    Stalling problem

    That sounds possible........and yes it was very low before I filled it, but it still stalled. I will take off the belt this weekend and see if that is the problem....thanks.

    Stalling problem

    Stalled again....while driving home, everything was fine....while stopped at a traffic light, just to see what was going to happen, I turned the wheel slightly and my car instantly stalled. It started right back up with no problem.....I do want to figure out how to make this stop happening.

    Need help getting off tie-rod ends

    I have always used a pickle fork......the last time I was using the fork on a balljoint, and I beat the hell out of it, but it would not break free. I went out and bought a 4lb hammer so I could hit it harder.....it broke free with about 3 hits using the heavier hammer.

    Stalling problem

    Come on guys!!!.....I figured out myself what I think may have been the problem......when I would turn the wheel, while stopped, the rpm would drop to below 500 and sometimes stall. I opened up the power steering res and it was extremely low. I had worked on the suspension a few weeks ago, and...

    Problem with new suspension

    I installed the same springs a few weeks ago and I am disappointed in the results....the rears look like they sag (compared to the front) and the rear will bottom out from time to time (yes, I installed the small bottom out bumper)......but the fronts look like they have not been lowered much if...

    Stalling problem

    Suddenly, my car is stalling, not always, but now and then. If it stalls, it is when maneuvering around a parking lot, or backing out in the morning. It always starts right back up, and shows no sign of a stall when driving, and it will not stall when stopping at a light. Here are the...

    How do I remove LCA bolts?

    I did not get to the LCA bolts this past weekend as I had hoped, so I have not had a chance to try to take them out. Yes, I have an air hammer, but I have not used it. I am not sure how to use it cause the stupid thing comes with no directions. I bought a 5 piece set that goes with the...

    Eibach springs on crappy shocks/struts

    OK...I give up....I drove it to work this morning and it was like a dune buggy on a flat highway (not literally, but I there was a lot of bounce and It is coming from the rear)....not really a recoil type bounce, I can feel every crack in the road. I pushed down on the rear and it simply...

    Thanks for the advice....I won't worry about it, and just start looking for a damper made for an Eibach/lowering spring.

    Replacing calipers and rotors - any tips, advice?

    Hmmm...I don't have a Cobra (wish I did) but rotors usually just come off without any effort.....some rotors may have little retaining clips on the studs.

    Eibach springs on crappy shocks/struts

    I drove on the new springs for a week with new front struts, without a problem...then this past weekend, I installed the rears and when first driving it, the car felt like I was bouncing down the freeway with every crack in the road. I read on the Monroe website something about expanding and...

    Eibach springs on crappy shocks/struts

    Oops..... Oops....I found this on the Monroe website......I used my air-ratchet on the rear mounts in the trunk and my impact on the strut mounts under the hood. I think the fronts are fine, but I may have blown up the rears. During assembly Do not use an air impact wrench as there is a...

    Eibach springs on crappy shocks/struts

    I installed Eibach Pro-Kit springs and since I had Monroe Sensatrac shocks/springs I took them in and swapped them for new ones (lifetime warrenty)....I plan to upgrade the shocks when cash becomes available. Now my car rides like a freaking dune-buggy......since my car is lowered, is that...

    Need help on front end noise

    I had squeeks, groans, and clunking, and it was extremely embarrassing. I had what looked like a leak in my steering rack, so I replaced that and I still had squeeks. Next I replaced the tie rod ends, and I still had squeeks. Next I replaced the ball joints, and that was the problem....no...

    How do I remove LCA bolts?

    I think I figured it out I thought of something I can try to get the frozen bolts to bust loose....(I can get the nuts off, but the bolts won't budge) I could use the ball joint press on the left side(front) bolt and see if that will break it loose....If that works, there should be enough...

    Installed Pro-Kit springs...questions and I have a hum noise.

    Yikes.....I have new bushings already from En. Susp, and a torch, but I tried to burn a nut off one time before and all I did was make it red...I end up using a circ saw and a diamond blade and cutting the nut off. I'll try the PB, Liquid Wrench, heat idea and see where that gets me. I...

    How do I remove LCA bolts?

    I did not try heat....I was in the middle of doing a complete suspension job of struts (and energy suspension bushings so I had to burn off the rubber thing in the shock tower cone thingy, what a mess), shocks, ball joints, springs, rack bushings, tie rod ends, hmmmm...all by myself and had to...
