quote Originally posted by RWDPLZ: Welcome, car looks great! -Very common, most likely bad grounds from mounting brackets to frame, clean and re-test, car has 2 horns -Vacuum bleed cooling system and re-test, replace gauge sensor (84 has 3 temp sensors/senders, thermostat housing is for computer, sticking up out of head is for the gauge, sticking out of head towards driver is for the radiator fan) -My 84 did this on both engines, I'd say normal -Where the heck did you find those? All I can find in the original size is Radial T/A's -Also common, gorilla glue and clamps. DO NOT apply clamps directly to vinyl, they will leave an indentation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-KwhGvnYqY Recommend replacing cigar lighter socket with new, and fixing radiator fan properly. The 84 SE uses a one-year-only 2 speed fan, can convert to later style 1 speed. Definitely buy an 84 Shop Manual if you haven't already.

Thanks for that link!

quote Originally posted by Brivander: Got the new tires installed, feels like a new car. Diagnosed the brake pull and will have the parts Friday 12/3. Frozen rear caliper and also no anti-rattle clips, so I found the rattle at the same time. Also found the passenger CV Boot Torn. I guess I need to find one. UPDATED LIST: To Do List: - Passenger CV Boot Torn. Either a boot or shaft to get depending on prices. - Brake Pull Left under braking -- need to bleed brakes first, then decide what to do. Left rear caliper frozen, calipers pads and pads are on the way. Fixed list: - Interior Lights (dash, overhead, radio) INOP - replaced a blown fuse and rewired the 4th grade science project that was going on behind the fuse panel. - Power Mirrors Cigarette lighter INOP - fixed with wiring repair. - Sticky Door Locks - cleaned and lubed the mechanisms. - New wiper blades installed - Blown front Speakers - replaced with Cerwin Vega 4x10's -- pretty awesome for about $50!!! - Radiator electric fan INOP - hardwired and installed a switch. - Horn - is this a common problem? Yes the fuse is good. Plunger at the wheel was installed wrong. - Idles about 1800rpm until it warms up??? - May be normal, but new to the Fiero. Idles around 1000rpm in neutral once warm. Convinced this is normal after reading on the forums. - Rubber trim around the shifter / center console is popped out on passenger side, looks like multiple attempts have been made to fix it. Gluing Complete. - Cruise Control INOP - Re soldered and wrapped the broken wires in the stalk. Tested Good!. - Engine Light, Code 13, O2 sensor. Advance Auto Parts had anew GM part in stock, installed and problem solved. - *EDIT* - New tires are here, need to be mounted and balanced - Riken Raptor (Michelin) 215/60R14. Mounted / Balanced / Installed. Highest Road force is now 9lbs after force balancing!!! SIDE NOTE - I want to punch people who use fix=a=flat. - *EDIT* - Temp Gauge - Works but reads low ~130 at full temp. I assumed the thermostat was hung open, but boiled it and it starts to open ~190. Seems right. Ignoring for now, I'll know anything above that is a problem.I

Question...

I have an '88 but my 4X10 speakers are blown, too. I have a new stereo system installed with an amp, but I am looking to replace the speakers in the front and rear. The fronts are 4X10's like yours, but the rear are mounted in the window pillars and I think they are 4X6's Maybe Cerwin Vega makes those, too. Do you have a contact I can call or email on these speakers? Thanks...

BTW, your '84 looks sharp. Here's a photo of my '88
