Yes- and I remember doing my ATF flush on the wagon and getting the car level off the ground was strongly encouraged. I’m all about using wood that I got laying about - but when I built stilts for the Toyota van - I was shocked at how unlevel it was - but that thing is just gonna sit there for a bit while I build courage to continue, so it’s not too critical.
Check your vacuum line connections?She was parked way before, but February 20, 2023 I had a week off work, and so I started the timing belt. Which, if you remember the bits of updates, morphed into a lot of things. Clutch, CV boots, a arms, tie rod and ball joints, wheel bearings, radio upgrade, in tank fuel pump.
Finally moved her out. Seems to be a little low on power, and the girlfriend thinks it's louder. I probably broke the flax pipe but it does seem loud. If injection is too advanced will it idle loud?
The tuner did the hammer mod, 6.8 at idle any good? Seems the numbers are in minimum setting. Does smoke a lot at low rpm, new stock turbo.
Says if ition is advanced but in spec. Would you change it? I know temp is low, but after warming it up for the graph, my laptop died
Yes, likely. When I took the engine out marked everything with color paint. Then I pressure washed things, changed out parts. So I had to use a diagram to put things back together and I'm pretty sure it was different than how I had it before.
As long as the jack isn't deathly old it's probably fine. I mean I can't even count the number of hours I have spent under cars. Just me and the widow maker hating on whatever vehicle for being such a royal piece of trash. I don't recommend it but it can't be that unsafe.... Right? lol. I've even lifted the whole end of cars a time or two.... They holdIs the front end being held up solely by that hydraulic jack? In which case...yikes!
There's no way I'd let anyone crawl under a car being held up by only a hydraulic seal.
. I barely even climbed under there when I did that though.
If the intake was dirty and you cleaned it out that will make it louder too.She was parked way before, but February 20, 2023 I had a week off work, and so I started the timing belt.

NEISS estimated that 4,822 people in the U.S. receive hospital emergency treatment in a single year for jack failure injuries.As long as the jack isn't deathly old it's probably fine.

U.S. data on the incidence of jack failure injury accidents nationwide | DENENA | POINTS
Alarmed by a recent fatal jack collapse incident in our city, our Houston jack failure accident lawyers decided to take a look at data from across the country. The National Center for Statistics and Analysis, part of the U.S. NHTSA, complied detailed data on jack failure accidents in a special...
That data includes jackstand failures - I was surprised by the number of recalls. Maybe 6×6 is the safer way to go even though they inevitably get in the way.4,821 people who did it incorrectly
In all seriousness, ya. Its amazing how much skimping companies can get away with on jackstands. Just watch project farms video. Another part of that is incorrect use, placement, and setting up of the jackstand. People are great at hurting themselves these days. Sometimes I think all some people can see is the paycheck they might receive if they get hurt. All these lawsuits are making people lazy about their safety.
these engines really run much better when you don't run over-advanced... however, whether what you do in the graph here makes much of a difference depends on what is loaded in the ecu and your fueling hardware. too much advance leads to low end torque, most noticeably.She was parked way before, but February 20, 2023 I had a week off work, and so I started the timing belt.

Darwin awards contenders.
Is the number below the graph important? Does over advance help cold start?

I’m officially a Golfer
As I understand it, between the two limit lines, and when running a stock tune, there is adjustment internally to hit what ever timing is requested. Go with some other tune, with a non-stock advance table/matrix and then those two limits are close to meaningless.
Ok, good to know. Thanks! Coolant hoses are good so far. Put new lines on the injector returns and they still leak. Which is weird because it was a decently tight fit. So now I'm like what the heck?? do I need to use 2.5mm hose? Such a dumb issue.
2 of them. Cylinder 1 and 2. I didn't switch the other ones because they didn't leak after the first time I put new tube on.

Couldn't refuse, wagons have gone out of my price range
It's so insane. I can't believe people are asking as much as they are for them. I only got my wagon (Rebelle) for a good deal because it was going to the auction block and I offered a little over the trade in value. Even more unbelievable is what some beetles are selling for around here. I have seen a couple sell near the $3k range, with plenty of rust, dents, and no maintenance history.
