IT LIVES ! ! !
Well I installed a new alternator cable, spent a couple hours washing and
vacuming (it's been sitting under a tree for almost a year). Anyway here are
some pictures.

It's got Corado rims on it now, the tire on one of the rims is messed up,
and is missing another rim on one side (the old rim got bend pretty bad). I
think I got a guy with a single Corado rim that'll just give it to me, but
if anyone has one around the seattle or portland area gimmie a buzz.
Anyway more questions . .
1) The previous owner cut out the airbox and installed a K+N air filter, he
said something about being able to clean these, and also that they are
pretty much self cleaning. So how do I clean them?
2) What's the best oil to put in these cars? I don't have a manual (Going to
pick up a bently sometime), could someone tell me how many quarts and what
weight oil I need. I'm in seattle so it never get's above 85 degrees
outside.
3)Ok the big black hose comming out of the top of the throttle body and
going to the engine (sorry I don't know the real name). If you are looking
at it from the front of the car there are 3 little hoses comming out of the
front of it. The hose on the right is connected to the big hose with a 3 way
90 degree fitting. But there is only one little hose going to the fitting,
so the other inlet/outlet is just left open. What is supose to be there, if
anything? I couldn't find any loose hoses around that area. This is
causing a vacum leak correct?
4)Does the rear wiper wipe when ever the front wipers do? I can't get the
rear wiper to move. With my 280zxt (sniff sniff) there was a seperate button
for the rear wiper. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't just not pushing the
right button.
5)Any suggestions for a good manual to get? Someone earlier suggested
Bentley. Just curious if anybody had any other sugestions.
anyway that's enough for now.
