Absolutely! Rebuild kits are on rockauto or at your favorite advancedzone store.

Just don't use the new needles and seats, they don't work so well unless you doctor them up. Usually the old
ones are fine anyway.

Anything new?

FC Zach · 05-31-2017, 08:32 AM

Nope, I called a week ago. No news on the ECU. Remaining harnesses (other side of engine harness and the power harness) have been sent to be inspected.

-Day 52,
Not sure how much longer I can handle the 7 not running. . Patience is wearing thin.

-Day 53,
Must start repair of daily. . Wife's Honda Acorn is too boring. Need mode of transportation!

-Day 54,
Weather the storm and drink more beer! ! I got this!

LOL but on a brighter note. . After years of delay and procrastination, I finally titled, registered, and insured the Hercules. This Saturday I will be entering it in its first show. Oh! and I'm on a two week vacation from work starting next Monday so things aren't too bad

Worked on it from the time I rolled out of bed till about three and drove it for about an hour, everything is perfect so far.

Connected and enabled the IACV and with the help of Jacob, he set the idle for me. So as of now it's running great.

It should be fine but I have to restore confidence in it first

Nice, that's awesome news.

Some updates!

As mentioned in a previous post, the Hercules is now registered and insured. I've had to repair the starter and replace the solenoid. I replaced the tires and chain and will need to address a clutch issue soon. I've taken it out a couple times and am very happy with it other than the slipping clutch.

The 7 is back on the road, all is well so far. I'm very happy with the idle now. I've never had an IACV until last week. I'm using an FC BAC adapted to work with my application.

You got the ECU back?

Yep, arrived Mon.

FC Zach · 07-05-2017, 11:18 AM

And on another note. . I found another wiper switch that I repaired but had forgotten about. I installed it and tested, to my surprise I works!

almoststockfc · 07-10-2017, 06:19 AM

You can fix the slipping clutch on mine if you get bored

I'll check it out once I get the Celica put back together. Once that's done (hopefully this week, pending if Coffey finishes up), we'll meet up so I can load it up and bring it to the house. Whatever is needed I can pick up from Jess and knock them out at the same time.

Johnny_K · 07-12-2017, 12:43 PM

Bike and car looking super clean.
