My 8.32 1989 project!

Hi everyone!

Here´s a new thread concerning my 1989 Thema 8.32, non cat. Few owners...and probably with only 93000km.
It´s not been in use...or washed since 2011 after previous owner startet to replace the timing belt. I bought it as a non running Project. Hoping to get it running.
So far: I´ve assembled the last things and found some problems caused because it´s not been use: master and slave cylinder for the clutch and the fuel pump was dead.
After replacing the fuel pump...of course I´ve got some leaks...caused by the problem with taking over some one else´s Project :-)

BUT I do start with a few questions:

1)I´ve been trying to find som Pictures of HOW the hoses and wires are supposed to be positioned in the car (don´t know the English Word for it...hauling?)
The question is not where to connect them - but the way they are installed in the car! Are you with me? I´ve found pictures of it on other cars and motorcycles
I´ve had, but not this one :-(

2) The return pipe from the fuel pressure regulator....is it supposed to be connected to a hose that gose to the AC? I´ll get a Picture during the day!

3) What did the 8.32 have for tires from the start? Pirelli? It´s equipped with 26 year old Good Years at the moment - and they are a bit dry :D

I can guarantee you that more pictures and questions are soon to be written :-D

I've made a series of pictures from the engine bay of my 8.32. I can send them to you if you want?

The correct type of tyres are hard to find. The tires are nowadays rare. So just concentrate on finding the right tires in 205/55/15 in the correct speed specification.

Anyone who knows where this part comes from? I guess somewhere around the dash board? But I might be wrong...has happened once...or twice before :lol:
