all the wiring looks good on this harness. it didnt have any openings in the wire and it wasnt brittle anywhere. i guess ill just remove the white and yellow wire, wrap electrical tape over all the wiring and re-loom it.

Brush cleaner, Naphta, or anything but rubbing alcohol. Rubbing alcohol is about as strong as water. Lol

Or wire wheel it....

Or brake cleaner

Anyone got a Grant/5 bolt steering wheel adapter for an Ef sitting around? I got a free grant 5 bolt wheel for our Lemons car, but don't want to pay full price for an adapter

Sand it off and polish the base of the distributor while you're at it...

it looks like the guy that had the car before me cut off the rubber lips that sit around the flanges on the valve cover, why he would do such a thing i have no idea but the wires are good so i will just deal with it until i get new spark plug wires

is anyone on here slammed and running a 2.5" exhaust?? i have cut and shortened my hangers both on the exhaust itself and on the car and have ditched my stock rubber mounts in favor of zip ties that will hold the hangers so close together that they are all touching, and my exhaust is damn near pressed against the underside of the car for the full length of it and is up against it in some spots, but it still hangs down to low and drags, this is preventing me from going any lower and frankly if i have to dive this life guard tower around much longer like this i will loose my mind or at the very least get a nose bleed...........help, because I'm about to just start cutting things

My EF gives me a reason to actually enjoy random trips to the store for the wife. It's good to get it out of the garage every once in a while, even if it's just for a few miles.
