I was thinking of going with the 10w that was stated in the service manual I've got, but a stiffer spring and 7w fluid would be better? (As in...
It has 64k km or 40k mi on the dial, but it is an import, so it might be false, or not. Let's say my budget is very constrained, but I love the...
Doubt that the fluid has ever been changed, it's almost black. Can we get a repair kit for the main and slave cylinders to swap seals and make...
Some do claim that automobile oils with "fuel conserving", "ESP Formula" and the likes on the labels, have extra friction reducers in them...
Hi, over 60k mi sounds quite good to me. Unless it's a second set. My '90 has 64k km on the meter and it works fine when I totally let go of the...

Agreed, around here the 1st-5th gen asking prices have been about 1/3 or 1/2 of what they are really worth. For a couple years now. I think that...
Thanks for pointing out the clear flaw in my reasoning. And that of many, that the marketing B.S. dept. is more than gladly abusing, and...
I believe you are correct. Been up the car world for all my adulthood, so all mechanical/electronic experience comes from there. So I just read a...
I assume you meant that the alternator always puts out 100%, well no. The stator does not generate excess power, the rectifier draws that excess....
