Your fuckin welcome for the wonderful idea I gave you. lol

Its that dead I tried already, and I live in the back of my complex and the nearest hill is about 1.5 blocks....

[Matt-B]

jump start?

[cbake82]

So i go to pull the selector rod outta the ix to put it in the eta and number one I think the ix has a aftermarket short shift kit in it, and everything looks different. And Number two the battery is completely dead in the eta and the nearest hill is a block an a half a way... man I just can't win can I....

[cbake82]

Nice thanks bro

iX selector Rod # 25 11 1 220 565

85-86 selector rod 325e

25 11 1 220 565



should work

[cbake82]

Yeah I think I'm just gonna use the shift linkage from the ix and put it in the eta, and if I need to I can use the tires to if I need to

[Matt-B]

dont pull off head yet

or they cant check it really, while its running

take it somewhere with the head on. The car was what 1500$ something could have been wrong. For that price still a good deal :) keep your head up

[cbake82]

So EJKnight came over and adjusted them too and it still did it so I think Im gonna have to take it to a shop, or just have it towed to my place and take the head off and bring it to someone... Man this sucks!

So i tried doing this myself yesterday, and it was a no go. I did it twice and first time it sounded amazing at idle and sound really bad at 2k, then redid it and it was a little rougher at idle and got bad about 2200 so I am over this shit and am now willing to pay someone to do it today, I know its superbowl day but Im told that if you know what you're doing it shouldn't take more then an hour. And I am with out a car currently and need one to get to clackamas tomorrow morning for a certification class thats only once a month. I don't have a job currently and this class will get me one. but I have to get there, and can't with out a car, yeah no buses go out that far... Please Someone help me

Sucks man! Makes me glad the M42 has self adjusting valves

Drove it there and did the valves, its from the valves genius, that has nothing to do with fuel pressure...

Oh my bad must have read wrong, my car used to cut out at 3 to 4k turned out I had low fuel pressure.

[cbake82]

Check your fuel pressure
