Hard to make your point >otherwise. Without taking sides on this issue at all I have to agree with the part of Tim's message that I just posted. I'm sick and tired of reading people's rants and such where they misspell words, or use them completely wrong! One particular pet peeve is lose vs. loose. You did not loose to the car running 9 sec. quarter miles, you LOST, or lose to them! (well I do anyway :) If you loose to them, then you must've had some major wheelspin! I agree with Tim, the effectiveness of the post is greatly reduced when there are major grammatical/spelling errors. Actually I can let one or two pass, but once you start getting them more frequently I start laughing and wondering exactly what makes you any better than the people you are complaining about ... Sorry guys, had to get it off my chest.

Any help would > be highly appreciated. '96 was an early OBD-II vehicle and they often trip the light for what we might consider normal operation. Once the system sees a 'non-emission' threatining condition it'll turn the light off. I'd suggest contacting the dealer first about it as I *think* I recall a TSB concerning what you describe where the computer gets reprogrammed to eliminate the light. What's happening is the extra load from the boat requires more fuel to pull it, but the O2 keeps seeing all that fuel and says "Too much".. turns on the light.

He said he made an adjustable actuating rod to the master cylinder. He indicated that it cleared it right up. I can dig up and forward that post to you if you want. The funny thing is, I have a 86 250 that had a similar problem. The clutch would release, but the pedal would be real close to the floor. Real close. My master cylinder had a adjustable rod, but adjusting it just preloaded the throwout bearing against the pressure plate. I didn't like that, so I bit the bullet this past weekend, and put in a new clutch, pp, throw out bearing, and pilot. The clutch now works fine. Now a question back at you. My slave cylinder has enough residual pressure to keep the throw out bearing just resting on the fingers of the pressure plate. It turns with with the motor. Is this normal on a hydralic clutch?? The books I have read say no free play on a hydralic clutch but is the bearing supposed to turn all of the time??? I don't have much experience with these hydralic things, as you can tell. If anybody knows for sure, feel free to come on in. OK, back to your question, I would guess the hydralics for the 87, flywheel from a mid 70's 460 PU, clutch and pp depending on the trans splines and flywheel size. For example, 11" 10 spline on a 15/16 shaft. If you open it up, you might have better luck at a truck parts house than your normal car parts place. They can probably match it up if you carry it in and lay it on their counter. By the way, the PTO should not affect clutch operation. From your posts this week, all I can say is to have a good day tomorrow and a good weekend.
