    Moron A/C question

    I am trying to recharge the A/C on my GN- I think that's why it isn't working. I got the can of R134-A, the cheap gauge that comes with the retrofit kit from AutoZone, plugged it into the low side accumulator port, turned on the A/C and started the car. It's not sucking the stuff out of the...

    Vacuum line/diagram for A/C

    I had my tranny rebuilt/replaced a few weeks ago and since then the A/C doesn't switch modes, it blows out of the top of the dash and on my feet all the time. It does change from cold to hot and back. I think a vacuum line is disconnected/broken? Which one is it likely to be? I don't have a...

    Car Starts, idles, coughs/sputters/no power

    Ok. I have an '87 GN, stock except for a Poston's chip, and it has an alarm and a Ravelco anti-theft device. The car starts fine. It idles fine. When I push the throttle, especially uphill, it sputters, runs roughly (like it's dieseling) and coughs and tries to die. It has no power and...

    Coil Pack

    My car died yesterday (thankfully it made it to work and then died) but it coughed and sputtered and wouldn't move. Starts fine but won't go anywhere in gear. I *think* (I hope) it's just the coil pack- but this means I need one right away! Who can get one to me in Atlanta today/tomorrow...

    Electrical problems in Atlanta

    My '87 is having all kinds of electrical stupidity. It has a non-factory alarm and non-factory stereo with a sub added and door speakers added, but most of these problems happened before any of that were done. The dash lights go out when the headlights are on. I have replaced the fuse and...

    Shock Removal

    We are having a problem with removing the front shocks, they are the originals. The nut at the top of the rod is rusted on there and cannot be removed, when we try to remove it, the rod that is part of the shock turns. We tried wD 40, heating it, and cutting the rod. Any suggestions?
