When the body color of S2000 is white, the water stains on the parts that are not normally removed are conspicuous. After maintaining the area around the tail lens, I worked around the high mount stop lamp. The high mount stop lamp is fixed with 5 nuts. Like the tail lens, it uses a 10mm deep socket. Since the tightening torque was unknown here as well, I measured it with a torque wrench, but it seems that this is also 10 Nm. Only the nut in the center does not allow tools to enter, so I removed the actuator attached to the trunk striker and then accessed it. The actuator has been fixed with two screws. This is a terrible stain. The mud stains are also terrible, so I had a hard time cleaning it. The scale is also stubborn, so I used the compound carefully. After cleaning. It became like this. The high mount stop lamp side was also quite dirty. Since the gasket could not be separated, I cleaned it with a rag. I’m a little worried if it will leak if reused. I was able to clean this much. Return in reverse order. Be careful not to […]
Recently, the power window of JB23 Jimny is not working well. It vibrates jerky at the start and stop. Motor life? I will disassemble it for the time being. As a preparation, tape the door handle. Remove the parts marked with a circle. When I remove the panel, I pull out the coupler of the switch, but I can’t pull it out even if I push it with my finger. Push it with a flat-blade screwdriver and it will come off quickly. The driver’s side was pushed with a finger and slipped out. After removing the panel, switch it on again and lower the glass. Remove the bolt indicated by the circle that holds the glass, and raise the glass to the top. Tape the glass and push the switch down to lower the frame. The yellow circle is the switch. Remove the blue circle coupler to the motor, but you can push it by hand. The X frame will not come out unless you remove the clip from the sheet metal after pulling it out. Remove the four red circle bolts on the right, and remove the two red circle bolts on the left while supporting with your hand. […]
Preparation for cleaning the throttle chamber There is a problem that tends to occur with the 350Z that is more than 10 years old.“The accumulation of dirt and debris in the throttle chamber causes idling problems and stalls at startup.” The tools needed for the work are listed below. 10mm & 14mm ratchet wrench (It’s easy to have an extension of about 150 mm) flathead screwdriver carb cleaner lubricant Waste cloth The parts you need to remove are as follows. Engine cover Strut tower bar Suction pipe Air cleaner system The part that is color-coded in the image is that part. Red is the engine cover, green is the tower bar, and blue is the intake system. Removing the engine cover and tower bar in advance will make the work a little easier. How to clean the throttle chamber First, remove the tower bar. Because you cannot access the bolts on the engine cover unless you remove them. Remove a total of 8 bolts and nuts with a 14mm ratchet. At this time, if it seems to be stuck, apply lubricant. Next, the engine cover. This is a 10mm ratchet that can be easily removed by removing a total of […]
