    2.3L newby questions

    I can't answer those questions, but I own two of the little buggers ('89 vert & '91 hatch). The automatic tranny is the main weak point in these cars. If you've got an auto, it WILL go bad. Roadmasters Transmission sells a reman one with two year warranty for $750, with upgraded components...

    A4LD..2 or 3 wire?

    Spring Pictures & A White Squirrel

    You live in Olney, Illinois, one of only two places in the world with white squirrels. Been there. White squirrels are cool. There are black squirrels in my neighborhood, but I don't think they're nearly as rare as white squirrels. Nice car, BTW.
