OK, newbie question but better safe than sorry! I see the jack holes in the sides and the factory jack in the trunk, but that just doesn't seem like the best choice for a 34 year old car. In an emerg

Exactly what I ended up doing. It's up on four stands now and it's pretty obvious that my lack of brakes is due to trouble at the left rear where the inside of the wheel is covered with fluid. I also

I keep finding a small amount of brake fluid on top of my master cylinder. I believe the master cylinder caps are vented, and I'm betting I've got air in the lines as I just found one of the wheel cy

Since you're at least getting a click from the solenoid it's not likely to be your ignition switch. You can always have the battery tested but I'd personally not waste time trying to test a 6 year ol
