Andy - do you remember much of the details of the failures? Your car has pretty low mileage, and that may be a clue. What would be interesting to know is: Does your car sit for long periods of time without use? If so, how long after a long rest did the angle drive fail? Were there any warnings before the failures - bouncing speedo needle, inaccurate speed readings? -- Mike -------------- Original message from "andy" <andydandy777@xxxxxxx>: -------------- I am Andy Blackmon the owner of 03513. I have owned this car since 1982. The car has 31,000 miles on it and has had 4 angle drives. The one on it now is working fine but I do not trust it. If John or anyone can make a better angle drive or one that may be better (cant be worse) I will buy one and keep it in my glove box just as a back up. Oh, by the way after changing 4 angle drives i am very > good at it, but would like to never do it again. > > Andy Blackmon 03513 > > > > ------------------------------------ > > To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: > moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx > > For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com > To search the archives or view files, log in at > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnewsYahoo!
