Re: Cylinder Head Replacement

Kudos to Clearwater, as well. I recently did the exact same thing as above, and it went pretty well. So far, so good.....

Re: question for Ozark Lee or MiJ about scan tool

I used this one.....https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001MT0XPK/ref=ox_ya_oh_product I had a laptop laying around and figured I could use it for something other than surfing, so I decided to go this route. It's a little more expensive than a handheld scanner, but provides more data. I can also get ...

Back on the road again......well, sorta.

I finally got my 96 GLT on the road, again.....after painstakingly putting it all back together. But, I have a few problems and want to find out if they may be inter-related. First of all, my heat doesn't work. I get the dreaded blinking lights and no forced air of any kind. I know that my A/C evapo...

Re: Realigning the cam gears.....

Already got the Haynes manual, but I haven't gotten that far into it....due to being out of town. I've also got the IPD alignment tool, so I'm thinking that I should be pretty much set, right?

Realigning the cam gears.....

Just got the new cylinder head in from Cylinder-Heads.com(btw.....great people to deal with) and my initial question before I attempt to get this beast back on the road is: Is there a certain position that the gears should be bolted in? Is there an alignment mark on the new camshaft that aligns with...

Exhaust Manifold

Getting ready to put a new head on my GLT, because of a timing-belt problem......G******nit :twisted: My question is about the exhaust manifold and the expansion joint.....the mesh has come apart from the bottom. Is this thing toast? I know they are replaceable in most cars.....but this one looks to...

Re: question for Ozark Lee or MiJ about scan tool

My question about these cheap scanners is: will they retrieve the correct mileage from the car?

Re: Water Pump and Timing Belt

Update: A buddy of mine had a leak-down tester and we used it to evaluate each cylinder. 4 out of 5 were bad, so I guess it's worse than I thought. I think I'm just going to go with the remanufactured head and be done with it. Still will remain a major learning experience, even if it is the school o...
