Bill,
In the interest of science and furthering the knowledge base of the community I would be happy to offer my car which has almost exactly 2000 miles on it's TB and needs retensioning, to be used to gain comparitive experience with the the 2 TB tools! Mark
PS YAY! I a "real" rennlister now!!

BTW I have a tech degree in electronics, though I got it way back in '85 I still have the ability to understand schematics and a good working knowledge. Perhaps we should have an "Electrical spagetti" party in Alamo some time and make some headway on your "other" shark

 

LOL! In this case, attendance might depend on whether it comes with tomato, pesto, or Alfredo sauce...


Beth: I'm sorry to hear that you are not through with the tension warnings. Hopefully you'll be able to figure it out soon! Maybe this is a reason for us to have another party? Well, not on March 5, please - I have to be in traffic school that day...

 

Beth,

Got my shark back on the road. Just as Jim Bailey recommended. Sticky caliper pistons on the outboard side of the caliper. A little emery cloth and I'm back in BWAAAAAAA heaven. You will be too very soon. I'm sure it is just an electircal malfunction.

Thanks again for the wonderful day. Your mom is really cool and fun to talk to. She shared her secret recipe for the saurekraut with me. WOO HOO! Man that stuff was amazing.

Cheers,

 

Nicole,
That's a good question!! Bill, what color is the interior? I really think we should match it don't you? M

 

Beth:

Not sure.

It appears the fan is fine, so the problem is in the fan controller (near passenger seat) or amplifier (on cowl in front of engine comparment) or in the wiring harness. so, we need to do some swapping of the possible parts to isolate the problem. Or maybe Dave A or Mark with all their electrical expertise can help us with the diagnosis. Keep it on the list for the next party as soon as we get a sunny weekend day.

 

His interior is black . . . . maybe really, really dark pesto?

Ok Nicole, not the 5th. I have a wedding to attend to Feb 26th. Nicole is out March 5th. I'll be in Disneyland March 10-13 (looks like the '85 will have to make the trip).

So it's looking like March 19th if the weather is good will be the day. Bill, how does that sound at this point? And would anyone else like to come visit again?

 

Sheesh Bill our messages crossed again. Ok, so we'll need electrical help at the next party. Dave and Mark, can you come play on March 19th?

 

Unfortunately I will be in San Diego that weekend M

 

Or the 26th?

 

That (the 26th) works for me!

 

Beth,

What are your fans doing (or not doing) that is causing you problems?

Rob

 

Rob:

She has one fan that won't come on even with the AC on. We swapped the other fan lead to it and it ran, so the fan is good, but that is as far as we got.

 

It is now official! The TB follow-up party is scheduled for March 26th (weather permitting)

Rob - one fan isn't working and the other one runs constantly.

 

There was no doubt that there was a leak, we just wanted to verify where exactly it was leaking from.... Women...



We were just yanking your chain with the "yep, it leaks" comments.... Anyway, glad to hear that the surgery was a success. We would have tested it at the time, but the silicon had not cured...

Anyway, I'm not sure if I'll be able to make the next one or not.... March 26th sounds good now, but a lot can happen to my schedule in 6 weeks.

 

I can come and hold a drop light or something.

Regards,
