Re: 1996 SC1 Sludge in coolant reservoir

Re: Doesn't make sense to me
If the water pump is leaking, they usually drip down the backside of the pulley. If you run your finger around the bottom rear edge of the water pump pulley after the engine has cooled down, you will...

Re: Rear Brake Wheel Cylinder Replacement
If changing the cylinder is what you intended to do, then the broken bolt means nothing, except for getting another bolt. Get the brake line off and put in the new cylinder.

Re: SL2 2001 Manual 258***/ lots of questions

Re: strut failure after 1 year?

Re: Sc2 no spark
