    Battery rolled over in trunk. Shorted out. New battery. No power. Where to start?

    “User error” it’s a normal stainless box. The shop that had my car put a block of wood in the box instead of dropping the bolts in. I never thought to look to make sure it was installed correctly.

    Battery rolled over in trunk. Shorted out. New battery. No power. Where to start?

    It was sitting in battery acid and as you can imagine battery acid and cooler don’t play well.

    For those with a stripped fuel hat bolt. What is the best fix?

    I’m going to try the heli coil first if that doesn’t work I’m sure JB weld and a bolt would be enough force. If not I guess I’ll have to order a new tank.

    For those with a stripped fuel hat bolt. What is the best fix?

    Cool kit but I dont Think it will work in this situation the threads aren’t in the actual tank. The ring is riveted to the tank

    For those with a stripped fuel hat bolt. What is the best fix?

    Sounds like a royal PITA. I may try a stainless course thread metal screw and see it it seals. I want to say the threads on the inner ring are the punch through kind. Not a lot of meat to rethread. Gonna be annoyed if I have to pull a fuel tank from a junkyard for one thread..

    For those with a stripped fuel hat bolt. What is the best fix?

    I want to yes. It’s been years since I opened one up. I couldn't open this one up yet bc of the 10 gallons of gas in it. I’m going to assume it only leaks when it’s completely full.

    For those with a stripped fuel hat bolt. What is the best fix?

    Okay guys apparently the shop and put my car back together stripped one of the bolts on my fuel hat. I didn't find this out until I filled the tank last night. I dropped the tank and found it’s leaking around the hat. Grabbed the 1/4 ratchet and low and behold one is 100% stripped. So what’s...

    Battery rolled over in trunk. Shorted out. New battery. No power. Where to start?

    The battery rolled over in the trunk. Long story short I had a trunk full of battery acid and the battery was completely shorted out/dead. I replaced it with a Optima 78 series with the vent ports. The issue I’m having is I have no power inside the car although with the key In the ignition I...

    Trunk lid won't stay closed please help ‍♂️

    The latch adjustment did the trick!! Thank you. I’m not sure why it would stop latching now after 20 years.

    Trunk lid won't stay closed please help ‍♂️

    Heh guys as stated my trunk won't stay closed after getting it back from the shop. I can take a screwdriver and try to lock it closed but it releases. It's like the latch is not locking. Anyone have any idea how these lock up? I'm sure it's something simple. I'd rather not replace the whole...

    Short pull last night then no power to the wheels… no pop no crack nothing. Where do I start?

    I got all of my parts in just to realize the input shaft doesn’t come with a bearing. Two questions. First. How do you install an input shaft bearing? I’ve searched the web and can’t find much info. Is it so simple there are no write ups? I have Access to a press but I’m not sure what ever...

    Short pull last night then no power to the wheels… no pop no crack nothing. Where do I start?

    The 10 spline is officially toast! It’s got a new spec clutch. Can I just replace the clutch plate? If so what clutch do you guys recommend for a 600hp car? If not I’ve got to figure out what clutch this is and sell it with less than 1000 miles on it…
