Thanks, that is what I am inclined to do. There was so much crap after 35 years that just cleaning it should make a huge difference!
Thanks for your input.
Resurrecting an old thread....I pulled the head off of my '86 mostly daily driver over the weekend due to a bad compression reading in #1 and #2. It is obviously a blown head gasket and I can see...

Just got two reproduction inner lights for my '86 daily driver. For those of us who have been around a while, we all remember when the lenses would fall off the body of lights. The reproduction...
Congratulations on your new (to you) SVO. I still have some available in Louisville, KY. You'll need to inquire to Meotchh if there is additional shipping for Canada.
I think your problem is that yellow wire to the solenoid... I'll check when I get home how my wiring is landed.

You are correct, they should look familiar...you saw them last year at my place. MN is Larado's SVO and the MO SVO is MSheff's Svo.
Glad you're making progress. I've not done anything to my '84 for a month or so...at least you're working on your SVO.
It's cool you daughter loves riding in it.
Keep going!

Exactly what I thought...except you don't have to clip off the corner and put in a plastic pitcher!
Check out the third and fourth posting on this page: ...
Thought I'd post this as I've seen this item on Rockauto's website for a while now. I finally ordered it (I have two non-SVO vehicles that use factory-recommended 5w-30 oil) and also plan to try it...
I have some harnesses, just not sure what they are from. I can dig and take pictures this weekend if you want.
BTW...glad to see you around again!
I just found out that the 50th anniversary Boss 302 reunion will conflict with Sturgis 2019 (if it remains on Labor Day Weekend). The Boss reunion is in Pittsburgh, PA which is much closer to me...
OK, we're booked at Boulder Canyon Lodge. I've sent a PM to those who are going along with "what to do next" information.
If anybody else wants to go to the Sturgis Mustang Rally this year, send...

Now the dilemma....we just got a 2015 Ecoboost Mustang with Performance Pack and Recarro seats....what to...
I've talked with Ex. Lodging and High Stakes Haven pricing is an error on their website. I'm currently awaiting pricing from Ex. Lodging.
Boulder Canyon and High Stakes Haven are both still available during Sturgis. It looks like we have 9.

When I checked the Executive Lodging website, I had to do a double and triple take on the price; it was SO MUCH lower than any of their other properties. Obviously, it was an error as it appears...
One question for all...two years ago, Bruce and Doug arrived on Monday so they could participate in the autocross school. Should we look at reserving the house a day earlier than we have in the...
Tom,
Would it be you or you and your wife? I'm sure we can figure out a way to make it work...if nothing else, for the awesome blueberry pancakes you make for breakfast! ;)

I've had my car for about 5 years and am still learning about the modifications!
Update on number and price...see above Should we do Boulder Canyon or High Stakes Haven?
And I'll throw this out to the group...what about children under 4? You can PM me with your thoughts if you...
Boulder Canyon and High Stakes Haven are both still available during Sturgis. It looks like we have 10?

Looks like you're close to "The Dragon". I drove that in my '86 SVO a few years ago, fun!
Welcome.
