Just picked this up today, ‘93. Unmolested one owner Carolina car. Been parked a long time. Timing belt failure.

To each their own. It’s how I was taught and it continues to make sense. Rattle clips sometimes just rattle themselves. Plus, it cuts down on corrosion, something we can always use less of around here. Although I should be more clear. I do not put grease on the back of the pads, but rather on the top of the caliper piston and caliper end where the pads sit.

Got this thing torn down today and cleaned up. Ordered some parts. I may have it running later this week. LQ1 parts are all closeout priced on rock auto, the timing belt was only $2.14!

Well finally got around to changing the receiver drier and the high pressure service fitting and recharging the AC system, and while I was doing that I had to Tinker with the fans a little bit because one had a bad connection on the passenger side and the fuse was blown for fan 3 so once I replace the fuse and got the fans working for some reason I looked over at the radiator that I pulled out of the Grand Prix GTP and I looked at the fans and they look like they were a lot more efficient than the stock cooling fans on the Lumina because they had a lot more shrouded area. So I pulled the fan shroud off of the radiator and set out to installing it in the Lumina and sure enough I had to remove both dog bones and the one radiator support mount along with the airbox once I did that the fans dropped in like they were made for the Lumina and they work like a champ. AC works way better sitting at a stoplight now in traffic.

You shut your whore mouth when men are talking!

Needs more L67.
