http://ricklord.com/frankenformula Documents the progress of my 88 Fiero Formula project Wed, 03 Jan 2007 15:34:56 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en It's been a while but it finally runs. Turns out it wasn't the injectors, it was a bad fuel pump. What a PITA job that is. They really don't make it easy to replace but I got it done. I have to thank my wife. She helped out a bit ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=77 I've been trying real hard to get the car driveable. It's not going so well. I put the steering wheel back in and was going to take it for a spin around the block but it wouldn't start. I've replaced the fuel filter, added some fresh gas and checked for ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=76 I finally have tail lights! I mentioned before I was going to get a new tail light harness. Well I got it, tested it out and it wouldn't work. Turns out I was a a dumbass. Who new? So last night I ripped out the old hacked up one and ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=75 I forgot to mention this before. We were going to upholster the lower dash, like I said in the last post. Well, we were all set to do it when we noticed a funny mark on the vinyl. We uhfolded it and they were all over! The pen marks we ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=74 The major delay in me getting my interior complete has been the gauge wiring and the vent hoses. The gauges weren't too difficult for the most part but at this time the tachometer and oil pressure gauges don't work. I suspect the new oil pressure sender I installed is bad ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=73 I know, it's been too long since I've posted here. I've been distracted with other projects. But you aren't here to hear excuses. Yesterday I started working on the tail lights. I had been trying to install lamborghini tail lights. I had the electical all figured out, but I had been ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=72 It has been a really long time since I've posted here. I haven't really accomplished anything worth posting. Every now and then I get motivated to tinker with it but haven't accomplished much. I did finally finish wiring the main gauge pod, but nothing works. Well, the temp gauge works ... http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=71 I never did fix the image after my last post. I finally did it today, but now I'm not sure I like it. I will probably change it later. http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=70 I really have to do something about that stupid coffee cup image at the top of the page. I think maybe I'll work on that today. http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=69 I finally got the gauge pod and computer cover upholstered. They are not perfect but considering it was my first time I don't think it's too bad. Here's a few pics. http://ricklord.com/frankenformula/?p=68
