With all of the problems you are having it leads me to suspect that at some time in this car's history it got flooded. The wheel bearings got wet and washed out the lubrication and all of the ground connections are rusty and need to be taken apart and cleaned. If you have 1 bad wheel bearing it is usually a good idea to replace both front bearings. Check the fluids in the trans and final unit, brake and clutch fluids, CV boots for cuts steering rack boots, the frame for general rust.Lubricate the parking brake cables and speedo cable, and grease the rod ends. Expect further problems.:( David Teitelbaum vin 10757 --- In dmcnews@xxxx, Soma576@xxxx wrote: > Hey all, > > the news just keeps getting worse it seems! > tonight, everywhere i turned, something new wasn't working right. and i'm > not just talking about my crappy running, either. totally unrelated stuff. > portions of this message have been removed]
