I have taken Digital Photos of my '93 Metro 3 cylinder, 1 L engine
components.

I enhanced them via PhotoShop (use any photo handling program).
Lighten/darken Contrast-up/down Sharpen dodge areas etc...

I then made a horizontal and a vertical scale to "Paste" onto the photos.

I pasted the H and V scales over the photos and saved them to
www.imageshack.com (you have to register - it is FREE!)

Now I can give a web link here - like: click on it....

THEN, I can ask what is that thingie at map section L-10?

Or what is that part at D-2 or H-4 or J-5....

Nice huh? This saves disk space and loadup time here on this site.

Try it - you'll like it.....

It is worth it to buy 4 wheels ($60) and have the snow tires mounted and ready to go at a moments notice.
DoctorBill

I agree...Just wondering where you found 4 wheels for $60. I am ready to buy. See my post under snow tires.
Thanks Doc.

In Spokane, I went to Whitey's wrecking yard.

Where ever you live, there must be several wrecking yards nearby.

Call them and ask the price for your car's size wheels.

Phone shopping can save you BIG $$$...and a lot of time driving
all over hell's half acre.

Nice Battery hold down DR. Bill :lol:

Nice Battery hold down DR. Bill :lol:


I bought the threaded metal rod setup to replace the corroded away
battery hold-down that came with the car when I bought it this
summer.

It was too long.... So I just recently bought a shorter one and when
I get off my dead butt, I will put it in correctly.

I get lazy and don't keep up with my cars constantly.

I used to like working on automobiles in my younger days, but now
at 62 I've lost interest in stooping, bending, laying on my back with
greasy dirt falling in my face and eyes, getting cuts all over my hands,
dirt into my fingernails (to the bone), not having the correct tool,
getting up every 3 minutes to get ANOTHER tool I need but isn't there
at hand, trying to loosen bolts and nuts frozen with rust, having to
work on some poorly designed and placed component an idiot
designer put in a moronic position covered with 15 other components
I have to remove first, and hurting like Hell the next day....etc., etc., etc............

And now, modern cars are too complex to work on, too packed with
environmental crap to be able to get my hands where I need to
work (in some cars, the spark plugs are inaccessable!) and most
have computers one doesn't dare mess with.

OK lets move forward...

If you will remove your air cleaner and take a picture of the trans. side of the throttle body, I can point out the component you seek. I do however, recommend that you purchase a Haynes manual, or better yet, go down to your local library and gather information from one of their "Motor" shop manuals.

I think you responded to another thread in this thread....

I'll go to the correct thread to reply. It is cold and wet lately,
so it might be some time before I get to it.

Be patient.
