Head Swap 2.8 how long should it take
(Archive: TD&Q - by Capt Fiero, started: 05-18-2006, last post: 2007-03-15 11:33:57 CET)
My educated guess will be one afternoon for tear down and clean up, and one afternoon to put back on and lash and assemble.This is on FieroChicks car. The valve seals are shot, the plenum is leaking. 2 broken off manifold bolts, and I suspect 1 or more burn valves due to driving around for a year...

(Archive: TD&Q - by Capt Fiero, started: 07-05-2005, last post: 2006-02-06 11:46:02 CET)
I have had this topic on the Cadero List for a while, but thought I would give a different crowd a wack at it. The car gets 30+ MPG on the highway, but about 8 mpg in town. The joke is that I can measure fuel in Gallons per hour. As it seems to get the same fuel economy sitting in traffic as it...

We decided that we would go do a bon-fire some place. We ended up with 5 Fiero's and one VW. We drove all the way out to Chilliwack only to find our campsite flooded. So that is when the fun started with me. I went to back up a gravel hill and I saw some smoke coming from my car. What the heck,...
