Prospeeder Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 It's right above the battery on my 95 Â 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. Â Heres a good pic (from a 92 Cutty) Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospeeder Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I heard from this guy that it was originally a boat racing engine... any truth in that? Â Â I have heard that about the old Ford/Yamaha SHO V6 SHO motors, but never about the LQ1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 the 3.4 was made 91-97, definately replace those crossbrace bars. and washer tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SigEpCutlass Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 i can't believe that a crossbar is missing...sorta important. Â did someone replace a battery in your car and then forget to put the things back??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 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.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaloutsider Posted July 30, 2005 Report Share Posted July 30, 2005 The crossbars aren't all too important. Most 88-96 Regals didn't even have them. It just slightly stiffens the chassis during cornering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckethead Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 The crossbraces don't do to much, it's not like your cars wheels are going to fall off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
