I tried registering on the site, but never got an e-mail, and I sent an e-mail to the only address I could find, twice. If anyone here that's on those boards could send an admin over there a PM, tell them to activate the account Troux, or e-mail me (cbonnerm@aol.com) soon. I need help with my new car! Thanks!

 

you don't need that site, just a bunch of cali tards. you got the one and only Hachibill right here. what do you need to know??? i don't do chebby's.

 

What did you buy? Post pics

 

I got a beat-up 1985 SR5 hatch. It's got 189K miles. Biggest problems first: Once in a while it dies at idle (didn't during my test drive), and I noticed the brake pedal goes a far distance before actually stopping the car. This problem is worst when coming off throttle, and not quite as bad when the engine is idling.

I'm thinking both of these problems are vaccum leak issues. If you ever get some spare time, I'll probably just need some help sorting things out, finding what goes where when I redo my vacuum lines. I don't plan on goign through the trouble of a 4AGE swap, as this is just meant to be a daily beater.

Anyways, if you got some time, it'd be good to have an AE86 expert like yourself come take a look at it!

 

Nice, how much did you pic it up for? The 4ac sucks some donkey balls but its decent for a daily.

 

It was cheap. I don't care about speed, really. Just MPG and reliability.

 

Ok, well HachiBill isn't responding to PMs or IMs, anyone know where I can get info online for the SR5?

 

ok most of the time those sr5 are carb if yours is i take it most of the time it comes from the float in the carb being stuck also timing can be in afect to far behind or to far ahead can kill ur car while idling or warm up problem

 

Hmm, I'll definitely look into that. Thanks!
