two questions here
today i went to go home put the seat belt on and the button on the buckle spring broke. called ford thinking hey a seat belt is a seat belt they should still make those. well the part number for the svo is obsolete. Will any seat belt buckle work up to 93 or before airbags? i was thinking junkyard but for saftey reasons cant really rationalize that.
second smog question
I just got a new cat. and a bunch of exhaust leaks patched (sounds much nicer) runs much better old one was melted after two years. So my buddy i know has a smog lic. so he pretested the car (previous issues not passing smog HCO's too high.i got a nice gross polluter on my hands now WOOT!) I got it down to 133ppm max 138ppm. Any other ideas to bring it down more? Or just run it really hard for a while before i go smog basic tune up stuff. I turned the boost down to 14psi and dropped the timming back 10` btdc likes it is supposed to, when i pre-tested it so. Every thing passed the way as is but i have to test only. I need to have the boost solenoid plugged in (Which does not work and leaks horribly), I'm running my manual boost valve right now.
question 2a)
I read my vaccum anywhere between 11lbs-15lbs it floats and i havnt seen 18-20lbs of vaccum for some time now. No obvious leaks that i can see. would this also be causing my problem?
Any ideas to my problem?
ohh btw this is for my black 86svo with mods below not the 84 that thank my well you know, was smogged with no problem with the title transfer so worries really quick with that
