Ok, so I've pulled all the lines conneting to the engine off, etc. vacuum and fuel and coolant. I disconnected the wire harnesses as well as took out the battery. Now I belive its the speedo line that goes from the fire wall to the tranny that I cant get undone. Not sure if it's clipped on or screwed on or whatever, but I just cannot get it.
So I said fuck it I'll take apart the linkage. Got the torque bar off, and then went to take the shift rod off. Took the little saftey clip off and the god damn pin that holds the shift rod to the tranny is fucking stuck. I tried beating it with a rubber mallet, hammering it out with a screwdriver and hammer, but that thing is stuck good. I put some rust buster on it to see if that makes any bit of difference.
So I guess my questions are, how the hell do I get the speedo cable off and what should I do about that pin?
But other than that its going great, ran into a few bolts that broke when taking them out but nothign to serious, one was on the exhust manifold shroud, and then another one was on something that didn't matter much as well. Found out that I need a new radiator, as mine was fucked beyond belief even after fixing it.
Any who, lunch time and then back to trying to get this shit apart.
