Ok, so I start Olaf and the engine seemed to run strong except he stalled when I put him in reverse, then wouldn't start again without a jump.
Now I'm charging the battery to see if that might help (the car's sat for 3-4 months). I hope it's not an idling issue.
Some discoveries: The car does have power steering, so any modifications to a 4 or 5-spd would be that much more difficult. Also, the ignition cylinder has been taken out with the ignition moving to a keyed switch on the dash near the vents. Odd. The gas pedal isn't there...it's just the stalk coming from the floor. Headliner has been rigged or replaced...looks kind of wierd. Also noticed a collection of red fuses as if the car blew a certain amperage over and over. The seller is selling it for his girlfriend, so he doesn't know too much.
Regarding a transmission cooler: Did the 75's come with a cooler? Is it difficult to install? And what years would work the best?
Thanks!
