I

just put another motor In my 98 5spd this weekend. When I pull the ebrake up it goes all the way with little to no resistance. What can it be, I already adjusted the 10mm screw. Here are some pics. Sorry I can't get them uploaded

Old motor out








New lower mileage motor in...





After a small clean up. Just waiting on the ypipe...





Complete interior out ready for a new look





All back together





New some beige or blk leather to complete the interior.

 

Amazing that you were able to replace the engine, but not adjust the e-brake - LOL ! Sorry - just found it odd. Since you probably have the FSM, there is a good explanation in there. Otherwise, it would be advisable to download it, and then go from there.

Believe me, it will be tons easier than replacing the engine.

 

Lol oh of course I know that I haven't got around to it.... These are the first warm days we had so...��. Thanks for the input smart guy

 

Sorry - I wouldn't be able to get to square 1 on replacing an engine, but I'm sure I could figure out the emergency brake setup. I guess we all have our skill-sets. Wanna trade ?

 

check the slack of the cable/spring/caliper behind the rear tire. Might be worth unbuttoning the boot and checking to make sure es ta bueno. I agree with Rit, so I'm only giving you clues you may have already pursued. XD

 

Lol your a funny guy I only asked its been so cold that I haven't checked the various things it might be. Naw I'm good apparently you don't have much skill!

 

Thanks a lot.... I just figured I'll ask on here before I fool around with it...

 

Awaiting my y-pipe to finish it up, but she runs like a charm! Thanks Dad you've thought me well!!!!
