Check the vacuum line to PTC for PCV

I recently changed out the PCV system at the first signs of it being clogged (leaking oil, white smoke from tube). I ordered the kit from IDP. The kit "kinda" fit but thats not the reason for the post. After installing the new PCV the syptoms did not subside. After scratching my head for a...

Re: Searching for Factory fog light kit.

My 850 came with a set of T5 fog lights. The previous owner installed them but never got to wiring them. To bypass cost of the "special relay" and switch I pulled a standard relay from under the fuse box(not the expensive fog light relay) and a rear marker switch from a donor 850 at the pu...

Re: Fuel tank recall for 2004. Do recalls expire?

I called my local dealer earlier this week to see if mine had been repaired. He took the last 6 #'s off the vin and looked it up. Mine had not been repaired but is covered, He said to bring it in if I wanted but I was not getting the "paying customer" attitude. From what I can tell its 3 b...

Re: "Performance" exhaust on 95 850GLT

Your sig says your are in Altanta. There are at least 10 850's in the Pull a part yards all over Atlanta. Go pull one of the stock exhaust units and sell yours and make a few bucks.

95 850 turbo gas line issue, fuel pump question

Lately I smelt gas pretty hard after a fill up when driving especially with drivers window down. Today when filling up I notice a spill out as soon as the tank topped off. Well its my turn to deal with that 3/4" fuel line leaking when topping off the tank. Tonight I got a chance to take a close...

Re: 95 850 fix odometer now reads miles too fast

No problem.

Do you know what sends the signal (sine wave?) that triggers the motor in the odo to turn. Is it in the instrument cluster itself?Just thinking that may need to be replaced.

I have read where a few have seen this problem but no resolutions.

Thanks.
