Runs great pretty much all of the time, but all in the span of a several weeks these have plagued me:
Had a noisy PS pump, replaced and noise went away.
TPS went south and caused a funky/high idle. Replaced and idle is nice now.
Always seem to run cold so I replaced the thermostat and temp sending unit. Worked well.
Oh, that PS pump noise...well, it wasn't the PS pump at all. My ears were fooled. It was the rather new water pump installed by the PO a couple thousand mile ago. It began to chatter again soon after I did the t-stat and temp sending unit and also began to leak quite a bit. It kind of sounds like the mutant ants from "Them".
NOT looking forward to tearing into that. Hopefully the ghost that lives in my engine bay is off haunting some other mechanical contraption.
I must have rolled across an indian burial site at some point.
