    Power steering fluid change, got some questions

    I am in the middle of a power steering fluid change on my 1992 LX 5.0 and I have some questions and concerns. I have the terrible whine and the fluid looks disgusting. Probably it has never been changed in the 118k miles on the car. 1. Check the reservoir and its full. 2. Take the hose...

    All radiators from 87-93 are not the same?

    My bad assumption was that a 1991 LX 5.0 radiator would be identical to my 1992 LX 5.0 which is leaking. It is mostly the same except there are two extra ports on the 1992, I assume for some kind of transmission lines. I'm not sure exactly how they work since they are are not plugged up...

    My side mirrors on my 1992 are crotchety looking at best. I pulled them off today, taped them up and spray painted them with some flat black color. One of them I accidentally touched and it left a big fingerprint. To fix that I tried to wipe it with a paper towel and oh no is all I can say...

    Oxidation on both metal panels above the headlights?

    I just got a sweet 1992 lx 5.0 today and it is in the most amazing shape. The only problem is these two panels, drivers and passenger side (quarerpanels?) seem to be heavily oxidized. The first thing I did was to take some turtle was polishing compound to them. It says it is for small/medium...
