 |
|
Last night I made out a shopping list of bits required for the newly aquired 924
The list read like this
Oil, Oil filter
Distributor cap, rotor arm, plugs
Timing belt, fan belt
Waterpump (On order)
Thermostat
Front brake pads
Front wheel bearings
Steering gaitors (On order)
Rear drums (On order)
Rear shoes (On order)
Rear cylinders (On order)
Various bits of fuel pipe and hose clips.
The front pads were rusted in so tight the calipers had to be removed to enable the pads to be twisted to aid removal with a large hammer,
The caliper pistons move well but the sliding carriers were again seized solid, no maintenance for a very long time, I do like the way everything appears to be inspired by the VW Beetle

Also include:
Vacuum line tubing
A pint of faith
A liter of luck
And if that doesn't work, plenty of mind altering sedatives to relieve the pain of utter failure.

I also run a 2000 Range Rover P38 4.0 auto so I am well used to utter failour

the mind altering sedatives are a definite necessity if you have any distributor troubles.
