Just bought a 91 Convertible but I think I am missing a piece from where the boot sits (when top is up) – any suggestions on locating a photo for confirmation?
Love your site – how is the elect conversion working?

I do metro frame restoration. I do have people sign a waver. I dont do this as a business Im just a welder that loves to keep the old metro’s alive. The repairs are safe,strong and will improve the ride quality of your metro. So if you are near Wisconsin I can even pick it up and drop it off. I can pick it up,repair and drop off cheaper then you can buy a beater for. I always have a metro that has been repaired and will take yours in on trade if that interests you.

I have repaired three metro’s with bad frames and wheels ripped off. It works well I do it a little different then it shows here and I do extra bracing. All the cars I have done are back on the road,safe and much better then factory.

Comment on Geo Metro and Suzuki Swift Wiring Diagrams by Jim

If you are having problems with your right headlight being dim in a 96 metro look for degraded wire splices in the main wiring harness where it “T’s” about a foot in front of the drivers side fire wall. They spliced the white/red wire in that location and that splice in my car coroded to dust. I had a low voltage on the white/red wire at the right headlight and therefore the headlight was dim. I tore the fuse box apart and spent about 3 days tracking this down by tearing into the wiring harness and chasing other useless possibilies. There is also a white wire splice in that same location in the wiring harness, it was not completely coroded but I repaired it as well. I have nice bright lights now and I suspect this will be a problem on many of the metros. I have photos but don’t know how to post them.

I have a 98 4 cyl automatic metro with a blown motor and a 96 3 cyl 5 speed lsi metro. The 98 body is in like new condition and the 96 is rotting away with a nearly brand new motor in it. I’d like to convert the 98 to a 3 cyl 5 speed by stripping the 96. What concerns me the most are the wiring issues. I would use the 96 ecu computer, 96 engine compartment to ecu wiring harness and 96 motor and 5 speed in the 98. What advice can anyone give me? Studying the wiring diagrams here on this site there appear to be differences in the passenger compartment wiring harnesses that go to the ecu behind the glovebox. Is the only way to do this to use all the wiring harnesses from the 96 including those in the passenger compartment which I think would require me to remove the dash too. Advice appreciated – has anyone done this?

I have a 1997 Geo Metro 3 cyl 5 speed. Can I put an XFI cam in this car? If I swap in the XFI cam, will the car have less power…I hear that the XFI metros are not much for highway driving…I need the car to have enough power to get around safely on the freeway.

I have gound my LSI cam to XFI specs. Will I need to replace the computer with an XFI one to get optimal gas mileage? Or anything else? Thanks.
