Answers to 1, 2, & 8 can be found in your owners manual and workshop manual. To answer questions number 4 & 5 go to http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Flats/3755/stainless.html The answer to question # 10 is, the hose you are describing is the clutch fluid line, if it is black in color you will need to install the stainless steel up grade http://store.yahoo.com/dsvstore/test1.html to prevent damage to your transmission.

Here are some dumb owner Qs 1 - What type of oil do you prefer. 2 - Should you add oil if on a cool engine the oil level is between the two nick marks on the dip stick. 3 - What air pressure do you run in front and rear. 4 - What is the best thing to clean the stainless steel. 5 - With what do you wax or seal the stainless steel. 6 - Do you like Armoral for the interior (except the steering wheel) 7 - How do you wash the car. ie. one should avoid spraying a hose or high pressure wand over or into the engine... right?? 8 - Do you change oil filters with every oil change and air cleaner too, or every other change. And do you change oil every 3,000 miles or more. 9 - What do you use to blacken up the exterior parts, like the baskets and bumper/fascia. Armoral or what? 10 - There is a hose about the size of a #2 pencil coming off of the inside of the front driver's side wheel, visible under the car which appears to access the brakes !!??) It hangs down too much and I fear it will catch on a piece of road trash. What is it. Thanks for responding. New-to-me #2912, August 81. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
