    Re: Power Steering Leak

    Hi Tim,
    Digging into this specific leak (flow control port).
    I pulled the cap and there was no O-ring on it.
    All the ones in the suggested Edelman kit seem too thick to fit in the groove there. I...

    Re: Liftgate / Rear hatch alignment frustrations

    I had the same issue while replacing the hatch. Had to constantly readjust but tightened it when the hatch was up. Also, if you adjust the pucks on the sides of the hatch it will change the gap and...

    Re: Daystar KT09100BK coil spring spacer

    Question to those who have used the spacers. Do you have to order two sets? I assumed that one box would cover both springs but it appears that there are two different spacers in one box (maybe a top...

    Re: Radiator for 4WD

    I think the system is good otherwise. Recent fan clutch, new t-stat, etc.
    Also old (and presumably stock) thermo was shot, stuck open. Replaced with OEM.

    I have been chasing a mild overheating issue for a while which then turned into a leak from the stock radiator. After, a lot of reading and researching, I decided that a recore would be the way to...

    Re: Timing, Smog, and Loss of Power-Help!

    My van passed all of the emissions related stuff but failed due to the timing being off. I assume the timing was off since I had changed the distributor cap and rotor. Then the guys in the shop timed...

    Re: 89 4x4 hesitation, I got codes

    Thats good advice. Thanks.
    What about if I run the diagnostic and see if it comes back as O2 sensor again assume the rear is bad?

    Re: 89 4x4 hesitation, I got codes

    Update:
    So I replaced the front O2 sensor with a new one. I could not get the rear one off. After some research I think this one might not affect the system?

    Anyway, the van runs better than...

    Re: 89 4x4 hesitation, I got codes

    Thanks Tim,
    Do you think the 5-1 code- EGR system could cause this issue as well? Should I address this last, after 02 sensors and TPS?
    Also, do you have a link to a good source for a new TPS?...
