Wow, I've never seen that. I say leave well enough alone. Agree?

A bolt is a bolt and a nut is a nut. Just different grades or materials. I stripped the locking nut on my balljoint spindle so I went to the hardware store and got the exact replacement. Cheaper grade metal, but it does the job. Go for it I say.

It absolutely does not pass any test whatsoever. My day to day car is a mustang. It has 204,000 miles on it and runs perfectly thanks to a similar exhaust repair two days ago. You need to take it to a real muffler shop like I did. Muffler shops (this one is a mom and pop shop) have...

oops, didn't realize you figured it out, sorry. Curious about the pic though.

And of course, my coworker wasn't there today so I'll get the pic tomorrow.

hose I replaced the starter on a friend's '96 last summer. We got everything hooked up (or so we thought) and tried to start the car. It sounded normal when he first turned the key to begin starting, but the revving during the starting process slowed down to a near stop kind of like the...

Ron, I'm curious what you ended up doing. Did you take it to the first place you mentioned or did you shop around?

Just the pedal itself is getting harder to push? That seems more a mechanical problem. Not internal clutch problems as the pedal just squishes to the floor easily, or engages closer and closer to the floor. Hmm, time to bleed the clutch? I'm not sure.

new rotors out of the box I've installed several pairs of rotors over the years. Just spray clean the rotors with some Brakleen. It will wash away the film of oil that's on them from the factory. And it dries/evaps very quickly - i use a new rag to wipe them too. It's the brake surface you...

Did you get the clutch done? Just curious.
