I swear i have looked for it all over the engine bay and I don't see it... Can anybody help?

Posted

ohh, some people i hear, that possibly they broke, and the previous owner never replaced them, the tank should be in plain sight prolly in the drivers side

Posted

Damn ... in plain sight? man then the reservoir is gone. :bawl: ...... :mrgreen:

guess that's that.

isnt the resevoir in a different spot on the older w's? :think:

 

maybe i'm thinkin of a lumina or something... :?

It's right above the battery on my 95

 

I'm starting to forget, but I'm pretty sure on my 88 2.8 it was behind the battery (close to the strut tower) but still easy to see.

 

Heres a good pic (from a 92 Cutty)

yeah, for sure, it's gone. I'm even missing the bar that goes right above the Reservoir. Thanks , even though i look under the hood of literally hundreds of cars a week I still have yet to see under the hood of another 3.4 DOHC W .. most of them are 3.1's 3.3's and 3.8's .. How long was the DOHC made for? I heard from this guy that it was originally a boat racing engine... any truth in that?

ok, u should prolly go to a JY ASAP and get a crossbrace (the bar) and a tank, ull have better handling, and who knows, it could cause alot of flex of the chassis when u turn hard or put alot of strain on the other cross brace, u should just go get one, it obviously braces somthing :lol:

I have heard that about the old Ford/Yamaha SHO V6 SHO motors, but never about the LQ1

the 3.4 was made 91-97, definately replace those crossbrace bars. and washer tank.

Posted

i can't believe that a crossbar is missing...sorta important.

 

did someone replace a battery in your car and then forget to put the things back???

Posted

Aren't there some Regals or something that didn't come with the crossbars? If so I'm guessing it's not gonna kill your car not to have them, but it IS designed to have one..

Posted

The crossbars aren't all too important. Most 88-96 Regals didn't even have them. It just slightly stiffens the chassis during cornering.

Posted

my 89 regal has them and it's a really base model. Is the one on the other side there? If so I'd hurry up and put one in.

The crossbraces don't do to much, it's not like your cars wheels are going to fall off. :lol:
