Re: 91 legacy sedan needs to go
So here are some pics of the exterior. Car has not been driven since my original post to ensure no further damage has been done. I just posted this on Craigslist, so I thought I'd put it on here too in case someone was looking for a pretty good parts car (especially the transmission), or just to may...

Re: 91 legacy sedan needs to go
226k miles on the car, maybe 150 on the engine (it had 79k on it when it was put in 6.5 years ago). The A/C has never worked and I don't know why. Power windows and mirrors and cruise control are really the only options. Exterior is that of a used 20-year-old car: Silver trunk lid, ruby body, faded ...

91 legacy sedan needs to go
I need to get my legacy to a new home, preferably as-is (it runs okay, so parting it out seems like a waste). It is sounding like there is some brand new lifter noise, but the auto tranny was rebuilt by AAMCO just over 21k miles ago. Fresh battery and remanned starter. I am just seeing if anyone wou...

Re: Complicated battery/starter issue
Wow. So I made it another 4.5 days without a starting issue....again.... After a new ignition switch, we really do seem to be okay. It did not start at all with the old ignition, even after a dozen attempts at wiggling the key and wires under the dash. It started right up half a dozen times after th...

Re: Complicated battery/starter issue
As for the questions coming up so far: -the alternator was tested yesterday via the battery while running, and was at 14. The lights would work even when the car wouldn't start. But jumping worked 3 of the 4 times in the last week... -the positive cable is brand new as of 3 days ago, so no corrosion...

Re: Complicated battery/starter issue
Wonderful new problem. Car lasted an entire day before needing a jump. Now, after driving 1 mile and parking for 10 mins, it won't even jump. it has 700 cold cranking amps.....it is now much more likely to be the starter somehow....

Complicated battery/starter issue
Somehow my battery is getting drained, and I am only making a new post because the old ones I found while searching did not involve a major issue with the starter. Sorry this is so long, but there is nothing consistent about the symptoms and the whole story is needed to really get all the necessary ...

car minus tranny
alright. right now it looks like i will be either selling my car with a bad tranny or parting her out. this is just a heads up, nothing definitive. but it is looking like i am 80-90% sure i'm not keeping her because i cannot afford to rebuild the tranny and it is more beneficial for me to get a newe...

tranny????

i actually did unplug the ground on my battery to clear the memory and then did the diagnostic. i'm pretty sure at least my O2 sensor is bad and possibly my air flow sensor (a used one was put in early august) because i'm only getting around 16 mpg, with about 40% of those hwy. but i'll definitely c...

Need sensors
I've been really bothered by the check engine light coming on consistently for 2 months, so I decided to do the self-diagnosis thing by unplugging the 2 cables under the steering wheel. What the results showed were several issues. I have problems with my: air flow sensor (even though it was replaced...

my baby was stolen from me...
ouch...so long story short, suzie q was stolen while i was at boot camp. the jackasses decided to run her up on a log to create a lift so they could steal my rims, and in the process crushed my exhaust and cracked my rotors. then they punched the lock on my trunk out so they could steal my subs and ...
