Anyone in the DFW area interested in getting together and teaching me a few things about my car?? lol it kinda just fell on my lap , and i really really would like to know exactly what is going on under the hood. so far i have found out it is has a 305 (5L) V8 engine? and thats about it. I have never really been into cars until recently but it seems a bit hard to pick up on the lingo and knowing what anything does. All my friends have ricers or luxury cars, which doesnt help any. I think i am the first asian in this area to own an el camino hahaha .
i just dont know anything. so................ i'll bring beers:nanawrench:
at some point i would like to know how to take the whole thing apart and rebuilding it i justt dont know where to start.

thanks for your help!

Well I can't make it to Texas, but is there a problem with it somewhere? Thats the first place I would start. If not a good tune up and drive and enjoy it. Maybe a sound system or rims and tires. Oh, and welcome to ECC from AZ.

:Welcome!: If Centex offers to come help you, don't let him bring his BFH!! :poke:

Come to Belton on May 14 and you can talk and get advice about your Elky all day from over 80 different Elky owners. 80 heads are better than 1.

There are several of us in the Dallas area, Wu. I have an '86 with a 305 in it and I learn a lot from these guys. It would probably benefit you a great deal to join us in Belton on May 14 - I'm hoping to learn much more about my "trar" while I'm there.
We can learn together! :)

My son coined the name Trar~

Welcome to the site! You came to the right place, these guys are a wealth of knowledge that will save you time and headaches. Also a lot of laughs. Tell us more about the rig or pix. You can get a lot of input just from that. Enjoy!

Wu Wu , Since this is a new vehicle to you and hopefully you will make the road trip to the Belton show , I would suggest you find a shop you trust and have them do a safety and systems check for you . Perhaps it is time for a little TLC and you will know it is ready for the road . Having the other members at Belton check out your Camino for you is a great opportunity you should do . Have a good time . Some of us Florida boys are envious .
