    air bag disconnect

    Ok, popped the panel off the passenger side dash and found an empty cavity above the glove box, therefore this relic has but one airbag in the steering wheel, probably a prelude to the new era.

    ABS senor location?

    Betting someone can describe the part and point me to where I find the ABS sensor please and thanks? Some one told me a while back there was a bearing in the master cylinder that can stick cause ABS light to stay on or something to that effect which is what I am addressing.

    It began randomly rather than every time driven, but now every time shut down she spews a full sized puddle unless VERY low (low enough for slipping)the result of this condition.

    ABS idiot lights

    Being old school I like to pump em when and if I need to, however, the wife thinks this is not good lol. What is on are the "ABS" light and the shoes in a drum picture. Shoes, rotors, pads and sliders are all new in the spring so this must be an electrical issue I gather. Any ideas where to...

    Timing chain???

    In the old days we could rotate the distributor enough to find out if the timing chain were gone. I confess having no idea how to determine if this is my problem. She seemed to run fine to me until one morning it was a rough idle, gave it a shot of fuel and was good to drive across the yard and...
