Actually what I will do is take the VATS bypass I bought for my 86 (but never used as it's problems were more of the 'dirty ign lock-kind') and take it apart and put the different resistors in it. That item is a connector that fits the wiring harness and the other end is just some bigger...

Have you ever had that sickening feeling of turning the key and nothing happening, not even the gnashing sound of the starter? Welcome to the wonderful world of VATS. I've now had my 86 (now departed) and 95 both strand me in such a manner. There are quite a few posts about VATS, but I'm going...

It was the VATS. Tutorial with pictures coming real soon...

Ok, need more help here for the electrically-challenged: Measure resistance of pellet: Set Multimeter to 2VK Ohms and get .521 Went to Radio Shack and got one Pack of 10k OHm 1/4 watt resistors (pn. 271-1335), and 2 packs of 22k Ohm 1/4 watt Resistors (pn. 271-1339), so if I run this in...

If you've ever tried to replace a starter on one of these you'll pay any amount to get someone else to do it.

Security light does stay on. Kick panel is already removed (to check the clutch safety switch) and I'm already to measure the pellet(s). I have had similar VATS problems with my 86, so I'm use to this kind of fun. Thanks.

No, but it's on my list of things to check.

Let me just say it was difficult enough just trying to figure out where to stick the damn paperclip... 95 with OBDII connector (16 pin). Finally figured it out and jumped 4 and 12. Got following codes: H53 (Low voltage?) 1. --- 1. --- 9. --- A. then 1.0 Next I got from banging around...

As I was coming home last night I had a horrible rattle (preverbal "bolts shaking in a can" sound) with the clutch pedal depressed to the floor. The clutch was replaced a year ago (10k) right before I bought the car. I recently replaced the master and slave (slave twice) but never had this...
