    trying to install a air mix damper servomotor

    I hope all is well for everyone. I purchased this ole girl with the missing servo motor that controls the air mix damper. The previous owner removed it so I have no idea where it goes. The dealership tells me it mounts under the heater box (under the dash behind the glove box). Any...

    Anybody interested in a rear coolant line repair write-up??

    Very nice, and simple from the looks of it. Moving up to the Mid-west I'll probably have to do this in the coming years.

    Is 91 octane really over kill on a 3rd gen?

    We started running 87 shortly after buying. Within weeks we noticed sluggish response, and rough idle. Did a complete tune up, and oil change thinking that was the issue. Drove that way for a bit thinking it would settle. Last month we went back to 91, and the rough idle and sluggishness...

    How much did you pay for your 3rd gen?

    What does it take to get to 400,000 miles?
