So, engine might be removed but I still need to keep a good pace on the project to get it completed as soon as possible. ;) I went out for an hour today and started removing some components from the engine compartment. I think this stuff wont find its way back to my vehicle, I should do without because of the new components I am planning to add to the engine. Also, before 1976 in Sweden emissions wasn't that controlled, therefore I can remove the EGR system. My mindset is pretty much to eliminate as many sources of failure as possible.

This is the electronic ignition controller. Two bolts secure it. |
|
The voltage regulator(2 bolts) and ballast resistor(1 bolt). |
|
Close up of ballast resistor and cables. |
|
Removing fuel pump by pulling the hoses. |
|
Time to move on to the electric cables. Removed all clips attaching
it to the cowl in order to pull it out. |
|
Somehow this does not look original, attached to the cowl just
above the power brake booster... Two bolts. |
|
Removed the charcoal canister, 2 bolts on each side. |
|
Cables starting to come out... |
|
Nice and clean. A few hours more will help me get rid of all
components from engine compartment to make it ready for
some welding, sandblasting and paint. |
|
Bagged and tagged, voltage regulator, EGR time delay controller,
electronic ignition controller and ballast resistor. |
That's all for today friends. I'll see if I can get out tomorrow and continue the project.
Admit I am getting there! :)
