Given that not three weeks ago I had to dig out a set of spark plugs on a customers Pontiac that had been encased, not sealed but ENCASED in RTV, this becomes all the more hilarious.
First post updated! Ya'll will have to make due with the first picture I took since my absurdly small garage doesnt give me room to take a decent picture.
Finally got my 82 Malibu woody running, went to Oriellys for some more coolant after the radiator/ waterpump replacement. I got offered by three people in there for it. :D
Makes ya feel good man.
It’s an NOS R12 compressor, but the system has 134a fittings on it so I assume it’s just had the heads swapped out on the fill/drain ports. I’ll have a look for these other bolts tonight.
Been trying to put a new water pump on my 82 Malibu wagon(305, AC/ powersteering), but I cannot get the AC Compressor to budge on its adjustment rails to remove the belt. Im unsure if the power steering pump below it needs to move first but its very hard to tell as there doesnt feel to be any...
