What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[88festivasam]

Found a axle seal is leaking. Added 1.5 quarts of trans fluid...

Drove the crap out of it on some twisty roads yesterday.
Ran like it was on rails

Sooo my car died an hour and a half from my house, theres some sort of alignment issue with the serpentine belt so it ate 3-4 belts to get home. Heck on the way back we replaced the stock BP alt with a KLDE one. Heres my friend hammering inside the wheelwell to get clearance for the alt throughbolt.

Resurrected little blue car for Jiminy Cricket. New master cylinder, put the axle that had popped out somehow back in, new rotor and cap, new trans fluid.

Running around outside the asylum again with my tappy talky appy

I'm still cleaning up the "new" 91 under the hood, and detailing a few parts with some chrome paint-

I knocked a fusible link loose and took a bit wondering why it wasn't firing- relieved it was only that

silencer and canister both gone now and lines plugged- runs great-

found the sending unit under the rear carpet- thinking it might be that when it was down- may replace eventually anyway-
got new cap, rotor wires and gas filter and air filter ready- new plugs are in

evaluating tire/wheel situation
have to check heater blower
and theres a noisy exhaust leak somewhere underneath I haven't been able to check yet

summer in florida and I'm HOT and TIRED!

Did a tune up and fuel filter on my "new" white 88 carby

wow lots of festy's got love today, i had a rather sweet junk yard score today, found one 20 miles from my house at a little scrap yard, i got both door panels (with map pockets....bonus), both arm rests, the little square trim around door lock, dome light cover, rear view and passenger side mirrors, rear ash tray, marker light lens covers, trim around stereo n climate controls, and two chrome ford center caps all for a grand total of 30 bucks, got everything cleaned and installed

It looks like the retaining clip for the piston seal isn't seated properly. I also believe that the the little cotter pins holding the brake pad pins should be on the other side of the brake pad; that way the big pin will be all the way in and lot sticking out 1/4"

Lol that's where the pin was when I pulled it out. Makes sence though.

That was the only way I could put the seal that made sence. Do you have a photo of one seated properly. These were missing that part when I got them.

Edit. Unless you mean how the seal slips under the retaining clip. In that case I have already fixed that.

Motivated myself with photos of new calipers and new wheels next to the car. Then iwashed and waxed it.

Screwed on my new capacitor. It will eliminate any radio interference caused by the firing of the distributor.

Oddball size I guess. Oh well. I have Bridgestone coming.
