[ShuggsRR]

I might be interested.

I bought a 95 green 3.2 ATX SHO yesterday. Its my 1st one. It needs work and I hope to have it up and running soon. Once it is up and happy (if ever) I need to make it a bit faster. heh heh

The cam weld is only for v8 SHO's [96-99].

What do you need done to your SHO, I'm in Fort Worth and am willing to help anytime!

Well, I was told that it has a stuck lifter.... ??? Tapping from the top end and an oil leak.

Its had a rough life inside the car and Im Ebaying for some interior trim pieces now. Fun Fun...

I picked it up yesterday on a trailer and brought it to my shop where I guess Im gonna go over the whole car.
I guess Ill do fluids, plugs, etc etc.... From my understanding I should also do the scheduled maintenance. The 60,000 mile value adjustment and such.

I dont know alot about the cars, just stumbled across this one and figured it would be fun so here I am learning about the SHOworld! lol

Where in Fort Worth are you located? I live in Saginaw... 820 and 35w. My shop, where the SHO rests, is in Haslet. Right off 287.

SHO's do not have lifters, it most likely needs a valve adjustment.

Depending on what parts you need and if I still have them, I have some interior pieces for free! The interior pieces I have are mocha/tan, though.

Looks like you already know how to work on cars then! Yes, it would be smart to do the valve adjustment. There's a member on here, SHOBill, who will sell you a new set of stainless steel valve adjustment tools for $60 shipped. Other than that, you will need to find some valve shims, as you can reuse them by flipping them over. Best bet is to find someone parting out a car, pull them from a junk yard SHO, or find some new ones from a Yamaha Dealer. No one around here lends them, you have to pay them to do your valve adjustment. I would lend you mine, but some are pretty new and it's 60k time on 2 of my SHO's.

They're not too much different than other cars, and seem much easier to work on than most.

South Fort Worth, 20 & 35.
