well fit the loudest alarm you can , i then have it set up so it blasts the cabin, get a siren that has a battery back up , you can then use a microwave sensor and point it in to cabin,

Works pretty good for me so far, if it goes off you cant stay incar, and it resets it self

hmm you could do the 1.6 mpi your self, if you khnow how to do a service it not that much harder.

Other wise find the reason your overheating and fix that. the little 1.3 should be good for 120 to 130 , with exttractors and that. But then again , extractos and muffler will cost 400ish , so put it ...

If gear box goes almost right up , but is short by a cm or so of mating with motor, pull box out and check clutch , it could be a mm or so out, causing the hiccup.

Oh lastly make sure you have what you want need before dropping it, as runs to shop 1/2 thru aint pretty covered in grease oil and mud.

yeah dropping the hear box is easiest, other hints are, undo the plugs from gear box to looom, they near firewall. if you dont and drop gear box they break. When lining it up , you can do it by feel. as most clutch align tools are too big, for a zook.
Oh and while you got gear box out change the ...

If the valve you are talking about is on the back of the motor, and not the one on the top near the rocker cover, sure will grab it if possible.

going over it again , looks like something to do with emmision control, cant figure why there is fuel dripping from it, as should be a vacum line, but there is no pressure .


Also looking for manual for the motor, as i only havea serria manual.
