Tight fitting battery I. The red SE
-
Definitely not the correct battery. Looks like the hold-down clamp won't even install. The plastic heat shield that goes between the battery and engine won't install, either. Also, it's a top post Because of the grills, it should be a side post battery.
By the way, can anyone see the battery without logging in? That's one of the problems I encounter when a third-party host is used to post pictures from a cell phone.

Guests should now be able to see attachments. Please check again.
This particular image is an attachment hosted locally.

I can now see the image on my laptop and phone without logging in. Now our non-registered guests looking for guidance can see a how-to thread or an activity thread that has a lot of pictures.
Thanks.

The battery post do clear the grill by a quarter of an inch. I know of the batteries with the post on the side but they are not available here.
I wanted to look for a set of injectors, on ebay they seem to be in the $600 range. That's expensive, then I have e to handle the shipping costs too.
The government has set up the shipping to be double the cost from previous t8me I got parts from the USA.

Are Bosch injectors OK, I saw them at rock auto for less than $15 each
-
If you're still running the 2.8, look at the Standard Motor Products FJ9 injectors. That's what I'm running in my 86SE and they work great. I see the notation of Bosch, too.
Also, I just noticed something in the battery image. It looks like the hot wire is burned. Has it previously shorted on something? It needs to be repaired.
-
Bosch injectors are fine, if that's what you need.
-
The battery is brand new, un used. The batteries with the post on the side here are not available
-
Do you use your spare tire? If not, I would recommend moving the battery to the front compartment. That way you don't have to worry about room or potentially shorting out the positive terminal with that battery.

I got all injectors reconditioned for $120aud
They are now fitted along with the common rail.
I am now looking for all the plumbing under the intake manifold / plenum.
I looked at the other fiero here, there is 5 other small pipes. I need replacements
-
Allen, got your voice mail this morning. Something about pipes under the manifold, so I'm guessing this was what it was about.
Finding a good set of plastic vacuum lines will probably be very difficult. I have lines from several motors, but still not enough to make a complete set. I would suggest that you save the rubber end pieces and order a set of stainless steel vacuum lines from Rodney Dickman
