Hello,
Identified the rotted section of 1-1/4" feedpipe. I cut out the rotted
section - about 12" of pipe from 2" beyond the engine compartment
forward - clamped on the new piece of hose, started it up & it leaked
like a sieve from the short 4" section that was left in the engine
compartment. A short trip to my father-in-laws produced a piece of
pipe 1-1/4" in diameter and 6" long - perfect! Clamped it in place,
started it up...viola! no leaks. Drove it 4 miles to the in-laws, had
supper, then drove it home in the dark and rain.
When I had the wipers going I turned on the rear heater & it blew the
fuse. Lost my wipers so I pulled over & replaced the fuse. It had an 8
in it. I remember there being higher amperage fuses, so I'll need to
get some. Does anyone know off-hand what amp fuse should be in the
wiper/blower fuse holder? I have the owners manual, well, the cover
actually. The mice ate out the whole inside leaving just the staples.
Is it possible to get a new/used owners manual for an '84 GL? Does
anyone have it scanned so that I might have a copy with which to
figure some things out? What I really need are the fuse & light bulb
charts. I still haven't purchased a Bentley's, but will be doing so
soon.
Also, are the valve clearences set hot and still at .006"
Thanks for the info.
Later,
Michael
