Oh yeah, you have good eyes.

Is that a partial World Bumper swap I see?

So, looks like auto trans have the bolts alternate, manual does not.
On my original 86 auto, the universal bolted directly to the trans,
no guibo.

Bobbo, I also remember seeing the bolts alternate on the guibo, but I'm not sure where I saw that. When I did a 5 speed swap, there was no room to feed the bolts from the tranny side. Here's a photo of a pre shot before a guibo change, may not be an e24. https://www.flickr.com/photos/28107540@N02/44...

I would disconnect the battery and do continuity checks and
look for an open circuit.

Sounds great Bert.

Copy photos to your desktop and load the photos from there.

I for one didn't think you were throwing parts in on a brake problem.
Your diagnosis on a dropping brake pedal would indicate master cylinder.

If it was me, I would have done the same. Just so happens that a leaking caliper
has a similar symptom.

If the known good motor has the same results, there's a
problem with the going down wire from the switch to motor.

Here is a list for the ETM's. If you jump the motor, bypass the switches will it go up?
I would do a continuity test from the switches to the motors.
If there's a break, test each section of wire.

Make sure the battery is fully charged before starting.
If it's not, while cranking the reserve in the battery may not be enough
to power the starting circuit.

Song,

I have Ireland's SS cat back and for the price can't
be beat in my opinion.

Cogeniac,

What collector car insurance only gives you 500 miles per year?

So, the photo I posted was from an arm I bought many years ago. I remebered screws holding the wing on the arm. When I saw the rivets I was surprised. I said to myself, old age does affect memory. It was a beautiful day last Saturday here in NY. So I took the 6 to strech it's legs. I took a look at ...

Yes, just looked at mine and it is riveted also.

World bumpers were painted. Same material as the side caps.

My US 86 (owned for 36 yrs) has the wing on it like yours. It's not aftermarket,
it's to put more downforce on the windshield at high speeds.
Realoem does not show the wing or the screws. What I'll do is take my screw and measure
the specs. Give me a couple of days

My mistake, I stand corrected -- misread your post.

I have a pair from my 86 US.

$125 shipped.

Listen to Hornhospital.

There's probably plenty things to work on a rust free car to
give you the sense of accomplishment. If you are supercheap,
how will you afford the vast cost of a restoration?

Can you do this on a golf shirt?

I sent Tej this link.

Grnshrk,

I use Adams. The great thing is that you don't have to worry
if the spray gets on the paint, it just evaporates away.
