I'll include a picture in a bit of the panel that says the importation stuff. It is rather difficult to read, so I need to go through and rub some graphite on there so when I take a picture you can read it

This weekend, I tackled the valves, and fiddled with the Bowden cable. I had messed with it before, in order to help with the shifting, so this time I didn't really get any further benefit out of it. Oh well

The vacuum is on a closed system that excludes the central locking system, as there is a leak somewhere that I have yet to find. The way it is set up though, it does not leak.

Are the fuel strainers generally re-usable? I've seen that people have cleaned them and put them back on, but I wasn't sure this would be a good idea..

Still have a rough idle after valve adjust. Still looking into adjusting the IP.


I am fairly positive the injectors are factory, and haven't been removed or replaced yet. I was very very disappointed with the amount of care this car received from the previous owner-- so a detail like this wouldn't surprise me.



EDIT: Will also be looking for a white trunk lid in the central NM area.
