This brings back memories.:ugh I had a couple plenum bolts that wouldn't come out also. I used a small angle grinder to cut a nice big slot across the head of the bolt. I then put a dull bit in a short throw pneumatic chisel and came into the slot at an angle to turn the bolt. Between the...

The real lesson is that most failure modes have multiple things that can cause the failure. That's why you should diagnose the problem down to the failing component and not just throw parts at it.

You need to make sure it gets fixed really good. I haven't used Kiss' personally, but I have seen some of their work and it looks good. They could probably give you some references.

I hear you. Mine is in a baggie hanging on the side of the fridge. It came off and I was lucky enough to find it. I had the same thing happen with one of the fender side emblems. I found that one too and put it back on with JB Weld. It's been holding up for a couple years now. I'll...

I have seen one on ebay a couple times. Good luck in your search.

Sounds like the camber adjustment is off. A four wheel alignment should take care of it.

I replaced mine for three reasons. 1. All four speaker amps were gone/going. 2. I can now play CDs. 3. We do quite a bit of cruising with our club and I can now listen to the radio and talk on the CB at the same time. With the Bose system, the radio had to be turned off before the CB mic...

IT takes 4 bulbs. The type number may be in the owner's manual.

I've seen my mpg display go to 12.5 when I have a scan tool connected. With the relationship of the mpg display and idle issue occurring at the same time, I would suspect that the problem is electrical. How to find it is a whole different question. Do you have the factory service manuals?

My control arm bushings were starting to crack and show some wear, so I replaced those while I had the control arms off.

I usually replace mine around 5 or 6 years as preventive maintenance. I don't want something as inexpensive and easy to replace as a battery to leave me stranded.

Factory design on the '88 is for the fan to come on at 230. It rarely gets that hot unless in heavy stop and go traffic. I would think the '87 would be the same.

The best I've come up with is the cordless screwdriver with a long T40 bit. It beats the heck out of the ratchet, but still isn't near as convenient as the newer ones. You'll find the vast majority of the posters on this site to be mature, friendly, and helpful. Rob and the moderators run a...

We've had XM for a few years now. First on the Buick LaCrosse and now on the Saturn Aura XR. My wife loves it. I could probably get along without it, although I do listen to it sometimes on my comupter at work. We travel between Minneapolis and Chicago occassionally, so being able to get...

This is rather strange, as it happened suddenly and you have replaced the pump, with no change. It was running good prior to this incident? One thing you can try is it to pull the vacuum line off the pressure regulator and check for any signs of fuel in the line. This would indicate a failed...

When the ignition is first turned on, can you hear the pump run for 2 seconds? If not,check to see of there is voltage to the pump when first turned on.

When I replaced my last one (#3), the guy at the parts store told me not to get their store brand rebuilt. He said to spend the extra money for the AC Delco unit. I took his advice and that was 6 or 7 years ago. Still going strong. :beer Also, if the battery is down, I don't use the...

I would say wheel bearing or possibly a universal joint. Jack the car up and hold the wheel at 6 O'clock and 12 and see if there is any play back and forth. Do the same at 3 and 9. If there is more than a very small amount of play, you have a wheel bearing problem. You can also put the car...

Mine is stuck overhead in my garage, wrapped in an old quilt.
