I believe you need all the interior components of an automatic window and the door panel. Might be cheaper to buy a complete door. Where in town are you at?

Ive gone to the junk yard and found some 240s there, ive taken the guts outa soem automatic doors and put them in my manual doors and just wirred it through tthe jam and into the fuse boxes. and it worked pretty good. I used my manual door panels and jsut stuck switches in them (came out pretty nice) but you got the panels, so your better off just takin the panels and guts of both doors and switchin them. wish i coulda done that but some animal broke the panels in pickapart trying to get to the speakers...

I took the ground wire from the motors to the fire wall of the car and the switchs hooked up through the fuse box in the kick panel so I could have a fuse and then to my cigarete lighter (14v source).

I think though a better way to have it stock. like it would be to run through a relay in the engine compartment and hooked up through the fuse box in the car. I know that there is empty slots for relays and fuses in the boxes but i dont know if there already wired in between. Becuase if that were the fact and you jsut stuck the fuses and relays in and just pluggin in the doors that would be really cool.

Or you could have just gotten the entire wire harness from the door and plugged it in to the connector inside the cabin. The main harness in the car is already wired with all the correct wires. It is cheaper to make one harness to fit all cars then to make one for each option.

I have manual windows because mine is a weekend racer, not a DD. You will need all the auto window components and the plug is the same plug that the speaker plugs into. You just unplug the old plug and conect the new one. If you look at that plug You will see that the car side has 8 or 10 wires in it, but the door side has 4 maybe. Everything else is just a transfer job.

If you have a manual doors now, then the only wires in the harness coming from the door are for the speaker (blue w/ white stripe, blue w/ yellow stripe) and the wires for the door latch switch. In the interior side of the harness there will be a white connector with 12 wires in it. The other 8 wires in that connector are for the windows, mirror, and lock. Your new door harness just needs to be plugged in and a fuse put in the box. Look in the FSM under the EL section on page 104 to see the harnesses and BF page 11 for the harness schematic.

The definition of valve float is as follows-

Definition: A high-rpm engine condition in which the valve lifters lose contact with the cam lobes because the valve springs are not strong enough to overcome the momentum of the various valve train components. The onset of valve float prevents higher-rpm operation. Extended periods of valve float will damage the valve train.

Valve float is an adverse condition which occurs when the poppet valves on an internal combustion engine valvetrain do not remain in contact with the camshaft lobe during the valve closure phase of the cam lobe profile. This reduces engine efficiency and performance and potentially increases engine emissions.

There are two definitions from different places that are the true definition of valve float. Also if you don't believe that 4 links is only ten crankshaft degrees then you need to call up JWT and explain to them how big of a mistake they made with their adjustable cam gears. The second one is so you can make a set of adjustable cam gears to help you learn about cam and crank timing. I have a set on my 11 sec KA-T and I would love to meet up and run you at Martin sometime.

Next if you read my last post you would see that I stated "approved education such as UTI or a tech school" which is what you restated in the following post trying to prove me wrong with my own information. I know what it takes to get certified, I just don't believe you are since you are 17 and don't even know what valve float is or knew the proper name for what you claimed to be certified in. Load up a copy of your certificate and I will gladly admit your certification, but not your knowledge.

So your admitting you are not an ASE certified Engine Machinist and you don't know what your talking about. After fighting this long, your wrong and you lied, just admit it.

And by valve hat, do you mean the valve seat or the head of the valve? Why is it lagging? What is lagging?

no i am not sayin that or admiting it now put a t in front of hat thats what i ment and buy lagging the springs r not strong enough which means that they wont close fast enough whithc the piston can hit them but wont dammage them if they are bad enough whish intern u have a floting vaulve

Your story keeps changing and your full of $hit. You've spun your answer to both sides of the same point and won't admit you lied. I'm done this, I hope no one damages there engine or car because of your idiocy.
