    How to remove deposits on wheels?

    I need help with some ideas here. I always take the wheels off my cars every oil change (5K miles, about 1.5 months) to clean the backsides and rotate them. Lately the rears have been building up with heavy deposits of crud that will not easily come off. I did wax them this spring but that did...

    No oil fill cap!

    I just popped my hood today for the 1st time in a month which was 3,000 miles. I opened it to check my fluids and wipe the engine down. I found the oil fill cap upside down on the fuse block cover. :mad::mad::mad: I last had the oil changed at the dealer when I dropped the car off to have...

    T5 issue / rough clutch feel

    I have a problem with my T5 conversion - when I engage/disengage the clutch it feels very rough, like the pedal is scraping on something or rubbing. I took the cable off and tried the pedal. Silky smooth. Does this mean that it is a trans or clutch problem? Should I have greased the input...

    Ribbed WP pulley

    How long can I run a ribbed water pump pulley before I start eating serpintine belts?? This is on a '93 lx 5.0 with reverse rotation pump (stock). The backside of the belt will be riding on the ribs vs. the smooth surface of a stocker (that I don't have). I know I need to get the correct...

    Extra Plug under center console?

    Anybody know what this is for? I had my console upper off today to "tweak" my lower shifter boot. I noticed a grey connector/plug that is just laying in the console. It terminates about midway back, and I'm 100% sure it was not plugged into anything from the factory - there is nothing near it to...

    Magnetic rear blackout panel

    who has one? Would you buy it again? Any problems with it moving around or coming loose from the car? Paint damage? I read all the search posts but there was really no feedback other than having them. I'm thinking about ordering one. Are they all the same mfg'er and sold from different...

    Cheating TPMS

    Can anyone confirm or deny, from personal experience, the possibility of cheating/bypassing/defeating whatever you want to call it the TPMS by placing all four TPMS sensors in a pressurized (32 psi) PVC tube ???? I'm getting conflicting opinions on this one by searching old posts and would...

    Removing paint & clear from Aluminum

    I ended up picking up some "project" wheels. They are 18" Bullitts, but are factory painted SILVER with clear. Perfect condition, but I think they look a bit plain as is, but the price was right! I'm thinking of proceding in one of three ways: 1.) Use as is, they look nice, but don't shine...

    Autometer Electronic Speedometer Install

    I'm planning on using an Autometer electric speedometer (no cable). Can I use the OEM Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) on my '93 lx 5.0 with T5? If so, should I tap into the #3 or #6 wire? I'm thinking it should be the #3 wire since it is the positive side but I'm looking for confirmation. Thanks

    Identifying seats and questions

    What seats came stock in our cars? Is there differences between 87-93? I'm putting a car back together that did not come with seats. Do stock seats have "locking" backs (don't flop around, i.e. have to push a lever to lay forward for rear seat entry/exit), do they recline?? What other...
