1997 850 NA Rear Shock Bolt

Hello Everyone,

I was replacing the rear shocks on my NA 850 and stupidly I did not realize that there was a cap to cover up the threads at the end of the bolt. I did spray the bolt, but it did not get to those threads because the cap was still on. Anyway, the result was the bolt breaking in half ...

Vacuum Line Next to Alternator 1997 850

Hello,

I posted before about this, but wanted to see if I can get any more feedback. I was in the process of replacing my alternator when I found the vacuum line next to my alternator melted in two. I assumed this was the reason why my check engine light was on for fuel mixture too rich. I bought a ...

Re: 1997 850 Alternator/Radio Question

Will connecting it to the vacuum tree provide the same action that the other end of the vacuum line had? That seems like my only option right now as I can't for the life of me find where the other end of the line goes. Luckily, the existing vacuum line will reach the vacuum tree from the side of the ...

Re: 1997 850 Alternator/Radio Question

So after removing my alternator, I found the reason why my check engine light has been on for years. I had a fuel mixture too rich code. I found that the vacuum tube that goes into the side of the engine near the alternator was melted in half. The only problem is I don't know where the other end ...

Re: 1997 850 Alternator/Radio Question

well, I'd like to fix my radio, but I just can't find the amplifier. I found on another website that the base model doesn't have an amplifier. Is this true? There seems to be very little information on the subject

Re: 1997 850 Alternator/Radio Question

Are you sure for a 97 base 850? I have 8 speakers so it would make sense that there is one, but there just isn't one there. I took it all apart and looked behind the tubes. The wires from the receiver seem to go up and behind the the dash. There is an 'amp' jack on the receiver that didn't have ...

1997 850 Alternator/Radio Question

Hello,

My car battery has been dying for a while now and finally was diagnosed by a third mechanic who had a high-tec testing machine (Goodyear) that it was the alternator. Apparently it has bad contacts. So my question is about the radio in my car. It has 8 speakers and 2 of them work. Could this ...
