After going through all the grounds, fuses, taking apart the fusible link to ensure everything was clean... It was the starter.

Well, I pulled and cleaned all the ground locations that I could access, and pulled and cleaned the battery connections. Still having same issue. First start in the morning is fine. Second time starting is still okay. Then progressively turning over slower and slower each time. Battery voltage...

So back during the winter when we where having single digit lows, my 00 LX started turning over very slowly, but would start. Knowing I had an older battery, but still under warranty, I replaced it and slow starting went away for a while. About rwo months ago, it started doing the slow turn...

Anybody know what gauge the old sending unit wire is as it goes behind the serpentine belt? Need to splice mine after the mechanic didn't tie it back far enough. Tha ks.

These use H7 bulbs instead of stock H1 and mine came with them.

Thanks. When I bought mine 5 years ago, I replaced the original with new OEM glass because the silver in the old ones had faded so bad they didn't reflect anything forward anymore. I've ordered the DEPO lights. I'll get two for the price of one. I'm not looking to get brighter, just a new...

Anybody try these: https://www.amazon.com/USR-FJ100-Black-Housing-Headlights/dp/B09H3K6VCP/?tag=ihco-20 The glass on one of mine is broken and Trying to decide whether to replace it with stock or with these. Opinions appreciated.

Has anyone successfully replaced just the glass on their headlights? I replaced both assemblies on mine about 2 years ago when I realized I basically had no headlights because all the silver had faded after 20 years. Yesterday I noticed that one of them now has a crack in the glass. I have the...

Well after a week in the shop, a new crank position sensor and a ECM, the old girl is back in the road. Now to let my poor wallet recover.

I'd have to find the service history again but don't remember seeing that it had been changed before. Previous owner took very good care of it, with the exception of timing belts and fixing a leak in the a/c system.

Codes: don't know, he only mentioned a misfire code and I didn't need a code reader for that. My code reader is in my daughter's boyfriend's car at the moment. Not sure what connection had been repaired or when, but it ran fine before this. It's in the valley between cyclinder banks,near the...
