Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
So this afternoon @nickwheeler popped in for a few hours to chat and drop off the RivNut tool so that I can refit the passenger screen wiper.
We chatted about a load of stuff, including the permutations of building “Le Lunatic” https://forum.retro-rides.org/thread...v-meet-lunatic Back to the Rezin Rockit running like poo, it was due a service at some point before or after MOT. Maybe all the turning it on and off, not running for 4 years at least and stale fuel all came together to create this little mess……. . https://youtu.be/Qta7tc2krjA So I went down to Euro Carparts to fetch a few basic bits after inspecting the airfilter and trying to find just where the oil filter lives. Did you think it was easy ? Nope, but YouTube university showed me,,small, black, hidden in the most awkward space. Found it. ![]() Needs a special tool, on an extension it seems to get it unstuck. Would be interesting to know when last, if ever this was changed. ![]() Air filter has certainly seen better day as well. Camera does not quite capture just how grubby and filled with muck it is. ![]() ![]() So,Ł63.00 later. Oil, filters, spark plugs and an oil drain plug And as advised by @Kevins and @mk2cossie suggested, sparkplug leads could be degenerated and part of the problem. ![]() Here’s to hoping that it works out on the new parts. Fingers crossed.
