I replaced my seals with the Unobtainium Xring variety probably ten years ago. No leaks but it took about 500 miles for them to loosen up.
My experience: About 12 years ago my 328 would momentarily lose power (hiccup just once) while driving. Engine would seem normal after that...
When mine would not spin the engine to start it, I would hear a slight whining noise. But I did not know whether it was the starter motor turning...
I assumed there is a coil inside the starter. That what appears on the wiring diagram. [ATTACH]
That's good news. Thank you. I'll forget about the non-problem.
I've been working on my '87 328GTS because the starter quit working. Turned out it was the large connector located under the car about 2 feet...
The metal ones will allow more heat to exit from the internals. Plastic is a poor thermal conductor. Metal is a good conductor. Heat must pass...
I replaced my seals about 8 years ago. I was unable to get the dipstick off - simply not strong enough to loosen the upper hex from lower hex. I...
61931100/A I think the A stands for aggravation.
I have one last comment regarding the replacement switch. In addition to the capillary tube length and the switch inability to completely shut...
The bean counters are alive and well. The new switch with its shorter capillary tube is more difficult to install. The original one had two 4...
Finally got it back together properly.
I have replaced the temperature control on my '87 328 GTS, and the AC is working again. All the other switches operate what they should operate....
The new switch capillary tube is 2 feet shorter than the old one but will work. I am winding the coil around a drill bit shank. Eight coils done...
Decided the best way to do it is to remove the grommet where capillary passes into the compartment. The hole is large enough for the old coil to...
I need some advice regarding the rolling up of the capillary tube. Below is a picture of the original capillary tube with the retention clip...
Once again Steve, thanks for the help. Getting the top part of the console off was interesting. The 4 switches at the rear of the console top...
The temperature control switch is bad. Jumping the two leads at the temperature control switch engages the AC clutch when the blower switch is on...
I'll remove the switch and check it out as you indicate.
I assume you mean terminals, 85 and 87, the two ground terminals. I'm referring to the numbering on the relay.
