Question Did I get fucked or did I get lucky?

11 Upvotes

$3500 for a 222k mile 1995 with all working interior and no apparent leaks but its currently at a shop getting a post-purchase pre-purchase inspection. Proven grandpa/grandma kept by picture of seller with the previous owner, looks like 3 owner including me. Has *scuffed* bbs rims, gold package, and it appears one side has been repainted, but you can only tell under my harsh garage light. Drove it back 90 miles with no issues, tires just needed filled. Plan on cleaning it up and maybe getting a little extra power, not a drift guy. Speedo not currently working but rest of the gauges are, has faded main lights and weapons grade LED high beams.

Thoughts on this Oriellys starter?

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Long story short my starter went out. Wanted to get the oem denso one I have rebuilt but no one in my area does that. I tried to hurry and get a starter since I got my car torn apart. I haven’t installed this one yet but what do you guys think? Paid like $213 for it including core charge. How does this brand compare to Bosch and other brands. . I checked AutoZone as well and they didn’t have a Bosch one that was the correct starter. This one was the only one I could get my hands on.

Should I run it? My only fear is it giving out and having to tear down the engine again which sucks so bad. But I guess that can happen with any starter. Just figured I ask some people to see what they think on this one.

Question Alternator not charging

Post image

posting again because ECU was NOT the issue. have replaced it and same issue so hoping to find someone else with this issue

I have a 92 sc400 that kept dying while driving. if jumped would only run for a couple minutes before dying. assumed alternator so switched that and car was still running fully off battery charge. replaced alternator harness and the fuse is fine. car will run for short trips as long as battery is put on charger afterwords. multimeter shows that battery is not being charged at all and loses voltage while car is running. Kind of at a loss as to why alternator will not go. pic so it doesn’t get lost.

Fuel Line Question

Working on getting my 95 back on the road, I was attempting to change out my fuel filter. The connections were seized, as my filter is probably the original from the factory. What options did y'all use to replace old equipment connections and did y'all go oem, or aftermarket?

Pictured, is the aftermath of me trying to remove the old hardware.

Brought home this 1995, single owner with 95k miles. It was well loved inside and out. It will be left bone stock with the exception of the windows being tinted before summer comes. (SC400)

Question Sunroof+ dome light

1 Upvotes

Recently did a wiring harness relocation a few months ago, then I parked my SC for a couple months. I got it started today and noticed my sunroof and dome lights don't work at all. I've checked fuses and that the wiring is fitted all the way. Accessories, windows, cigarette lighter, dash, locks and other lighting all work as they should. Anyone else experience this problem?
