Diary of a Grungy 86 Cosmosblau Sedan

[dvid3k]

I've got a lot done in the past few days:

• Fixed Speedometer
• Installed new Sachs Clutch master cylinder in turn fixing my low clutch pressure
• Replaced missing drip rail trim on the passenger side
• Got the recline feature to work on the drivers seat
• just about have the interior swap buttoned up, still have to to the rear window tray, one door panel, and that little carpet piece under the rear seat.
• cleaned the horrible filmy grime off the windows, visibility greatly improved :D

Next on the list of things to do will be install the timing belt, water pump, belts and all other associated parts.

A photo before I gave it up for the evening.

Thanks! :) My problem was in the speedometer or gauge cluster, I checked out the diff sensor and all was well so I tried swapping the cluster with another and luckily it did the trick and I didn't have to do any further troubleshooting.

Started the timing belt replacement today and I'm definitely glad that I did so, its doubtful this one has ever been changed, judging by its condition.









I have no idea why I take my gloves off sometimes, radiators and knuckles are not friends.
