Got myself another one, need some parts

**Knightmayre** · 2nd May 2016, 09:39 AM

G'day everyone

I haven't been on here for almost 6 years (!) and had to make a new username as I couldn't remember my email address I used to sign up!

Anyway, I've now bought another '87 which needs some bits so I would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.

I need a fuel pump, drivers door upper hinge and some idiot lights aren't working in the binnacle and in the auxiliary switch panel too.
I also need the rear passenger (drivers side) door handle as the PO said it was dicky and it's taped up haha

Tacho doesn't work, it bounces around when starting but that's it.
Turn signals are intermittent but I've not had time to check that out.
Driving lamps (which are still in one piece!) don't work but I can always remove the front spoiler to get a RWC.

Can't get it in LO range, but I've not really tried that out yet as I only picked her up yesterday.

There was a member on here (bacicat200) who had a nice RRC, don't know if he's still around because I lost touch with him.
There was another member in Sunbury too but again I can't remember the user name

Thanks for reading

Is good to be back in a REAL car!

Cheers
Dave

Have ordered a new pump assembly from a 4wd place listing on eBay so that will be one job over... at least I can get it replaced in about 10 minutes now that I'm used to it

I also forgot to mention that there is a plastic thingie at he back of the fuel rail on the drivers side with a vac line going to it which is in several pieces but it isn't wired up - what is that for? I'm going to plug up the vac line with a bolt and see how she goes.

Cheers
Dave

Bacicat's new username on the forum is Homestar. We've tried getting rid of him but he won't go away!

Awesome! He doesn't live far away from me, I'll get in touch with him today. Thanks for that!

Found your old username. I've sent you a PM for confirmation. If you want to re-use it, I can fix that up and get this thread under your old name

With friends like you, who needs enemies...

**p38arover** · 2nd May 2016, 09:15 PM

Dave, note your change of username. Your email address has also been updated.

**Knightmayre** · 2nd May 2016, 10:18 PM

Thanks for that Ron, It's all good now.

I'll see what I can do

I've got low ratio working now, which is nice.
I also fixed the problem with the rear taillights which were really dim, turns out the PO put 24v bulbs in her hahaha.

Still need front drivers upper door hinge, rear drivers side passenger door handle (maybe), indicator relay, struts for the back tailgate.

Cheers
Dave
