Hey guys, new to this forum!!
Bought this 120Y about 9 months ago for $400, bought it to learn stuff as I'm a light vehicle apprentice, but now I love it to death and I am way to attached to it.
When I bought it, wouldn't run, brakes didn't work so good (still don't), Looked like it had never been washed before, and was not taken care of what so ever.
To make it run and gain some confidence that engine was fully serviced/wouldnt die on me when i drive it i had to do a small amount of things!
Probably done more than i needed to on a why but oh well
**
New Ignition coil + Ballast resistor.
New Leads
New Plugs
New Points + Condensor
New Fuel Filter (was literally bocked haha)
New batery (was leaking and corroding everything.. )
2x New Radiator hoses
Rebuilt the carby and while rebuilding had to buy some new nuts for the manny as it was missing some, and the guy i bought the nuts from threw in a painted manny
.. )
Replace carby/engine air filter (was fried with leaves and sh*t around it lmao)
Replaced the Automatic transmition oil
Replaced engine oil + filter
Replaced coolant and flushed well
Replaced brake fluid and flushed best I could (master is ****)
Balanced all four wheels at work (fixed 70% of steering wheel vibration haha)
Wheel allignment and Steering wheel adjustment
Four new tyres
And literally washed it like twice a week to get it looking half decent haha.
**
some things i still need to replace/fix:
Need to get a new master cylinder or someone to fixed mine (i have the box reservoir.. having trouble finding replacement)
Need a new handbrake cable (never replaced one of these before either or even sure i can get one lol)
Needs new front Rotors/pads ( might convert when i do suspension so wont bother for now, and I don't drive it anyways..only once in a blue moon)
Needs new rear drums and shoes (wouldn't hurt for new springs that hold the shoes together either)
Needs new rubber seals for the doors, front and rear windscreen etc.
Needs new floor carpet
Needs rust repairs ASAP!!! .. but I haven't had the time
Would like to take motor and everything out of engine bay and temporarly spray the bay BLACK.
Not sure what I am going to do with this 'why' but its been too long since I done some work on it other that service..
So I'm starting to consider replacing motor, suspension, wheels, etc etc
But first thing i want to replace is the suspension and I am considering coilovers.
Recomendations and opinions are more than welcome!!!
Heres the engine bay because server wouldn't let me upload more than 6 on the website
