i tried searching didn't come up with much maybe i'm not searching correctly. anyway the 99 is a phase 2 so i'm hoping it will work any info would be greatly appreciated

make sure you put 12v before diode and not after i think thats one thing i did wrong and then vroom

i just put a new belt on but it seems the painted markings on the belt aren't quite right. left side is close but right seems off by a tooth. if i put marks on with cam marking i can't get belt on. the count of teeth seems correct for each side.anyone had this problem its a pci timing set i believe they're the same as dealer any help would be great thanks

i drive the pass 6-7 days a week for the last 14 yrs for work and the salt is 100 times worse!!! slush is much more dangerous than ice and that is exactly what you get when you ad salt! compact snow and ice for me anyday salt is a bunch of bs! -

on the passes its sprayed i think its the mag cloride and the lower areas both state and county is straight salt they say the sand is killing fish which is weird never see any fish in the ditch and yes it kills the trees lining the highway if you watch as you drive you'll notice its dead as far as the plows can shoot it sucks bad as a pass veteran working there for past 14 years i really miss sanding of the roads i'd take a chipped windsheild anyday over rought it really likes eating brakes like you can't believe
