    Brakes Master cylinder reservoir leak

    My brakes aren't the greatest so I've been looking into them and doing some research. About 1-2 times a year I have to add a little brake fluid to the reservoir. So I started looking around the master cylinder and noticed what looks like some fluid build up/residue where the mc connects to the...

    Drivetrain Chirping noise

    Is there anything else I can look for or try without removing tranny? I was hoping it was just a preload issue but again it chirps mostly when clutch is engaging and I beleive I have a decent amount of preload on the throw out bearing. Can you have too much preload? Thanks!

    Thanks! I ended up taking back the 40 series mufflers and got the American thunder cat back since it already has the hangers welded on the mufflers.

    Electrical Fuel and hatch release button wiring

    Awesome... thanks! So, the 2 g/y wires are together. I just need to figure out how to connect them to fuel door release switch since the connector has been cut off. Spade connectors will probably be my best bet or finding a car with the same fuel door release button and cut the connector off...

    Electrical Fuel and hatch release button wiring

    Thanks that help! I have a couple problems/questions. 1. For the fuel door release, is it 2 y/g wires that go into the connector and one pk/wt? These wires have been cut off the connector for the fuel door release and I don't have the connector. If I separate the y/g wires my dome light does...

    Electrical Fuel and hatch release button wiring

    That would be helpful... thanks! The wiring diagram in the Haynes manual 9nky has the fuel door release and not the hatch release. I have a connector unplugged in the glove box and I want to make sure it is the right one. I believe the fuel door release is green and yellow.

    Passenger side...there's no way I'm getting the driver side out. There's not enough room with my gt40 headers. A lot of water came out with just the passenger side out though so I'm pretty happy Thanks!

    Coolant Refill Help

    Ok, I got one of the drain plugs out and I'll hopefully do the other later today. Do I just use a thread sealant on it before I install again? What'sthe torque spec? Hopefully this all helps my rusty coolant. Thanks!

    Coolant Refill Help

    The biggest thing I'm concerned about is freezing. The lower rad hose is already off and radiator empty. I just can't get the block empty because I could not get the engine drain plugs loose. So, I will be safe from freezing if I refill my radiator with premixed 50/50 coolant and still have...

    Water Pump Hoses

    Yeah, that's it and the heater hose. Thanks for the info. I found out if you just search "heater hose" and "bypass hose" on advance autos site, they come up and are available locally. I guess I just needed to search the correct part name/description. Thanks for all the help!

    Water Pump Hoses

    It seems local auto stores don't have exact fits if u search by specific car but when doing a generic search some cone up that may work. I guess I I can take my old ones in and compare. Is that what u guys do? I just don't feel like spending a lot at lmr for these hoses. I would think there's...
