hey brother I have been working on the same issue - swapper my elec and dude it worked - bad after market pump design - mine was the same way and you saved us - thank you for the video brother I would have never thought - but 2 pumps in a row were wired wrong - thanks again - we got car with new A/M pump, never saw factory pump, and I tell you - all were wired wrong - ours were world pac and o'reillys all were wrong
sorry your actual problem is the hoses they use develope pin holes, at first taking longer to crank motor to start and later failure to start. like its out of gas. harley guys know about this.
@@authenticrebuilds9247 Thanks... I ended up doing the same with mine last night. The spades on top of the pump were different, so I couldn't just reverse the leads, ended up using the leads/connector off the old fuel pump though to get them oriented correctly.
WAIT! You said in the beginning you won with a bid of $425 and at the end you are saying it was over $1500 after fees. Have the fees gone up that much?
SAM'S don't need to b "programmed " An old wives tale. Programming is for theft mostly. EIS key fob and the ECU which relates to the key with starting car. That's it
To get a lower temp cooling fan switch, order one for a 86-87 3.8 Turbo Buick Regal. Hypertech used to sell them, probably not anymore. Also, be sure to do the throttle body coolant bypass. It unnecessarily heats up the intake and robs power.
Hi my boyfriend got his dash cluster partly fixed. But when he turns on his lights at night, it shuts off the digital cluster. We are trying to figure out why
its just a warn from northern tool, got it a few years ago for only 110 dollars. Its permanantly mounted which meant curring a hole for the line and drilling a couple mounting holes.
@@enufced70 no problem, I bought my trailer local cheap but have seem penskee unload these on govplanet on occasion, expensive though but they have longer ramps, great for lower cars
you can, id bleed from scratch this way then do some pedal pumps with the check valve on the calipers to get that air pocket out, sounds counter productive but is very easy
So do you bleed from the top down ? Do you only use the line with the ck valve? What about the hand brake? Your video is really not clear as to how you did it..
Great video..! I basically had the same problem but my c4 is a 95 so it has the Optispark... anyways there was no dielectric grease behind the Ignition Coil plate that mounts to the head on the passenger side behind the power steering pump and no dielectric grease under ignition control module and the small short wire that runs from the Optispark to the coil was in very bad shape... my c4 was purchased 2021 with 87,000 miles was totally factory nothing has never been replaced on it... after replacing that short wire and the Ignition Coil and Ignition Module my C4 came Alive... very strong I have also changed out the Electric Fuel Pump, Fuel Filter and the Fuel Pressure Regulator and she runs Amazing...! It's been said that these components should be changed on the C4 after 75,000 miles... hope this helps someone...
maaan I got my 95 in 2020 and I’m having that problem now. Cranks but wont start. It use to start up like a champ! I changed my ignition coil and module, the opti, spark plugs and wires and that MF still ain’t turnin over. Now the shop sayin it’s the computer 🤷🏾♂️
My 91 would do it to me, it would start just fine for a week or maybe a month and i would park it in garage and get in it next day and just crank no start, so i leave it for later to figure why, a week goes by and I try to start it and it fires right up. drives fine for a week or two. then same thing no start ,wait a week try to start and nothing, it did that to me three or four times didn't know where to start, finally found a you tube vid on the ecu and changed it, starts every time so far now, I guess they go out a lot if you don't smear a lot of heat sink grease on the back.
Do you actually go to the auctions, and do they allow you to inspect the generators that are going up for bid? Finally, will they load it on a trailer for you?
You have another switch for the rear hatch. On the back of the door panel has a switch on both door panels for the hatch, also 1 in the center console.
Hey, I have a question about the brake system on the Archer... if my left seat brake pedals are not working, will the co-pilot (right seat) have braking authority. In other words, are the brake lines separate or does the right seat feed into my master cylinders? Will the parking brake still work if both pilot toe brakes are ineffective?
It depends on where the air is, right and left have a single line going to the caliper so if air is in that area you would have to pump to get marginal brakes if any? There are variables so I cant really give a deffinate yes or no answer. With these brake systems if you have touble, its best to rebuild all the cylinders, not just one. Its much easier to bleed once than multiple times and at shop rates being close to 100 hour if you try to cheap out but end up chasing a problem it can get expensive fast.
Very nice car, you're very lucky that u got it free, But I like 2009 corvette more but will buy the 1985 corvette earlier bec it's a little bit cheaper. I really love in a corvette is the butt (tail lights and the exhaust pipes coming out), It just looks so good and beautiful too. First car I'm going to buy Is also a corvette.
Thanks, its on hold for an airplane build but it will be back. Im honestly not much of a vette guy, notice the Porsche in the backgrounds but the C4 is special to me because of how iconic it was when I was a kid, and that digital dash is amazing!
I've been looking st these, but I know nothing about generators. You said yours has 90 hours. What does that mean? The ones I'm looking at have 5-7 hours.
Hey hey fucknnn hey LOL it's ya goofy m8te from Australia..mate I love ya car..[ HOLDEN COMMODORE VE UTE HSV Maloo R8 E series LS3 turbo start up accelerate sound ]..mate type that in on utube watch n enjoy..it only goes for 1.56 sec but wait till you see it..(and let me know what you think in a reply)- ya goofy m8te from Australia
Hey 👋 I love your videos on your C4. I just bought a 1985 c4 myself with the Doug Nash 4+3. I think you have some of the best DIY video out there for c4's. Keep em coming. Love the content.
Hi, thanks and sorry for the late reply, here ya go! My IA liked it so much I got one for him to, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08H4ZJBJM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
