Tech Sessions! Ideas?

Well, as usual we're going to have some tech sessions this year.

Here are the ones I will be giving:

1. Hood Strut Install on Randy's car.
2. CD Player Install on Rosie's car.

Would anyone else like to give a tech session?

Mike

I think anyone who needs something done should post what they want done, and anyone who knows how to and is willing can reply. I am willing to help out with anything that I have done myself.

Not that I plan on doing anything to it but anyone who wanted to see what the back half of an SVX looks like with NO interior can check out my car.

Thumbs up

I'd like to demonstrate the disassembly & reassembly of the torque converter. Anyone willing to donate their car, tools & perhaps some decent cognac to the project please let me know.

I have a torque converter I could bring in case you are serious

I am bringing along front rotors, pads, and a caliper seal kit. I was going to do the brakes before I go, but I won't have time, so I might as well make a tech session out of it!

Of course I'm serious. In fact if you just show me where that thingie is bolted, I'll have it off in a jiffy. Please bring sledge & crowbar.

Well, I need my Center console screwed back down.. When we did the 5 MT swap we lost the screws... Just gets on my nerves having the thing move around if someone puts thier arm on it..

And here I thought it was a more exciting story like the console mounts were broke in the heat of passion...

I know a few people on this baord that had that repair...

I restrain myself from any "sexual activity" in the SVX... Tried it once and there was no room what-so ever... It is pretty bad when ya are getting your businuess on in the back and suddenly you get the wierdest looking face and ya ball up in pain of a CRAMP... Yea it really sucked... When ya are 6'1" it's alittle hard to get a proper anble in that car

In actuallity though I remember before this happened I told her to watch out for the seats and to keep her feet off the seats... What can I say, my car somes first...

How bout a good "HOW - TO" on Fixing rattly Heatsheilds... I know it sounds like a simple solution but the one that rattles on my car is the one over the drivers side Primary CAT... I don't think it would be that wise to remove it...
