Got the linkage today, but forgot a brake pedal.

brake pedal? just remove the clip and remove the pedal put in a spacer on the shaft to stop any endplay and save the pedal for when you smoke the auto

 

[disciplerocks]

I meant an auto brake pedal. My clutch/brake pedals are going to Jon.

Got the garage all cleaned out today. Having a Focus meet at my place in 2 weeks. It will be an install meet. If anyone wants to come by and hang and maybe have a few, you're welcome.

your too far away for me, or I would, even though I don't have a Focus, or heck i can't even focus on anything at one time.

Posted from the seat of a float boat almost out of gas.

Lol, I should amend that. The people that I invited know who they are.


On a side note, I did get the transmission in the B2 today.

Ok, trans mount modded, starter, and doubler installed. Now its just wiring and a driveshaft to make it movable. Still needs some work to the rear axle before its road worthy.


On a side note. I tested the trailer with 1261 lbs of scrap today. It held up fine. Although the suspension is pretty flexy and caused some rubbing with all the weight in it.

Got everything wired up, ecu swapped, vacuum lines and fluid lines ran today. But I ran into a problem. It won't start. Tried swapping back to the manual ecu and bypassing the NSS again, but no luck.

I think the manual starter is part of my problem. Once its starts to get it turning over good, the starter gear slips and misses the flywheel.

You didn't bend the flexplate with the Tc bolts when you installed it, did you?

[disciplerocks]

Picked up a starter today. I knew there was a difference. After that she fired right up.

Auto vs Manual

Went ahead and took the doubler back off and disassembled it to check it out. All looks good.
