stand. Eco on the trailer sitting in the back yard, rear axle beam ready to be reinstalled and not enough time to do a da...

Well, hit another bump in the road. I was going to change the rear axle bushings and the steel bushing is rust welded to the bolt. :rmad: I'm going to go over to the shop and turn it off the bolt since trying to find a damned M14X160mm bolt is almost impossible and they are no longer available from ...

STOP THE PRESSES!!! I may have found another motor, 1992 Eco. Going to go look Saturday, w00t!

Brake line is done, have to change the soft line on the other side. The steering rack is in, the motor mount pressed in ON THE MOTOR . :D You don't need to take it off, I built a small press, but it needs a revision and the addition of some hardened all thread. I stretched it and snapped the all thr...
