I just bought a set of wheels from a later T to replace the 390's on my '84. The existing tires are in fair shape if you want something to get...
Sounds like even if I have to change the bolts and add adapters it is worthwhile. What I can't get over is how it will look. I just can't...
Thanks. Mine are the 240/55/390 all around. From all those threads, it appears the later Mondi T wheels will work fine, so I guess I'll pull the...
I've got an '84 Cabrio with the dreaded metric wheels. Though there is plenty of tread left, I do see some signs of dry rot on the tires. Rather...
Unregistered red Mondial cabrio on a trailer headed west out of Willis Sunday, 3/25. Looked as if it had been sitting for awhile. Steve
The rebuilt pump is ready for installation. No problem getting it off....I did just as you said. I just am not sure the need for going deeper to...
It is that size O-ring. It looks like to get to the rear water pump housing I have to remove the air box on the top of the engine to able to get...
The previous owner did the belts less than a year ago. They did not change or service the water pump, and it siezed on me. I wasn't planning on...
Thanks guys. I didn't remove the rear housing, so that explains why I didn't see it. I wasn't even looking up there for it in the diagrams. Now...
I just got my water pump back from Flying Dutchman and am ready to start installing. They included the gasket and also an O-ring. I can't find...
I haven't been through what you've been through, Ted, but I'm anxious for mine. It's on jack stands in the garage awaiting the return of the...
No heated window on the Cabriolet. I don't think there are rear window locks needed on the coupe. Steve
Excuse me if I'm wrong, but isn't the upper left button on the instrument panel a "lockout" switch to keep from actuating the rear window...
Does anyone have a Gates or similar belt number for the water pump belt? All the listings I've found are for the 2 belt system and I use 3 belts....
I'd love to drop the top on my Mondial and go out on some back roads. Unfortunately it's sitting on jack stands in the garage waiting on a water...
After 3 months of having her, my '84 left me on the side of the road. I thought I heard a bearing noise when I started it, but it went away...
Went Saturday to visit a buddy in Tyler, and drove back with the top down yesterday. Great drive! Steve
The tuner cleaner should be OK. It has a little lube in it versus a straight electrical cleaner, but we're not needing hospital-grade clean here....
Just reporting what I have found after working on ignition locks from many different manufacturers for a lot of years. Admittedly an ignition...
As a licensed locksmith, I'll suggest that you DO NOT use graphite. It will combine with the metal fragments, moisture, and dirt to form a paste...
