    Bad Turbo and Replacement Shenanigans

    Oh yeah, it's the turbo. I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a remanufactured turbo from Rising Sun, but I had a couple of questions to float before I did. 1) Any gotcha's I should be aware of on this baby? It's an MMC turbo that's been rebuilt to MMC factory standards only cheaper. 2) I'll...

    WTH?

    So yesterday, after going for a walk, I was almost home. Driving down 94th, which is notoriously bumpy, I'm pretty certain that I experienced a momentary power fault. Like everything turned off, full battery disconnect sort of thing, for about half a second. The van continued on down the road...

    DAS

    Delica Anxiety Syndrome can and will affect thousands of van nerds in the coming year. Delica owners will agonize over parts numbers listed in out-of-date catalogs managed my Russian junkrats, weep into their beers as they try desperately to track down replacement ECU for a 30 year-old-van, and...

    Two Things, Injectors Part Number and

    Howdy folks, Think I'm experiencing some leak-down and I'd like to replace the injectors. Funny thing is that I can't find the part number for them. Anyone have the MMC part number handy? Also, while I'm at it I'm going to cost out a rebuild kit. I've seen several online, but wanted to get a...

    Lost My Van Friend Today

    Love them while your with them. I guess that's my message. Today I lost my foundling. Pepper loved, perhaps more than even me, to ride in my van. I'm going to miss you good girl.

    MagnaFlow 10416 Exhaust Muffler

    I seem to have bought two and Amazon is going to charge me to return it. So if you're looking to do the exhaust upgrade and haven't yet acquired the muffler drop me a line. I'll cover shipping. Asking my prime cost, $66.81 via paypal.

    Compatible Seat Covers

    As one might imagine with upholstery that's about 30 years old, it's starting to look pretty ratty. Consequently, I'm exploring my options. I went to SewFine to take a look and see if they'd be good for custom work on MMC products, but they seem to be limiting themselves to VWs. I noticed that...

    Backup Clunk

    I'm guessing that I've just been warned my tie-rods are going bad. I get a clunk noise when backing up (to the left) emanating from the right-front wheel well. I'm going down there with the zerk gun in a bit and will wiggle and see if I can find the culprit, checking all the usual suspects. Any...

    Who Wore it Better

    Okay, so this thread isn't about who's better. But I find as I'm out and about that people like to park their vans near mine. I'm sure you all have this happen to you. Big open parking lot and the only other guy in a van within a hundred mile radius pulls up next to you, gets out, and goes about...

    Obon?

    I don't recall, but maybe someone else might. Obon is a big Buddhist holiday in Japan, usually in August, that's for commemorating ancestors. My order has been "At Company Warehouse" for about a week. Anyone know if this is a work break holiday too?

    Oil Catch Cans

    Okay, just got my van back from Enji at Apex and what he stressed to me was that I'm getting "too much" blow-by (meaning some it to be expected). I'm going to be trying to decarbonize the pistons and rings with liqui-moly purges and oil changes (his recommendation). But I also need to install a...

    Missed Connections

    Hey, you really made my day. Honk! honk! North bound on California in West Seattle you hit your horn as we drove south. I tooted back to you in that sexy, matched paint low-roof. I used to think that the VW wave was special. I used to think that until I got the MMC greeting. Strangers in a...

    What Did You Do for Your Van Today?

    So, I've been hearing a squeaking sound, at start up and especially under load, when driving my van of late. At first, I suspected my turbo was going bad, but I investigated that right away because I wanted to be sure and avoid the very costly replacement or time consuming rebuild. Good news, my...

    Recharging Delica A/C

    Anyone ever done this before? More importantly, do you have any idea what the AC refrigerant is (crossing my fingers its not R12)?
