As previously mentioned DO NOT WELD !!!

Clamp only as welding tends to cause cracking.

The flat part of the T against the bottom of the twist axle and clamped from the top down.

Maybe minigts above has a picture of how he made his??

Hi Todd:

Harry welded his bar to the twist beam, inviting the cracks he experienced.

Ken, 5 Digits "complimented" him on welding the bar rather than clamping.

My thoughts were a race car...

Another thing that intrigues me is a homemade, adjustable, rear anti roil bar.

Some use a length of unequal Tee bar steel beam across the rear twist beam.

It attaches using muffler style clamps...

I've been meaning to get a pic of the control arms but the K is too heavy for me to tip over.

The next time someone comes over I'll try and get some help.

An interesting thing PB Johnny did was...

Thinking I had my Engine all figured out, I decided to go for a short drive.

I let the car idle for about an hour, then drove it around my yard a bit.

What could go wrong?? I giggled like a...

I appreciate the reply Jeff but I had a spare and changed it already.

Once I swapped the SMEC and put the original HEP back in it fired right up.

Next I'll have to look at my alternator and...

Interesting Brian:

It's running now but the alt. belt is squealing loudly on startup.

I'm not yet sure if it's just the belt or something is up with the alternator??

I thought maybe because...

Lots of good info in that thread, I appreciate the link.

Thanks

This evening I changed the SMEC and it started right up.

Ran for a couple of minutes, turned it off, and no restart.

Checked codes and got a 42 and 54 so I swapped the HEP.

Started fine and...

Hey Miles!

So today I have no power at the coil and no test light flashing.

I do have fuel pressure and can hear the fuel pump humming.

Yesterday I thought I had a code 43 but today it looks...

I do, it's still on a K member I removed from a junked 1989 Turbo Caravan.

It's probably easy to duplicate, from memory it's just a welded brace.

Thanks
Randy

Good catch, I've never seen the reinforcement on aftermarket arms either.

Thanks

My Omni has run perfectly since installing the S60 wiring etc back in 1997.

It was nice out day today so I decided to go to the car wash and clean him up.

A few miles from home it bucked a...

If it's the exhaust donut you dislike, Ive been running without one for years.

I have a full 3" donutless downpipe off the swing valve with no issues at all.

That said, your post tempts me to...

I would take this cam and sliders please.

Paypal OK?

Intermittent problems are tough, that's for sure!!

I drove it around again today and it's still working fine.

It only happened to him once or twice before towing it to me.

Bills a terrible...

Tow truck dropped it off so I went for an extensive road test today.

Naturally, the trans worked fine, smoothly slipping in and out of lockup.

The only thing odd was a couple of times shifting...

Another clue, sitting overnight it must unlock as it goes in reverse/drive.

If he slowly drives about a block, it locks and stays locked all day.

I'm an electronics dumdum, just trying to help...

OK, so the lockup function is integral to the solenoid pack.

How about the Transmission Control Module by the left tire?

Does it have any connection to the lockup converter??

Thanks
Randy

My friend Bill has a 2001 Caravan 3.3 automatic with a possible trans. issue.

It starts and runs fine but stalls when he puts it in gear, drive or reverse.

It's acting just like the lockup...

Looks like stock pistons for GLHS and others.

Nice find!

Thanks
Randy

I did it in two parts so it was easy.

Nice work !!

I really like the hard vacuum line to your vacuum block.

This would match my steel brake line Turbo oil feed.

Thanks
