So, I recently got a 86 tin top, unfortunately under the circumstances I don't feel entirely confident with my purchase. Anyway I'm thinking I'll try to sell it (not sure yet) but there are a few things I would like to take care of to make it more attractive.
First is a oil leak that I still need to track down, I was led to believe its coming from the oil pan gasket. It also has a small coolant leak at the top of the radiator, is there a common failure point on these radiators? Where is a good place to source an inexpensive replacement? Next on cold start up it doesn't kick up to a fast idle, I have to keep my foot on the gas to keep it running and it's rough, smells rich but no smoke. Any ideas on what to check? It starts right up and idles fine when warm. I also notice while accelerating, at lower rpm I feel a slight sputter maybe hesitation, could this just need that tsb venturi? It has a shackle lift, I'm guessing 2", do stock length shocks work with this and what is a common tire size for this size lift? One more question (for now) , where could I find the piece that holds the rear side window on the the hinge, button looking piece?
Thanks.
