Thank you.
That is a good check list.
Padding on the bulkhead is still there, yes it could be tyres, re the road noise.
Cheapo type, 155 70/13, engine oil is changed with new filter, new fanbelt, some noise from alternator bearings, but I am a bit suspicious about the gearbox, clutch trust rattles on idle and the synchros are past their use by date, so the gearbox bearing might not be good.
I am about to change the engine mounts so we will see what happens there.
And I can't complain too much, it was a $200.00 X students car. The maintenance was non existent.
Oil mist had sprayed all over everything, due to the breather pipe not being in the aircleaner and the oil was rubbish when I got it.
It smoked terribly on start up the first time I drove it. No it does not smoke or fume at all.
So I will just have to work through it.
What I really want is the electric window regulator and motor for the right front door, I can get a new one for $195.00, but that is what I paid for the whole car, just doesn't seem right!
