I’ve got a 89 custom cruiser that I’m trying to put a olds 350 into and a can’t find the right motor mounts. It’s got the stock mounts I believe but this is its 3rd motor. Does anyone know where to get the right mounts?
Getting closer and closer. My neighbor is an old racer and gear head and had an almost new generic Carter carb laying around he sold me for a great deal today. I am unsure about the matte black air cleaner, wondering if I should go chrome to keep with the theme here. I don’t hate it just unsure.
My baby I miss this car fucking people steel your shit
Has anyone used these people for parts? They seem like they have a ton of parts but never list prices and ask you to dm them. Looking for information.
Hi friends,
First time poster here, happy to report my first car is an Olds! Specifically, the 02 Intrigue with the 3.5 LX5 Shortstar.
Love the car, a dream to drive, paid just under 2000 for it with 129000 KM on the odo.
I've noticed a couple problems that seem to plague older W-Body cars, first, the driver's side window refuses to operate, other windows work fine. After a jumpstart went wrong (reversed polarity, my friend was absolutely out of it while putting the cables on, thankfully didn't start it with the polarity reversed.) The window magically worked again... For two whole days... The window motor seemed to work perfectly fine after the jumpstart.
Second, I've noticed a coolant smell, not from the exhaust, but the tires and under the hood... Trying to diagnose this, I'm assuming there's a very small hairline crack somewhere? From what I've read, the coolant surge tank is pressurized and the older plastic can develop hairline cracks... But unsure.
Any assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated, I love this ride so far!! The previous owner took great care, kept on top of maintenance, and I'd love to continue that.
Thanks!!
Hello good people , i have done some small repairs on my car and the bigger stuff i usually leave for the professionals. I have this tiny hose leaking some coolant and i want to change it . Question is , if there is going to be air in the system after changing it , if yes , how do i get rid of it ? Or should i not worry about it ? Any tips or tricks ? Or is it just slide out and slide in a new piece 🤔
Thank you 😊
Very original and solid garage find. DM if interested.
