Picked these up for $100 today. I'm going to go at them with some leather conditioner tomorrow.

Damn just broke my drivers seat today. Must be all those Safeway deli sandwiches. But did get oil line in today and cleaned up the evaporator somewhat. Very little debris and almost no clogging at all. My big hands make it difficult to get in there to with the way my air box is designed.reacn in blower hole go up slightly then down a chute to the left get to evaporator. Most of it unreachable but borosope showed it was clear thru out except the the very outer perimeter of the core. That flushed out with water tho.

Cool deal man


Looked at mine sitting in the garage. Then started it up once.

Sounds like me. Looked at mine took some trash out of it, started it and wished I could drive it. Can't drive it with the leaking radiator and I won't have the money for another month. Not just the radiator but for the water pump, fan clutch, heater core and other stuff. Those things aren't bad just want to replace them now so I don't have to mess with the cooling system again for years.

"if it aint broke dont fix it"? i think "If it aint broke it will soon" especially on a 16+ year old vehicle with the original parts

It will break when it is ready too. Don't just throw money at it. Just because you need a rad does not mean you will soon need a new pump as well.

So when you say "HYDRAULIC" arm you talking the handle used for pumping or or the component the handle goes into to pump the piston or the arm that makes contact with the vehicle? Just want to be clear.

The component that pumps the piston. The seals are toast on it so really preffer to just get another drop it in and have it work again but dont know if they are interchangable

Not likely. Just replace the jack when you can or take it apart and see if you can get replacement matching seals locally at a hydraulic shop if possible.
