B2 major service

Post by The Crooner »

I bought this recently - theres more pictures in the rides section.

Its a 1984 GL5 hatchback 102k miles.

I've been shopping for bits and the following will happen over the next few days:

new radiator and mounting bushes, thermostat and water pump, new coolant

cam belt

air filter

oil filter, semi-synthetic engine and gear oil

replace brake and power steering fluid

new alternator and power steering belts

new spark plugs

strip and repaint timing belt cover, radiator steady bar and radiator fan shroud

refurbish cardboard radiator covers/shroud

I will post up pictures of the cam belt change and the engine bay after the work.

Will then move onto the fuel and FI, make it start better and have co2 and idle set.

B2 bits wanted:


Radiator bottom hose. Front seat, good condition, blue velour, or seat upholstery to repair flat, hard seat. Expansion tank with no leaks around level sensor. Rear tailgate struts, rear luggage cover lift straps, have one but no fittings at all. Luggage area side carpets in blue (so I can mount some speakers). Decent 4" x 6" speakers.
