Another noob question. I know not to reuse my oil cooler. Today, I took it off and found metallic bits in the oil that drained out. I'm guessing the lines are ok to reuse after a good cleaning.

A buddy said it might have been caused by detonation. To my untrained

To clarify: All FA24s use a vacuum pump for the brake booster? Auto and manual alike?

I would assume that there is a hose/line that runs from the pump to the booster on all FA24s.

Since you are using the Fa20 wiring harness, instead of repinning the "first 4" sensors, couldn't you just use the FA20 sensors? Or am I missing something?

Well, on a really cold day, in a vehicle with a 6 volt system, you had to push the clutch in or you might not get it started. That 90 weight lube in the transmission didn't want to move.
