Ok, I realize this is not rocket science but there are some tricks and advice I can share and I haven't found a complete guide to step people through this. It is not hard, but takes a bit of patience to do the job cleanly and safely as you are taping into electrical wires and adding new vacuum line....

Always use some kind of lube when steel threads into aluminum or you will get galling. Oil is better than nothing but will likely dry up or get burnt off. Invest in anti seize and use on all service bolts and you will save yourself lots of headaches. It works by leaving small pieces of nickel or cop...

Maybe get that battery on a charger for a bit and check alternator output ? I’ve never seen amp watts used, intere...

I think it was RSPI who once put his camera inside the glove box to see if light went out. A forum search show several instances of the door not making contact with switch. I did that last year when I noticed the cell voltage would drop after siting but it passed the test. I think the switch is int...

I’m in the same boat, original hose and no desire/will to tackle it. They will probably be seized to hell. Yes you are correct there is a proportioning valve.
