Quote from: herb427scDid you find anything interesting inside the PMIII and
what parts kits did you use to rebuild it????

You can find the main parts in a rebuildkit for 1" Firebird/Fiero cylinder.
You need three kits, and some O-rings.

Its not an easy jobb....so be careful.

The reason my cyl did?nt work........someone had used  the wrong fluid.

The PM3 is still sitting in the workshop..........I haven`t been well

I`m happy today :D

After taking the hole PM3 apart.....and cleaned everyting, we started to get a grip on the construction....and what part there was inside.

After a few hours of measuring and scratching our heads......everything fall in place. The internal part are the same as Firebird/Fiero.
I`m going to need three repairkits.....but they are cheap.... :D

There is two small rubber- rings.......behind the insex-plugs, in the front of the mastercylinder....I dont know where to find. But I dont need them.....the old one will do.

The rest of the parts is normal O-rings.

Today I took the Powermaster 3 out of my GPT.

How do I take the mastercylinder appart.....?????
I have removed the steel ring.....and the aluminium thing, with the rubber rings. But I can?t get the pistons out.
Someone have a drawing....so I can see how it is constructed.

Quote from: RW89TGPI think the best thing for you to do would be to get a picture of the ABS pump under the hood and let us get a good look at it.. describe to us exactly what is happening, are there lights flashing?  No pressure on the pedal?

We have two cars , one turbo and one non turbo, with same problem.

ABS light flash.....pedal pressure (little to low).....but no brakes.

Quote from: 4PASNUWelcome, so what go you interested in the TGP?  You must have really been impressed to have one sent to Europe.

I saw one in a book.......10 years ago.
And decided I should have one....sooner or later.

An  in September....this one appeared.....for 700 Dollar.

So I sent the money........although I?d never seen it....

Quote from: mfewtrail......I believe the car is in Sweden or Norway(both are mentioned elsewhere on the site).  

The plates are from Norway.
And the square headlights.....may be British....they drive on the wrong side of the road...

After a first check of the car.......I?m verry happy whith the shape.

The roof is a little sunburned.... the rest of the body is good. Some small dents, but nothing major.
All the parts seem to be there.......   :D

It dont run perfekt........the SnapOn-computer gets strange signals from the TPS and Map-sensors.

Engine sounds good...turbo works....and the gearbox seem to work ok.

Someone knowing the history of my car..???
