    quick valve cover questions

    If you just need to replace the exhaust cam plug on the left side as you face the car from the front, there is a cap that has to come off to do this. If you have a vtec engine, it is more difficult. Check the how to section for a tutorial. Hondabond and Permatex Ultra Grey are supposed to be...

    Yeah, and fill it with urine...the older the better.

    Headlights in reverse lights?

    Put some pet poop on the exhaust pipe. No one will tail gate you then. I've thought of gluing an empty drink can to the bumper, or some rocks. Get a blue dome light with a button to make it flash on. Might even be legal.

    DIY: Change gauge cluster lights/ Under dash neons

    The little bitty ones are like a #74. There's also one a couple numbers lower, maybe #72 and then there's like a #34. All the same size but the diff is maybe .2 watts difference. 1.1, 1.2, 1.4 or thereabouts.

    Brakes stopped working

    Isn't a dash light supposed to come on for low fluid? Anyway, add fluid and test brakes. May need to bleed air from the lines. BTW...why was it low? Brake fluid doesn't just disappear. Sounds like you should have the whole system checked for a leak.

    GA Winder Sonic Meet Dec. 5

    I've got a family engagement that day plus work. Also, it is a bit far for me. Isn't that out past Lawrenceville? Went to school with a guy from Winder...Freddie McMillan. He looked a lot like Peter Fonda. At least back then he did.

    Cold air intake?

    From what I've seen of cold air intakes, it appears they are behind the radiator and not too far from the exhaust. Do they really get colder air there?

    Nice car. What country are you in? Think about some kind of theft deterrant if you're not already ;)

    DIY: Amber interior lighting

    I made up the symbols for printing. It is in .png format so let me know if you can't view it. Photoshoppers feel free to improve this. I don't have a clue how to size it correctly other than trial and error...

    how to clean drainage line on moonroof

    There is some stuff for cleaning home heating system sump pumps but I dont' know how suitable it would be for cars. Suggest contacting the dealer. Auto parts stores might could recommend something. Let us know what you find out. We all should probably use something annually.

    DIY: Amber interior lighting

    I distorted my symbols also. The only fix I can think of is to print out symbols and put them inside the buttons. Due to the risk of messing up your buttons, I don't recommend using nail polish remover.

    Horn won't honk

    A horn is legally required in most places but what good is it? Most people use them to vent anger and my neighbors all use them as door bells. Honk honk, anybody home?

    Rough and bouncing idle when cold?

    It is my opinion that most mods adversely affect gas mileage. Try synthetic oil, maybe higher tire pressure...there's only so much you can do short of buying a car that gets better gas mileage.

    Car won't start, Help!

    Timing is way off? Look at the easy stuff first...plugs, points (if it has them), distributor rotor and cap. If you're clueless, take it to a mechanic.

    idle and shifting trouble

    How's the fluid level? Any chance this tranny is worn out? Smell the tranny fluid and if it smells burnt, that's not good.

    97 Teg hazard and rear defrost button removal

    Oh ok. It was kinda dark in there. I want to replace the little light bulbs...they are 168LL's. No, that's wrong...they're like 72's or 74's or 34's. The difference between the three is like .2 watts so I got the 74's which have the most watts. They were like $4.49 for two at Autozone.
